We have just begun our realtionship with this school, and have been nothing but impressed thus far. We have been at a private school for several years. However, the excellence that this school offers in both an academic and social environment could no longer be overlooked. Every (I'm not kidding) every admin. staff person, and every teacher has been nothing but open, kind, helpful, and welcoming. Their programs are truly unique and allow the children to excel in their own ways. Their art department is outstanding, as well as their music dept. They have a wonderful reading program, that is maintained buy a fabulous librarian and volunteers. Each teacher's personality shines in their rooms and ways of instruction, while adhering to the many rules of the state. Your child and family would be truly blessed to be able to attend this school.

I had 2 of my children here and I was very pleased with the experience overall. I found the principal to be very caring and involved. My daughter with speech problems was very quickly evaluated and placed in speech therapy. I found that the teachers were very available to meet with you when concerns were brought to their attention. I found the curriculm good and prepared my children well. I think the Kindergarten program needs to be all day to be truly benificial to the kids, but that is not the fault of the teachers. I think they were wonderful and did the best they could with the limited time they had. I think the large classes make it too difficult for the teachers to give any one on one attention, but again, not their fault. Great school!

I have had 2 children go through this school. A couple of years ago, the parent reviews we listed in 2006 I found to be my experience. There was a principal change and I have seen some improvements.They are still more focused on passing the TAKS than kids learning skills & info. There are some good teachers there, but you have to be prepared to spend time there to make sure your child gets the attention they need.Classes are large, kindergarden is still 1/2 day and didn't prepared either of my children for 1st grade. If your child has any challenge, be prepared to fight the school or pay for outside testing or tutoring. When my child got to Intermediate School, the experience was completely different. Same focus on passing the TAKS, but support & actions that made a difference. BPE still has work to do.

As a teacher at this school, I can guarantee you that the students come first. We spend time at nights and on the weekends planning quality instruction for our students. If there are any questions or concerns about a student or teacher, I highly recommend coming in and sharing your concerns. We all work together to provide a quality education for our students.
