Happy School Counseling Week! We are so thankful for Mrs. Aperance and the amazing things she does for BES each and every day!
Mrs. Aperance supports students, establishes meaningful relationships with families, and advocates for educational equity that helps all children reach their full potential.
If you happen to see Mrs. Aperance, please make sure to thank her for everything she does to help make us the BESt school around!


MCAP is right around the corner!
MCAP is a standardized Maryland state assessment that all of our 3rd and 4th graders take in reading and in math. This assessment is not only important for our school, but also for all of Worcester County Public Schools.
Please mark our MCAP testing days on your calendar. We ask that you do your best to avoid scheduling vacations and other appointments on these days. It is so important that everyone stays healthy and comes to school!
More information about how you can help your student be ready to do their best on MCAP will be coming soon!
