Principal's Message
Dear BCES Families, It is truly an honor to be the principal of Banks County Elementary School. As a lifelong resident and former student of Banks County, I look forward to working together with you to continue to make children our first priority at BCES.
I firmly believe that every child deserves the very best we have to offer! BCES is a very special place with highly qualified and caring teachers and support staff who go the extra mile to meet students' needs. Here at BCES, our priorities are: student safety, student learning, and student experience. We are committed to keeping all students safe, to maximizing learning for all students, and to creating a welcoming and fun elementary school experience for all students.
We strongly encourage our parents and community members to be an active part of the educational process as we strive for excellence. With a strong partnership between home and school, we will be able to work together to best meet the needs of your child. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions, concerns, or ideas you would like to share.
