Reyna Ramos, in Mrs. Rylee's homeroom, is the Bus Rider of the Month for January! She won some awesome prizes for being a great example to others on the bus. Her bus driver, Mr. Steve Turpin, won a gift card to Zaxby's and a free combo at Arbys!

These students were the overall Leopard Buck Winners for the month of January! Leopard bucks are given out by faculty members to students who go above and beyond the behavioral expectations at BCES. Our behavior motto is, "All day every day, remember, a Leopard always ROARS!" This means that our students are Respectful, show Ownership for their actions, have a positive Attitude, are Responsible, and are Safe. 

Congratulations to Malik Wiley, Kobe Minish, and Dulce Maria Rojas for being a positive example for others at school!
