I would encourage parents to get involved in the school by volunteering. It's a great way to get to know the staff and see how the school runs. They seem to average around 20-22 students per class. I would highly recommend BGE to anyone moving into the area. Read less

My son has been attending BGE since 1st grade and is getting ready to begin 4th. He has done extremely well and I believe the teachers deserve the credit. I strongly support the school's policy on behavior; I believe they are strict but fair. The school's agenda books are also great. I like that

Also too much emphasis is put on perfect attendance, my daughter hates to stay home when she is sick because she won't get the reward at the end of the quarter. A plus for the school is it is basically on lock down during school hours, only one entrance is open. But this also means you can't walk your child to class in the morning. Read less
