We are a military family and our kids have attended several schools. BES is really a hidden gem. I'm not really sure I understand all the negativity in these (mostly older) posts but I think a refresh is needed in the ratings. BES has the AMES (gifted and talented) program for the area and it is out
Posted by a parent on 2/4/2020This the 5th Elementary school I've had kids in at feel this among the top. A great atmosphere appears to have found itself in this place since the 7 years from the negative review. The greatschools rating has increased during this time also. Something good is happening there.

I love this school. Don't get me wrong there are some issues that need to be dealt with. Like Bullying and children not wanting to learn, but it is not totally up to the teachers. Parents need to help with this too. You need to remember this school is under a new Principal and she can not get everyt
Posted by a parent on 3/23/2010This school has serious racial issues that are not addressed nor throughly investigated. The majority of the children that attend this school are not interested in learning and therefore distract those that want to learn. I am not confident the teachers have control of the classroom and may feel som

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI have two children at this school and I love it! We moved to this neighborhood just so my children could attend this school. There are always two people to help unload the kids in the morning and help open/shut car doors. Everyone is so friendly and the children love it as well! Can't say enough about how much we love this school!Parent Review12y ago - Coosa Elementary School

The teachers here are wonderful and make the kids feel safe and welcomed. Each teacher my daughter had was amazing and she learned so much well being here, we are sad to be leaving this wonderful school. Keep up the awesome job coosa elementary!!Parent Review3y ago - St. Peters Catholic School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageVery poor education. Limited resources. Poor classroom management skills. Lacking discipline. Doesn’t help push students academically and doesn’t hold children accountable. Principal has a lot of grandchildren that go to this school and causes a lot of trouble for other children. There’s a lot of, “do you know who my grandma is?” And, “my mom works here, I’m going to tell on you.” Being a VERY small school, you can’t escape the tension. Wouldn’t recommend this school.Parent Review4mo ago - Beaufort Academy

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSubpar. This school clearly allows any child in. They do not enforce the written dress code. 80% of the teachers are under 25 and have little to no experience. Class sizes are HuGe. And parent concerns are not recognized.Parent Review6y ago - Ec Montessori & Grade School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am a former student of this school that had left in the year 2022 and any parent who wants their child to be send to this school, please, do not. I was bullied by multiple kids and even when I was bullied in front of the teacher, the teacher did not do anything. Even after I had told my parents, these kids still did it in front of the teacher and no one did anything. Extremely disappointed of this school, I can’t believe it’s even considered a Christian school.Other Review3mo ago
