Read Across America at BES
At Brownstown Elementary, we celebrated Read Across America and the importance of reading with our students. It was a great day filled with books, stories, and conversations that remind us how powerful reading can be for our kids.
Building a love for reading at an early age is important, and it is something we focus on every day at BES. When students enjoy reading, they grow in confidence and open the door to learning in every subject.
Thank you to our teachers and staff for making reading exciting and meaningful for our students.
Work Hard. Be Nice. Read.
The BES Brave Way.

We are proud of you, Henry! Keep working hard and showing that Brave Pride!
