Beggs Elementary School

Newsletter should be coming home today!

Good evening! Beggs Public Schools will resume tomorrow. After amazing hard work from our maintenance crew, they have fixed the issue and restored the water to the campus. If you see any of them please tell them thank you! We hope you have a great evening and we will see everyone tomorrow. It's a great day to be a Golden Demon.

Pepsqueakers deadline extended.

Good morning! Beggs public school will not be in session today. There is a blown water line that feeds the campus causing the campus to be without water. We are sorry for the inconvenience but we are working diligently to restore it. Thank you for your understanding and it's a great day to be Demon.

Practice your smile. School pictures are coming soon.

Town route is running late but it will be picking up. Sorry for the inconvenience.

We are looking for substitutes.

Transportation Update We want to thank our parents and students for their patience as we work through some transportation challenges during the first few days of school. We have had several substitute drivers and a few unexpected bus issues, which have caused some delays and confusion with routes. We are working closely with our transportation staff to get routes and drivers settled into a consistent routine as quickly as possible. We understand that changes and delays can be frustrating, and we appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding as we work through these first few days. Our goal is to make sure all of our students get to and from school safely and efficiently. Thank you for your continued support and patience! We appreciate our Beggs families! 💛🖤

Good evening BES! We had an amazing day 1! Just a few reminders for tomorrow: Parents will not be allowed to walk students in or to the door, please use the car drop off line. Now that we have the rust shaken off and kinks figured out, our car pick up and bus home will go much smoother and quicker! Have a great night see everyone in the morning! 💛🖤
