Biography

I do believe that there was indoor plumbing, electricity, and television when I graduated from high school many moons ago.  I graduated from Carrollton High in June of 1966.  I received my Bachelor of Science Degree in September of 1970 from Central Michigan University.  While teaching in Niles, I attended Indiana University at South Bend and completed a Master of Science in Education in August of 1978.  During my twenty years of teaching grades three through six, a decision was made to work on an administrative license.  Since 1991, I have been an elementary principal with my last six years employed by the Bridgman Public Schools.

 

Safety Procedures at BES are meant to prepare students in the case of a real emergency.

  • Fire Drills are conducted six times a year with weather permitting.
  • Safety Drills are held twice a year, in the fall and spring.  These drills are for internal or external threats to the building.
  • Storm/Severe Weather Drills are also held in the fall and spring of every school year.

 

The BES School Day

  •     8:00 The main doors open of early arriving students.
  •     8:15 All the students enter the building.
  •     8:25 The tardy bell begins to ring.
  •     3:32 The office begins the intercom dismissal process.
  •     3:35 The bell rings to indicate the end of the day

The BES Handbook is also on the web and answers many generic questions related to building policies and expectations.
