Good afternoon BESD families please view the ELKS Hoop Shoot Flyer! Children participating must be between ages 8 - 13 and entry is FREE! Contest will take place at Brawley Union High School on 12/6/25.

Next week is Inclusive Schools Week, and we are excited to highlight and celebrate the progress our schools have made in providing a supportive, welcoming, and high-quality education for all students—including those with disabilities. This is a wonderful opportunity to recognize the collaborative efforts of our teachers, staff, students, and families who work every day to ensure that every learner feels valued, supported, and included.


Our schools will be closed for Thanksgiving Break from Monday, November 24, 2025 through Friday, November 28, 2025. Classes will resume on Monday, December 1, 2025.


Mark your calendar for 2 magical evenings of music and holiday cheer! We hope to see you at BESD's 2025 Christmas Music Concerts to celebrate the season and support our talented student musicians and chorus members.
