SCHOOL TOURS

Historically our in-person Open House events are followed by a tour of the BCE campuses, including the Billingsville Campus for K-2 students, and the Cotswold campus for 3-5 students.  We hope to soon be able to welcome families back on campus, after school hours for small group tours.  More info will be announced at the first Virtual Open House.  In the meantime, our PTA has prepared a Virtual Tour to showcase our facilities including large classrooms, outdoor learning options, and state-of-the-art STEAM Lab.  Both of our campuses feature dedicated spaces for Media, Spanish, Art, Music, and Physical Education.
