A Note from Principal Webb

The cold weather is here BFES families!

What fantastic performances by our students at the Winter Musicals this week. Thank you to Mrs. Philpot and Mrs. Holbrook for preparing our students and thank you to all of the family members that came! It was truly magical!
All K-5 grade students at BFES have an opportunity to showcase their writing talents in the Young Georgia Author’s (YGA) Writing Competition sponsored by the Georgia Department of Education. The YGA does not require a prompt for students to respond to or provide any other boundaries to their genre choice or creativity beyond having a 1,900-word limit (if typed, double-spaced Times New Roman is preferred). Entries may include: Short Stories, Poetry, Essays/Literary Criticism/Analysis, Journalism, Academic/Research, Reports, Personal Narratives, Any Other Original Student Writing. All writing entries need to be submitted to your child’s teacher by Thursday, January 30, 2025. If you have any questions, please contact Beth Nation at: nation@fultonschools.org.
