Lanette Blodgett: A great elementary school. We have had 6 students go through BLE. Our children have been excelling at the standardized testing and that gives me peace of mind. My favorite thing about BLE is that the students are placed in classes matched to their individual learning ability. For example 3rd graders may get to go to 5th grade for math, reading or spelling if they are at that ability. No forms, notices, meetings or requests it just quietly happens. This school has been excellent for our students and we have both the gifted and the slightly learning disabled.
