Beardsley Elementary School

Katie Gove: I think Beardsley elementary is a good school. They help my daughter get up to the goals that she needs as she goes through grades. There is still some work in process but they accomplished alot since head start. My son also has accomplished very well. He has a high reading level when he was in the first grade, he is in 3rd grade now and still reads wonderful.. Beardsley to me is a great school and I don't think they get appreciated for teaching our children/students the best at what they become and the knowledge the children get as they grow.
