Berry Elementary School

I am a teacher at Berry Elementary School. BES is a smaller school, but we use it to our advantage. We strive to prepare all children to become productive members of society. BES is also an AMSTI school- this means that we are giving the students' the math, science, and technology background they need in high school and college. I am proud to work with the great faculty and staff at Berry Elementary School.

I think Berry Elementary is a great school. I went there, now my daughter attends. We are very blessed to have loving and caring teachers and principal. My daughter has been a honor student since kindergarten thanks to the teachers encouraging her to do her best. Tracy Brown, Rhonda Wright, Mary Cunningham, Debbie Smelley and Ashley Higgins and Coach Thomas are some of the best teachers. They have left a positive influence on my daughter.

My child started to school at BES in 1996. She got a great start in her education there with terrific kindergarten teachers that cared deeply for their children. During her next six years, she was encouraged to do her best. She was motivated to learn by teachers that enjoyed teaching. Because of those that told her that she could do the impossible, she strived to do her best which she did making straight A's in all subject's thoughout her elementary years. As a parent that work with each of my child's teachers by volunteering, I admired how they conducted themselves in class, how they care for each child, helping teach one on one with those that needed that extra little help weather it was reading or math. They were always willing to go that extra miles. I would recommend our school to anyone who has a child ready for school.

All I can say about Berry Elementary school was that it was a very positive influence in my life, due mostly to the huge efforts of Wanda Harbin. She is a frist grade teacher in that school and is wonderful. She put her heart into everything she did. Even built a reading loft from her own pocket to help encourage children to read. What a wonderful role model she was for me. She made learning fun. When you where in her class you got the best attention, and always positive attention. She read to us students, and even made the things we didn't like fun. Thanks Wanda! Always, Jessie Odell Palm Beach Florida

This is a great little school! My son went here for K and first grades. The teachers go above and beyond the call of duty for their kids. The one on one interaction is incredible. The teachers and the principal know all of the children by name.
