BES FACILITY TOWN HALL MEETING
GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT BES BES 1STgrade wing was built in 1959 and completely renovated in 2020. The cost of this renovation was approximately $930,000. In 1983, the Kdg./2ndgrade wing addition occurred. In 1988, the 3rd/4thgrade wing and gym addition occurred.
THE FUTURE OF BES There are current issues we need to address at BES to meet the needs of 21stcentury learners. Student needs have changed over the past 30 years with an inclusion model for unique student needs and new educational techniques and technologies. We are considering moving 5thgrade back to BES. The decision to have a PK-4 BES, a grades 5-8 BMS, and a grades 9-12 BHS was due to space many years ago.
TWO OPTIONS FOR BES One option would be to add on/renovate the current BES. The City of Burlington has given us the land to the north of BES in a Quit Claim Deed. We can use this land as we see fit for the future of BES. A second option would be to build a new BES close to BHS and BMS and create a district campus area within mile of all buildings. We own 17 acres north of Wildcat/Ladycat Baseball and Softball fields we could build on.
PROS FOR ADDING ON/RENOVATING Cost of adding on/renovating BES is about $15 million. Nice playground that is 8 years old. BES exists in a neighborhood setting around many homes. Rapid response time in case of an emergency. Larger cafeteria and fewer lunch periods.
CONS FOR ADDING ON/RENOVATING Renovation will be lengthy, challenging, and disruptive to learning. We are landlocked without additional space for growth. Traffic at drop off and pick up is very difficult. Proximity to the new justice center. Not able to use Wildcat Athletic Complex for school activities.
PROS FOR A NEW BES All buildings will be on one campus. BES could use Wildcat Athletic Complex and BRC for PE classes and special activities. Grounds and maintenance would be able to take care of all facilities in a mile campus. A new school would take care of current needs and future growth. Bus transportation would be more efficient with all schools together.
CONS FOR A NEW BES Cost of a new building will be about $30-$45 million. What do we do with the current BES?
WHAT COULD WE DO WITH THE CURRENT BES? One possible option is to move the BELC into the 1stand 2ndgrade wings, move the board of education office into the building, and offer space to Flint Hills Tech College, Allen County Community College, or Emporia State University for satellite classes. Another possible option is to sell the building.
OTHER FACTORS TO CONSIDER What we do moving forward has bigger implications for the district. Moving 5thgraders back to BES frees up room for growth at BMS. If we decide to build a new BES, we could move the BELC to the current BES. Right now, we have about 55 kids from birth to age 5 attending the BELC. We have a waiting list of about 40. BHS was built to have up to 400 students. Right now, we have about 265 students.
