Our experience was poor with BES. My child was physically bullied by a student in the same classroom and nothing was done by teacher / administration. After speaking with the assistant principal the only option given to us was to keep our child in the same class or withdraw. Administration does NOT care about their students. My child is on a 504plan and her main teacher barely kept with her accommodations causing her more stress. Overall we would not recommend BES to anyone.

This school has a great team who really care about their students. I’ve had my children in the advanced classes here from kindergarten, on up to 5th grade. Every teacher they’ve had are fully invested in the success of their students and have a great curriculum. The Principal, Mr Sanfilipo, is a visible leader and can be seen on the campus everyday engaging with the students. I highly recommend Bunnell elementary school.

I have never been more infuriated with a school's staff, in my life. My child has mild Autism and requires therapy... Well, for some reason she has yet to receive therapy of any kind (two months later). What's a Mom to do when you can't get into the school, to speak to anyone, unless you have an appointment, but nobody will call/email you back to make an appointment.. Nobody will speak to you, except the teacher, but she can't do anything about it.. It took me, her therapists, and teachers three years of hard work, to get my child on track and ready for school ON TIME.. But with the lack of help from this school's staff she's, already, behind.. My child's education is NOT a joking matter and I am sick to death with being treated disrespectfully every time I have an interaction with a staff member at this school. I have never felt defeated as a Mother, until my child started kindergarten, this year.. Never thought I would have to relocate, into another county, in order to feel comfortable with her going to school. SHAME ON YOU STAFF MEMBERS! I only gave the one star because of the teacher my Daughter has. She is a wonderful woman, and great teacher.

I have 4 children and they all go to bunnell. I believe it is a great school. The communication is great, and I'm glad my kids are so lucky to go there. I've never not liked a teacher that my kids have had. One teacher that really stood out to me was mrs. Lightsey. She is so wonderful.
