BES- Join us at the Scholastic Book Fair this Wed, 4/17, through Friday, 4/19, and stock up on some new books!! The fair runs from 8am- 5pm in the library!

Power has been restored at Barnstead Elementary School. School is in session. We hope everyone has a great Friday.

Eversource has estimated that power should be restored at BES by 8:30 am. School will remain in session as long as that estimate is not extended. The school has emergency lighting and water pressure that should last for at least the next hour. We will keep parents $ guardians informed.

Power is out at Barnstead Elementary School this morning (Friday, April 12). BES parents and guardians have received email and phone notifications. School staff will welcome students who are already in transit to the school as we assess the situation and talk with Eversource. More information will come as soon as it is available.

Power has gone out around Maple Street in Center Barnstead, including at Barnstead Elementary School. Eversource has been notified and school staff are assessing the situation. For now, we plan to unload buses when they arrive rather than send children back to homes where parents & guardians may have left to go to work. However, the school has limited ability to safely operate without power, and an early closure may be necessary. We will keep parents & guardians informed as we assess and receive more information. Families should prepare for the possibility that we are forced to close and send students home.

Due to widespread power outages and impassable roads, Alton Central School, Barnstead Elementary School, and Prospect Mountain High School will be closed on Friday, April 5. There will be no school and no remote learning schedule. Stay warm and safe.

Alton Central School, Barnstead Elementary School, and Prospect Mountain High School will have a two-hour delay tomorrow morning, Friday, April 5. If a cancellation becomes necessary, that announcement will be made in the morning. Until then, all students and staff should plan on a two-hour delay.

Thursday, April 4th. Widespread power and internet outages today may present a challenge to log on and complete classwork. We will continue with the remote day, ask students and teachers to do what they can, and understand that some may not be able to access Google Classroom. Absences will be excused. Stay safe and warm.

Good Afternoon,
Based on the forecast of snow accumulations of up to 18", tomorrow, April 4th, will be a Blizzard Bag day for students in grades K-3 and a Remote Learning day for students in grades 4-12. Principals will send a follow-up email with Blizzard Bag/Remote Learning expectations.
