About Us

 About Briarlake Elementary School

BES is a sweet little STEM-focused school best defined by its sustainable partnerships between its parent community, teachers, and administration. It is a small school packing a big punch with various extracurricular programs, clubs, and extended experiences for our students! This academic experience could not happen without the outstanding support of our teacher, parent, and community partnerships. Briarlake is part of a vital, diverse community that takes pride in the school and provides a strong support base. 
The neighborhood comprises a mix of single-family homes, apartments, condominiums, and new in-fill housing. One of Briarlake's most vital assets is its student and staff diversity. Briarlake offers a Deaf/Hard-of-Hearing program for mainstreaming deaf students in all aspects of instructional and curricular activities and other varying student services. Our students matriculate to Henderson Middle and Lakeside High School, where they continue their academic careers.
