Dear Mountaineer Nation,

Welcome to Berlin Brothersvalley Elementary School — where our learners are at the heart of everything we do.

It is truly a privilege to serve as principal of such a caring, dedicated, and community-minded school. At BBES, we take great pride in providing a safe, nurturing, and engaging learning environment where every child is supported academically, socially, and emotionally. From our youngest learners in kindergarten to our confident and capable fourth graders, our staff works tirelessly to meet learners where they are and help them grow into the best versions of themselves.

We believe that a strong foundation in the early years sets the stage for a lifetime of learning. That’s why we focus not only on academic excellence, but also on character development, creativity, and curiosity. Whether through hands-on classroom experiences, enrichment opportunities, or special events that bring our community together, we are committed to making learning meaningful and joyful for all learners.

At Berlin Brothersvalley, we also recognize that education is a team effort. Our partnership with families is essential, and we value the open communication, support, and collaboration that makes our school community so special.

Please take some time to explore our website to learn more about what’s happening at BBES. If you ever have questions, ideas, or concerns, my door is always open. Together, we can ensure that our learners are not only successful learners, but also kind and confident individuals ready to take on the world.

Mountaineer Nation…Be Great Today.

Eric J. Lauer
