A Memphis native, Mrs. Thompson is winding up her 6th year at BES.  She has two adorable children, Sebastian and Dumpling.  By the way, they're cats!  She loves pizza and anything cheesy with water to wash it all down.  Her fave color is red.  Isn't that the color of Snoopy's doghouse?!  Why did she choose to be a teacher here?  "BES has a wonderful reputation for a hardworking, caring faculty.  I wanted to be a part of that."  And her fondest memory so far is the Carnival during her first year.  "It was a wonderful experience to watch the parents, teachers and kids having fun on such a beautiful day."

Another Memphis native, Mrs. Lester is in her 2nd year at BES.  She enjoys sharing crab legs with her daughter and sipping on anything strawberry flavored.  The color yellow always brightens her day.  She chose BES because it's a good school and closer to home.  Her fave memory shows how awesome our Panther students are:  "When students wrote "Get Well" cards for my mom, when she went into the hospital."
