        B.E.S.T .Academy opened its doors for the first time in the fall of 2004. The school was kindergarten through sixth grade. There were only 85 students in the building. The second and third floor only had two classes each. The other rooms were coat rooms. Today B.E.S.T. Academy  has over 500 students and goes from Pre-K to eighth grade.

       The first graduating class of B.E.S.T. Academy crossed the stage in spring of 2007. That class is in their first year of college.

       The school’s mascot is a bulldog. Only a few people know how bulldog became the logo for the school.  A student created a picture of a bulldog and taped it to the wall in the multi-purpose room.
