Most people do not know about the unique partnership that happens on every bus route that serves our special education and preschool students. Bus drivers are partnered with transportation aides that ensure that our most precious cargo is safely buckled up and cared for throughout the ride.

BVSD’s Facilities staff are organized into teams by area of expertise/responsibility: Buildings (managing building maintenance), HVAC (responsible for clean air and comfortable temperatures), Trades (plumbing, electrical, and life safety systems), Grounds (everything outside - landscaping, playgrounds, snow and ice removal, tracks, fields, irrigation, etc.), environmental (maintaining indoor environmental quality), and custodial (keeping it all clean and sanitized).

The BVSD School Age Care (SAC) staff has always provided a safe gathering place before and after school where children can learn, grow and laugh before and after the school bell. Over the last two years, the Coal Creek Elementary SAC site has become a haven of relative normalcy amidst the pandemic and the Marshall wildfire for students and parents alike.
