Outside of the classroom, students can participate in enriching activities and clubs such as chess, drumline, robotics, academic competitions and athletics including cheer, soccer, flag football and basketball. Bow Elementary-Middle School’s mission is to continue to create a safe, healthy and welcoming learning environment conducive to high-quality learning. With kindness and intentionality and by encouraging students to take academic risks, every Bow Elementary-Middle School Eagle can soar to excellence.
