Thankful to have Lt Col Metzger come by Bluewater. Lt Col Metzger is the Commander of the 87EWS at Eglin and Mrs. Klugh is their honorary Commander. It was great to share our school with him.


Our BES Seminole Spotlight this week is Coach Camila. The PTO would like to thank Coach Camila for her constant support. Coach Camila is always willing to lend a helping hand and is a terrific sport. We are incredibly grateful for your amazing support, encouragement, and help!


Join us for a weeklong fundraiser to support our local elementary school and a local business! For one week, purchase any drink and a portion of the sales will go to the Bluewater Elementary PTO. Lots of kid-friendly options!
