Overview

     The Berry College Laboratory School, which was later renamed Elementary School, was established in 1977 by the Berry College Department of Education as a demonstration school for the southeast.
     BCES provides a practicum setting for college students who are involved in observations and guided teaching experiences. College students also participate in the life of the school through the Student Work Opportunity Program as classroom aides. Through this relationship, BCES students receive many opportunities to attend a variety of college and local cultural events.
     Berry College received high marks in the 1996 U.S. News and World Report's annual ranking of colleges and universities. Berry College topped a new category as the BEST regional college in the South based on its commitment to teaching. Berry ranked second best in the regional liberal arts colleges in the South.
