Description: In the early 1920's, Benjamin Banneker School was originally a two-story, seven room industrial arts school. Then, in 1929, the school became an elementary school. A few years later, in 1934, Banneker School opened its doors as a high school for the African American community. It remained a high school until 1947 when Benjamin Banneker School became an elementary, junior and senior high school. In 1966, the junior and senior classes were distributed to Margaret Brent and Leonardtown Middle Schools and Chopticon High School. In 1974, the current media center and office were added. The building then housed about 300 students.
In the 2000-2001 school year, the First Grades moved into trailers behind the Early Childhood Center building. Grades 2-5 moved into trailers behind the Benjamin Banneker School in May, 2001 in preparation for the renovation scheduled to begin in June, 2001. In 2002, the newly renovated building opened. Currently, BBES services about 700 children: infants through 5th grade.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
