Bakerfield Elementary School

What Bakerfield Elementary School does

Bakersfield Elementary Middle School (BEMS) is a public Pre-K through 8th grade school located at 82 Academy Lane, Bakersfield, Vermont, operating under the Franklin Northeast Supervisory Union (FNESU). It is a government state entity, not a commercial enterprise: it offers free public education to resident children from Pre-K through grade 8, with no tuition or fees, and is funded through state and local public education allocations channeled via FNESU. The school delivers a standard K-8 academic program with subject-specialized middle school teachers in math, science, language arts, and physical education, supplemented by special education services (special educators, speech and language pathology, literacy and math intervention), a Pre-K program, athletics, art and music, an after-school LEAPS enrichment program, and student health services led by a school nurse. Staffing covers instructional, paraprofessional, family engagement, psychology, food service, custodial, and IT roles, with Principal Julie Kittell and Vice-Principal Lorelei Westbrook leading operations.

The school's underlying technology stack is sourced from third-party education vendors rather than built in-house. The website and parent-facing mobile apps (iOS and Android) are powered by Apptegy, while PowerSchool serves as the student information system for grades, attendance, and parent portal access. IT support is delivered through the 1to1plus platform at the FNESU level, and local student transportation is contracted to Grand Avenue Enterprises. There is no proprietary technology development, no AI capability, and no commercial product surface. The business model is non-commercial: revenue arrives as government allocation, the go-to-market is residency-based enrollment, and customer segments are local students and their parents or guardians, with no discretionary spend to capture and no churn risk in the conventional sense.
