Our Mission: Creating a community of learners by transforming education to meet all needs.

Vision Statement: Excellence Every Day In Every Way

My name is Brandon Wagler, and I am fortunate to serve as the Principal at Bainbridge Elementary. I am currently beginning my 22nd year in the education, and my third year as Bainbridge Elementary's Principal. We are looking forward to a fantastic 2024-2025 school year at Bainbridge Elementary.

At Bainbridge Elementary we believe in “Excellence Every Day in Every Way.” Our mission is to create a community of learners by transforming education to meet all needs.

Bainbridge Elementary is part of the North Putnam Community School Corporation. We serve approximately 470 Pre-School to 5th grade students. The Bainbridge Staff is filled with dedicated teachers who are serious about reaching the educational needs of all their students. Students are immersed in a warm, welcoming, and safe school community where high expectations are set.

Bainbridge has a focus on academic achievement that provides students with a variety of opportunities to engage in their learning. Our students are taught to collaborate at all levels and are expected to apply their thinking in cooperation with their fellow students throughout their years at Bainbridge. Students experience service learning opportunities throughout the school year. Bainbridge is proud to have a Student Council who is recognized as an Honor Council with the Indiana Association of Student Councils.

Our students are supported by a great community who helps them immerse themselves in all subject areas and extra-curricular programs. Bainbridge Elementary is the place for you if you want your child to experience a staff that is focused on the individual needs of each child, displays a positive environment, and a safe campus. I see students at Bainbridge happy, enthusiastic, and excited about the learning they are experiencing.

The staff at Bainbridge Elementary is very proud of their school and continues to work together to make it the best place for children. If you have questions or concern, please email me at bwagler@nputnam.k12.in.us Thank you very much and I hope you have a wonderful day!
