Beckwith Bulletin
BMS Community,
It was another busy week at Beckwith Middle School! On Monday, we celebrated our 6th graders with their Grade 6 Bash, which was a lot of fun. On Tuesday, we showed our patriotic spirit by wearing red, white, and blue to commemorate Veterans Day. Select band and chorus students also had the opportunity to perform at the Veterans Day Assembly at PRES. Wednesday was Veterans Day, and there was no school. On Thursday evening, we held the first of our three scheduled parent conferences. We wrapped up the week on Friday by wearing purple for Epilepsy Awareness Month to show our support and raise awareness. Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make it another great week at Beckwith!
Please remember that next Wednesday, November 18th is an early release day (11:35 a.m. dismissal) due to parent-teacher conferences.
