BMS Community,


It was another great week at Beckwith! Our soccer teams wrapped up their regular season at Seekonk. It was a great season for both teams, and now we turn our attention to basketball! Our first basketball games are scheduled for November 30th at Dighton. Please check the Beckwith Beacon for the full schedule.


Tuesday, there was no school as staff took part in a Professional Development Day. The DReams Seminars were once again a great opportunity for staff to learn, collaborate, and continue growing professionally.


On Wednesday, we held our annual Unified Bocce Staff vs. Students game. It was a fun time for everyone involved! A big thank you to all of the staff members who volunteered and helped make it such a great event. This also wraps up another fantastic Unified Bocce season. Up next... Unified Basketball!


📸 Photos and highlights from Beckwith Middle School can be found on the BMS Facebook Page.
