BMS Community,


This was a busy week at Beckwith! Cross Country had their final meet, and soccer and Unified Bocce played their final home games. We are now transitioning into basketball season, so please see below for information about sign ups, which need to be completed ASAP.


Thursday was Green and Gold Spirit Day, followed by Green and Gold Night at our high school, where students and families had the opportunity to tour the building and learn more about everything DRRHS has to offer.


We wrapped up the week with Halloween Spirit Day! There were lots of great costumes, and we had a spooktacular day at Beckwith! 🎃


Don't forget to turn your clocks back one hour this weekend as we return to standard time. Also, there is no school on Tuesday, November 3rd due to a Professional Development Day for staff.


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