Dear Beagle Middle School Families,
Here are some updates that we wanted to share at this time:
Board of Education Presentation: On Monday evening, several of our students and staff members presented to the Board of Education about the great things happening this year at Beagle. Our students did an outstanding job! We wanted to thank our students that presented along with their family members for their continued support.
Cool School Polar Plunge: The Beagle Middle School Polar Plunge team raised over $1800 to support the Special Olympics; we thank our families that were able to contribute to this fundraiser. Special thanks to our Polar Plunge jumpers: Mrs. Welton, Mr. Arnett, Mr. Werner, Ms. Kylee, and Ms. Tiffany. Here is a picture of the jumpers: Polar Plunge.pdf
Washington, D.C. Update: If for some reason, your child is registered for the trip and can no longer attend, please contact Glenn Fountain at glennf@americanhistorytours.com as soon as possible so we can invite a student from the waitlist.
*Next payment due date: Friday, February 28th
Yearbooks: Yearbook orders are now being taken online. They are $15. Please use the link below to order yours today. Online ordering will end March 14th. https://shop.yearbookmarket.com/beaglemiddleschool. If you have any questions regarding yearbooks, please connect directly with Mrs. Lindsay Pelette, secretary, as she oversees the entire process and get any questions addressed in short order.
Lost and Found: The lost and found is exploding right now with coats, sweatshirts, and all kinds of treasures your child is missing. Please be sure and have your child check the lost and found. At the end of the trimester, all unclaimed items will be donated to Ken’s Closet.
PTO Meeting: We thank our families that attended the previous PTO meeting; your support is appreciated. We wanted to take this opportunity to remind our families that attendance at PTO meetings does not require an every month commitment; family support and input is appreciated whether it’s attending one or several PTO meetings. Our next Hayes/Beagle PTO meeting will be on Tuesday, March 11 at 6:30 pm here in the Beagle Media center. Families may also attend this meeting virtually as there is currently a hybrid offering.
