Hello!
It is an honor to introduce myself as the new principal of Hannah Beardsley Middle School and to join this extraordinary school community. I hope that this note finds you enjoying your last rejuvenating days of summer and that you and your children are looking forward to beginning a wonderful school year together next week. I can assure you that I share in this school community’s commitment to caring for your children each and every day while providing them a world-class learning environment.
I look forward to partnering with you this year!

Students with last names M - Z attend with their families on Thursday, August 10th, 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
If you cannot attend your night, you may attend the other one.
Activity Buses
Activity buses run Monday, Tuesday and Thursday starting Monday, August 21st. The intent in providing these Activity Buses is to enable more of our students to participate in school activities, clubs, sports or remedial help as appropriate. On these days, our Library Media Center will also be open in order to enable students to complete homework, engage in research or to provide a quiet place to study under teacher supervision until 4:10 pm, buses leave the parking lot at 4:15 pm. The routes will be posted on our website prior to August 28th for your to go over with your student. Routes are abbreviated and stop within a neighborhood.
We encourage you, as parents, to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity from which ultimately your children benefit.
Be Seen and Heard© Parent Information Meeting
