Safety Reminder
When coming up to the building, please remember that we ask all visitors to:
- Tell us your name
- Tell us your child's name
- Tell us the reason for your visit
As a reminder, please do not let in other people coming in behind you. This can feel rude, but it's important for us to screen adults before entering the building.
Also please remind students, if they are leaving early, that they must wait for a parent/guardian/responsible party to check them out before they leave the building. Thank you!

On February 13, representatives from Millard North and on February 12, representatives from Millard South will be at Beadle to meet with students during GSP and complete the Course Request in StudentVUE.
IMPORTANT: If Millard North or Millard South is NOT your assigned home school, you will need to complete an application for a Within-District Transfer by February 15.
Application for Early College and AFJROTC is a separate process. Admission to these programs still requires a Within-District Transfer to Millard South if this is not your home school.
Students NOT Attending a Millard School in 9th Grade
Students who will not be attending a Millard school next year will join the Millard West group for these activities but do not have to complete a Course Request. If you’re still unsure about plans for next year, it’s best to complete the Registration to your assigned high school and adjustments can be made later.International Baccalaureate Information Night
If your student is planning to attend Millard North High School, consider the IB programs! MNHS is one of only three Nebraska high schools to offer the Diploma Program, and we also offer the Middle Years Program for 9th and 10th graders. The International Baccalaureate® aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect.

Rotary Honor Roll
Each year, the staff at Beadle Middle School works with the Omaha Rotary Club to recognize and honor 8th grade students who embody the core qualities recognized by the Rotary Honor Roll. This year, we will recognize 16 students. We have created an application process that mirrors many of the applications students will complete during their high school years – applications for jobs, college admission, and scholarships. This is a great opportunity to start practicing those skills.
Students can click on the slide show below for more information.
Your completed application is due to Mrs. Fleming in the counseling office NO LATER than 3:30 PM on Wednesday, January 15. Late or incomplete applications will not be considered for selection.
