A Note from the Principal
Thank you for being partners with us in your learners education! We value you and this partnership we continue to develop with you! We so enjoy having each of them here everyday and value their strengths and talents.
Just a few reminders as you are talking with your learner(s):
*They are partners in this too! They have to take an active role in their classrooms by asking questions, answering questions, working hard and studying to be prepared in each class.
*We have homework club weekly (Monday, Tuesday & Thursday) in which they can get assistance from staff with their work. They should be checking their grades weekly where they can check grades, make up poor assessments & check practice completion.
*Learners are responsible for their behaviors! We are looking for Learners using the Beardsley Way: Safe, Responsible & Respectful in all areas of the building.
As always, my door is open and our team welcomes your input. Please feel free to contact me via email at the address below or call to make an appointment to speak with me to discuss any ideas you feel will make this the best year yet!
