Forward Exam
April 18, 2024
On April 18th, 2024, all 10th grade students will complete the Forward Exam, which is a Social Studies-based multiple-choice test. This will occur during a modified schedule. All students will be present in the building, with 10th grade students reporting to their testing room during an extended Flex period. Students not in school on the scheduled testing days will be scheduled for a make-up test prior to the close of the testing window (April 26th).
Attached is an Informational Brochure for Families which gives more information about the assessment including its purpose, what scores will be provided, and how the scores will be used. The Forward Exam measures the knowledge and skills your student(s) should have acquired by the time they reach each grade level. Their performance on the assessment will not affect any of their current grades. Please encourage your student to take the test seriously and do the best they can. If you have any questions, please contact your student's building principal. Thank you,
Constance Barreau

JUNIORS: Direct Admit Wisconsin for Fall of 2025
Dear BMHS Parent/Guardians of Junior Students:
Beloit Memorial High School is participating in a new state program called Direct Admit Wisconsin. Direct Admit Wisconsin is designed to provide a place for all Wisconsin high school students to access a world-class public post-secondary education by proactively offering direct admission to Wisconsin universities. Students who are currently Juniors (Class of 2025) are the first class of students who can take advantage of this program.
10 UW schools are participating in Direct Admit Wisconsin for Fall 2025. They are UW-Green Bay, UW-Milwaukee, UW-Oshkosh, UW-Parkside, UW-Platteville, UW-River Falls, UW-Stevens Point, UW-Stout, UW-Superior and UW-Whitewater.
Direct Admit Wisconsin changes the process for admission to the 10 participating UW universities. The table below provides information that compares Direct Admit Wisconsin with the traditional university admission process:
For further information on Direct Admit Wisconsin please see the following FAQ at: https://www.wisconsin.edu/direct-admissions/
We will continue to share information in the coming weeks ahead. In the meantime, please be sure to review Direct Admit WI Student & Family Informational Slidedeck, and reach out to your student’s school counselor if you have any questions.
