Each year, we gather student, staff, and family feedback through the Successful Schools Survey. Please support us by completing the survey- it is extremely helpful to know what is working and what needs further attention from as many families as possible.
Families select their school site from the drop-down list at the following URL. Families with more than one student can respond for their eldest student or take the survey more than once. No access codes needed!

Site Council Membership 24/25
Site Council is a volunteer group at Beach Elementary that supports the principal with the overall academic direction of the school, focusing on school improvement initiatives. Each year, a small group of parents, community members and staff representatives are selected to serve on the Site Council for a two-year cycle. Our current parent/community members are coming to the end of their two year cycle as participants and we are looking for members for the start of the 24/25 school year.
If you are interested in being a part of our Site Council, please contact Kelli or your child's current classroom teacher.

Moving or Change in Enrollment Next Year?
If you have a planned move or know you will be attending a different school next year we ask that you notify the office as soon as possible. We want to make sure you are supported with documents and procedures before the office staff is out in June. This can make your transition a much smoother process and helps us to plan effectively for next year.
