No School Monday, September 7th!
First Week of School in the Books
Good afternoon Beaumont Families
This is not how anyone expected to begin the school year, however, I commend the staff and families that have jumped in, determined to do what is best for kids under extreme circumstances. We all want our students to be back in the classroom and we cannot wait to get the green light to safely do just that. For now, we want to connect and learn as much as possible from a virtual setting. Our teachers are working hard to mirror a school day for your children. They will be able to participate in whole group instruction, small groups, intervention if needed and all of their encore classes. I am so excited for this! Look for information about your child's schedule this week from your teacher.
I begin many sentences with "as of right now." Although frustrating to have to say, we know that our world and the information that is available to us is changing every day. It is my job to make sure that we are all doing the best that we can for our students with the information that we have, every day. So what does that mean? It means that we may need to adjust, be flexible, and be patient. I always try to find the positive in a challenging situation- and wow, have we been challenged. However, we have had an opportunity to reflect and grow in ways that we never could have imagined in such a short period of time.
Although not the road we were expecting to take, join us on this amazing journey.
Stay safe, stay healthy.
Sincerely,
Leslie Guizzetti
Beaumont Elementary Principal

Waterford Virtual Academy Families:
We are happy to report that Edgenuity access for our WVA elementary students is complete. Please check your child’s student email account for a welcome letter with instructions and login information. When logging in, some of you may notice that not all Encore classes are loaded; they will be finalized by Tuesday when school resumes.
If you are still missing information about your teacher, I now have access to your classroom information and would be happy to assist you. Please call the main office line at 248-682-6822.
Virtual, remote, or face to face... we are all part of the Beaumont family. Stay connected!
Pick Up and Return Materials
Do you still have library books? Please return them so we can be ready for when we return to F2F instruction. We have a cart in the vestibule by our front door. If you need any appropriately leveled books for your student, please contact your teacher and we can help you.
New PTO Board
A virtual election for the 2020/2021 PTO board was held on Wednesday. Here is your new Beaumont PTO Board:
Treasurer-
We will post about upcoming meetings soon. Please let us know if you are interested in helping or have any questions or ideas. Is your student part of the WVA? You are still a part of Beaumont and can participate in any and all PTO activities.
