Dear Beck Community,

End of 1st Marking Period

The end of the first marking period is rapidly approaching on November 11, 2024! Students are encouraged to talk with their teachers about any missing work or reassessment. Students can schedule in our Flex system to see a specific teacher during I&E when they are offering intervention or extra help.

Report Cards will be published in the Genesis Parent/Guardian Portal on November 19, 2024.

Conferences

Parent/Teacher conferences will be held December 9-12, 2024. We will send out specific information on scheduling conferences in the next week. Conferences will be open to parents/guardians to schedule on November 18, 2024 in Genesis.

All the Best,
