Dear Beech Tree families,
We've had an incredibly eventful week at our school! On Wednesday, June 5th, we hosted Career Share Day, providing our students with valuable insights into various career paths. Thank you to all the families that shared with our students the various jobs that you do! We held our final PTA meeting for the school year on Thursday. On Friday, we were thrilled to witness the Justice High School Graduates as they paraded through the halls showcasing their determination. They were an inspiration for our current students. Finally, we ended the week with Field Day and our annual Staff vs 5th Grade Student's Soccer Game. This has been a week of cheering, laughter and pride.
Looking ahead to next week, we have more special events that you and your children won't want to miss. On Tuesday, June 11th, at 3:00 p.m., we have the Kindergarten Celebration. This is an occasion to commemorate the growth and achievements of our youngest learners. On Wednesday, June 12th, we will host the 5th Grade Promotion Ceremony at 11:00 a.m., celebrating the milestone achievements of our graduating 5th graders. It is important to note that Wednesday, June 12th, marks the last day of school for the 2024 school year. Students will be dismissed at 2:00 p.m.
This has been a wonderful school year. I hope you have an enjoyable summer with family and friends. I am excited to welcome everyone back for the 2024-2025 school year, which begins on August 19th.
Thank you for your partnership in education!
With great appreciation,
Principal Clarke
