Dear Beagle Middle School Parents,
We hope that you and your family were able to enjoy time together over break. It’s hard to imagine that we are now moving into the second week of the second trimester! Our students did an amazing job this past week in showing high levels of Comet PRIDE returning from break.
Here are some updates that we wanted to pass along:
