Dear Beagle Middle School Families,
Here are some updates that we wanted to share with you at this time:
STEAM Showcase: Join us for Beagle’s annual STEAM Showcase on Thursday, May 16th from 6-7:30pm. This open house style event is open to all students and families in the district and community members. Each year we host this event and reveal the TOP SECRET THEME as we open our doors at 6:00pm. Admission is free but families may want to bring money for Shove It Pizza, concessions and treats from A&W. Can you guess the theme? Some projects include zombie hands, self-portraits, fantasy plants, machines and maps. Parents interested in helping, please use the following link to sign up: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0F4DACAD2FA0FBC43-48995770-steam#/
