BHS Graduation

Due to forecasted thunderstorms for this morning, the Beacon High School graduation is indoors at the Beacon High School Gym at 9:00 A.M. today. A live stream video of the graduation will be shown in the high school theater for people without tickets. We ask that people with tickets enter at the gymnasium entrance and people without tickets enter through the BHS main entrance. After the ceremony, the entire high school will be open for different locations for family photos. I apologize about this inconvenience for folks.

Michael Kealy was appointed to be the new Director of Technology. Michael is currently the Director of Technology for the Coxsackie-Athens Central School District. Prior to that position, he was a social studies teacher and an academic dean.

The search process for all three positions solicited community and staff input and involved different stakeholders in the interview process.

We are very excited about all three new administrators coming to our district.
