Superintendent Update

Dear Beacon Community,

I'm writing a brief update as we head into the long weekend.

Happy Veterans Day!  Thank you to all who have served our country with honor, dedication, and great sacrifice.  A reminder that schools are closed tomorrow in honor of the holiday.

Good Luck to Rachel Thorne and Henry Reinke who will both be running in the Cross Country State Championship this Saturday!  

Thank you to all who participated in yesterday’s blood drive!  We had over 75 participants and thanks to everyone who made it possible!  It was a very well-run event and we appreciate the community support!

Save the Date- On Wednesday, November 16 at 7:00, The Council on Addiction Prevention and Education of Dutchess County will do a Zoom presentation for parents in our school district about drug prevention and education.  We will send out the link for the meeting next week and we will try to record it as well.  Attendees can submit questions as well.

Have a great weekend!  Good luck to our Cross Country and Soccer athletes competing in state competitions this weekend!

Matt Landahl

Dear Beacon Community,

I just wanted to take a moment to provide a couple of reminders and to also thank you for your support of our professional learning day today.  Teachers at all levels were able to spend today developing curriculum and working in departments and grade levels on planning for the school year.  It is great to have this day to advance our work.
