  Information for Beck Academy Parents

Dear Parents and Students,

The administration and faculty welcomes our new students, parents, staff, and our returning Blue Knights, to a new school year.  We are excited about the opportunity we have to provide our students with a learning environment that allows them to become independent thinkers with a global perspective.

As I begin my 40^th year as an educator, I have learned over the years that to have a successful school, the home and the school must work together if we are going to make a difference in the lives of our students.

I believe that first period starts at home and that a positive attitude makes the difference between success and failure. Therefore we as a school will make every effort to keep the parents informed of school and student progress.

Please be aware of the communication lines available from the administration, teachers and the PTSA:

• If you have email, be sure to sign up to receive our e-news letter by visiting the Beck Academy webpage at www.greenville.k12.sc.us/beck/ .  Look under Blue Knight News and click the Submit email link. Just enter your email address and you will begin receiving Beck’s E-News every other week. The e-news is sent out biweekly highlighting school events and classroom activities.

·         An interim progress report is sent home every two weeks starting in September.

·          Each teacher has an individual website. Web addresses are listed on the school’s website.

·         Beck will continue to implement the School Wide Optimal Organization Handbook (SWOOSH). Daily notes and assignments from teachers will be posted daily.

·         The PTSA will have 6 newsletters mailed out throughout the year.

We are excited about the possibilities of the new school year; please feel free to contact us if you have any questions as we work together to make a difference in the lives of our students.
