Welcome Back!
Good Morning Beaumont Staff!
Although a very different and challenging start to the year, I am very grateful and excited to be able to work with all of you again. I know questions will come up and I will do my best to answer them and help you through any challenging situation. Together, I know that our Beaumont family can do this! We may not have our students F2F quite yet, but I know that you will all do the very best for each and every one of them. I am thankful to be part of this team.
I will be available for staff Q and A on Monday at 9:00 AM. Location TBD, but most likely in the new gym.
In this year of opportUNITY, let us remember that,
