8th Grade Recognition Event
The 8th Grade Honors Recognition will be held Thursday, May 26 at 9:00 AM. The purpose of Beveridge Recognition Day is to recognize your 8th grade student for his or her accomplishments at Beveridge Magnet Middle School as they transition to High School. Please join us for a morning of honoring what we value so highly – the achievements of our students. The Recognition Ceremony will be held in the Beveridge gymnasium and last approximately one hour.
The ceremony will begin promptly at 9:00 AM. Please plan to arrive 15 minutes early to ensure you are seated prior to the event starting. As part of our recognition ceremony, all students will be recognized. Each will receive a folder with a list of accomplishments, activities and awards received during the school year. We are including a few special awards that will be announced at the ceremony.
While we know you are very excited about this event, please keep all balloons, flowers and other large gifts at home. These may block the view from others watching the ceremony. In addition, the program is in the morning and students will not be permitted to carry those items throughout the school day. These are wonderful celebratory items, but please present them to your 8th grade student at home.
Students are asked to wear appropriate clothes for this event, with the knowledge that the 8th grade dance will also be that afternoon. We want to make this a memorable event for you and your student. If you have questions regarding our Recognition Ceremony, please contact me at 531-299-2280. We look forward to celebrating the accomplishments of your child.

The boys and girls finished their soccer seasons in dramatic fashion. Coach Becker’s boys played their way into the city championship game on Friday May 6th. Our undefeated boys squared off against an undefeated Marrs squad. The game was played at South High’s Collin Field. The boys played a great game but were defeated 2-0. Beveridge finished with a 7-1 record and are city runners-up! Great job guys!
Coach Otero’s girls also finished with a 7-1 record. Our girls took care of Nathan Hale at home on Friday beating the Patriots 5-1. Our girls finished 5th overall in the city. Great season!
Our track team is currently still practicing. City finals for 7th and 8th grade will be this Friday at Bryan High School. This is an all-day event as all 12 OPS middle schools will be competing. Track athletes will be leaving our building as early as 9 a.m. Friday morning. Stay tuned for specific details regarding track city finals.
