We're BACK!

Thank you to all of our students, our teachers, our staff, and our parents! We had a wonderful opening of the 2021-22 School Year. Our kids have been extremely positive and our teachers feel energized. We're excited to have everyone back on campus as we gradually return to some normalcy.

New Buildings!

Over the course of the next few months, details will be emerging about new facilities at Beckman High School. We can confirm that, YES, there will be a few new additions on campus in the next two years. We can also confirm that we have been working with architects and designers to map out our new CTE Building and Auxillary Gym with weight room! Below is the current draft layout. We're extremely excited to get the project moving and are eager for our kids to benefit from the new facilities.
