Future Planning for Beacon Tree
College & Career Pathways
The district will host its 18th annual College & Career Pathways event from 6:00-8:00 p.m. on Thursday, March 14, 2024, at Henry Ford II High School. This event is aimed at current 10th-12th grade students. Up to 63 post-secondary institutions and trade schools will be in attendance to offer information to assist students with their post-secondary plans. This year, students will need to register for this event prior to attending. Most of the post-secondary institutions and/or trade schools will collect student information via a scan tool. Students can register for a barcode at StriveFair.com. Students will receive their barcode upon submitting their registration and will be sent it again as a reminder 2 hours before the fair start time.

Mother / Son Event
Tickets are now on sale for our Mother Son event on Wednesday, April 17! All Beacon Tree boys Pre-K through 6th grade are invited to attend along with a special lady of their choice. Please see flyer for details and purchase your tickets here: beacontreevolunteers.com. Note: Both the student and the grownup each need to purchase a ticket to attend.
School Supplies for 2024-2025 School Year
We partner with 1st Day School Supplies to have kits prepared with all the required grade level supplies your student needs for the school year. All you have to do is order and they’ll do the rest. They are delivered directly to the school in August and will be distributed to your student’s classroom waiting for them!
Order here: https://1stdayschoolsupplies.com/kits.php?sid=50991
We will also send flyers home after we receive them and of course send out additional reminders before ordering closes in July.
NOTE: If you purchased a kit last year, the company sent out a mass email letting you know kits are available for purchase for the 2024-2025 school year. The email isn’t spam, so you’re free to use the link there or the link here to order again. 😊
We are excited to partner with Jimmy John’s Field for a family night out at the ballpark. More details on ticket sales coming soon!
