Security Reminders When Visiting School
UCS Carpenters Bring Beck History to Our Hallway!
When the Beck Centennial Farm was taken down earlier this fall, we were able to secure some of the original wood from the barn structure. Our UCS carpenters were able to make our school history come alive and preserve the history! The 'barn' is made entirely of authentic planks taken from the site, and incorporates the state sign declaring the Beck family's farm a "Centennial' homestead. Photo above is Mr. & Mrs. Beck when their farm received the historical designation. Hence, our school name: Beck Centennial Elementary!
Illustrator Duane Abel Visits Beck!
Thanks to your BFV donations, we were able to bring Graphic Illustrator, Duane Abel, to visit Beck students this week for an assembly. Mr. Abel presented twice, and with each group he demonstrated for students how hard work, determination, and learning helps you achieve your goals! He also gave away some of his illustrations to students after the assembly. Students who purchased books will receive those next week.
