We need your partnership as we work to ensure that every Beechfield Scholar is present, on time, and ready to learn each day. When students arrive late or miss school, they miss important instruction, classroom routines, intervention, small-group learning, and opportunities to practice essential skills. This can impact academic performance, engagement, and behavior throughout the school day.
Learning also continues at home! Please spend time reinforcing reading, letter and sound recognition, math skills, and writing. Even a few focused minutes each evening can help strengthen what students are learning at school.
We were SO CLOSE to our 90% attendance goal yesterday at 89.49%! Let’s finish the week STRONG and get EVERY CLASS to 90% or above TODAY!
Every Student Matters…Every Day Counts!

You did it again. We met our Daily Goal of 90% or above overall attendance. Kudos K, 3rd, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th Grade Families. We will be having a special celebration for parents that have done an amazing job getting their students to school daily and on time. Be sure to get your invite.

Today, Q1 Progress Reports are available in Infinite Campus. We encourage every family to log in, review your child’s current academic progress, and talk with your scholar about areas of strength and areas where additional growth is needed.
As you review progress reports, we also want to emphasize one of the most important ways families can support academic success: consistent, on-time attendance.
Yesterday, Beechfield reached 91.36% overall attendance and met our schoolwide goal! We are proud of this accomplishment, but we need this level of attendance every day.
Our scholars can only receive the daily instruction, intervention, small-group support, practice, feedback, and academic support they need when they are in school. Students who are working toward grade-level expectations especially need every available instructional day. Missing school or arriving late means missing valuable learning time that is difficult to replace.
Please help us by making school attendance a priority. Students should arrive each day by 7:45 a.m. so they are ready to begin their school day on time.
Progress reports tell us where our scholars are. Consistent attendance helps us move them forward. Let’s continue working together to get every Beechfield Scholar on grade level and beyond!

Thankfully, the student is doing well and is now in the care of their family after receiving medical attention.
Some students witnessed the medical emergency and emergency response. Our staff is available to support and reassure any students who may have questions or concerns about what they observed.
Out of respect for the student and family’s privacy, we will not share additional details regarding the medical emergency.
We are thankful our scholar is okay and grateful for the quick response of our staff and emergency medical personnel.

Join us Tuesday, September 15th from 1:30–3:00 PM in the Orioles Cafeteria for fresh food and healthy options for your family.
Everyone is welcome! Please remember to bring your own bags. We are proud to continue supporting our families and community. Stronger families help build brighter futures!
Every Student Matters and Every Day Counts!
