The Beacon School offers an inquiry-based college-preparatory program with technology and arts infused throughout the curriculum. In addition to taking the New York State English Language Arts Regents, students demonstrate their mastery of material each year by presenting independent projects to panels of teachers. All Beacon students perform one semester of community service.

Extra! Extra! Beacon's Student Newspaper is Back!

After a three year hiatus, Beacon's school paper returns this Friday with a new name and a new mission.

AS IT HAPPENS is entirely student-run, and will provide the entire Beacon community with all the latest in news and culture (plus, jokes, puzzles, and cartoons to get you through those mid-winter blues). Look for the As It Happens staff on Friday morning; they will be handing out FREE copies to anyone interested. Don't be late, though. Missing your chance to own one of these special limited edition copies... would just be bad news.
