On Monday afternoon, an e-mail circulated that described a “Cat in the Hat” that specified Midland, Gladwin, Beaverton, and Clare Schools. These posts have apparently been circulating since Friday throughout Michigan. The posts do not contain specified threats to students or property, however, out of a abundance of caution, our SRO Chief of Police have been notified and are on heightened aert.
Thank you and have a great afternoon!

Traffic Pattern Update for School Families


Dear Beaverton Schools Community,
As we quickly approach the start of the new school year, an obstacle we must overcome is the ongoing road construction on M-18 (Ross St.) and Tonkin Street. Due to this construction, our Tonkin Street entrance, which is our main bus entrance, will remain closed for several months. This closure forces us to reroute buses, and adjust pick up and drop off procedures for students. We have created a tentative plan and map in order to educate our stakeholders about these new, temporary procedures. Our plan is to release this information to the public next week, after review of these procedures by county officials on Tuesday.
Thank you!
Michael S. Hugan

Dear Staff, Board, and Community,
In response to the water main break, which caused three additional cancellation days last week, the Michigan Department of Education has forgiven us two of three days. It has also been confirmed that since we scheduled 181 days of instruction this year, we are not, at this time, required to make up the third day. If, in the event of an additional cancellation between now and the last day of school, we still can request an additional waiver of up to one school day.
