Join Us!

Beacon Academy exists because of the good will of our donors, volunteers, and partners. We are proud of our students and mission, and are inspired to share it with you. We have built a robust Visitors’ Program that we hope accommodates your schedule. Please consider learning more about us through one of the opportunities listed here.

Visits

Open Houses
Join potential students and their families, community partners, high school admissions staff, donors, and board members for coffee, bagels, conversation, and a short formal presentation by students and faculty about Beacon Academy. Guests are invited to stay as long as they’d like after the open house to sit in on classes or to talk with Beacon staff and board members. We meet at Temple Israel.

Museum of Fine Arts Program
Since our inception in September 2005, we have partnered with the Education Department at the Museum of Fine Arts to provide a deep and meaningful introduction to art for the Beacon students. They will visit the Museum 19 times this year through the Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS) program. Join us for a formal presentation each time in the Riley Seminar Room from 1:30 to 2:15 pm and then travel through the Museum with our students as they explore master works of art and begin to absorb the power and majesty of each piece.

Museum visits are from 1:30 to 3:00 pm on Wednesdays.

Classroom Visits
Our teachers and students look forward to having company in the classroom. Please check our weekly calendar on the home page and contact Cindy Laba at claba@beaconacademy.org to set up a time to visit the school.
