Katherine Taylor scores a perfect 36 on the ACT and finds out via Google Meets!
Finding out that you attained a perfect score on the ACT couldn't have come in a more unique way as it did this year for Katherine Taylor, junior at Beechwood High School. Upon receiving the scores, Beechwood principal Justin Kaiser, assistant principal Sarah Schobel, and teacher Julie Rash delivered the news the only way they could - via Google Meet . The reaction was priceless and received social media attention and was featured on Fox 19 News. Congratulations to Katherine. Interestingly enough, this was not the first perfect score in the Taylor family. Katherine’s brother, John, achieved a perfect score a few years ago while attending Beechwood.

Beechwood Art Department collaborates with Cancun Mexican Restaurant to deliver "The Art Challenge" to all Beechwood students
Monica Namyar and Sharon Mitchell worked together to challenge all students to design and color a Beechwood piece of artwork, post it on their front door or window, and take a selfie with it to post on Twitter. The postings were seen by Cancun Mexican restaurant on Buttermilk who then offered a $50 gift card to the winning submission! A great representation of our community rallying behind the schools to help engage our students.
