Dear Eighth Grade Parent/Guardian,

       This is an important decision-making year for you and your eighth-grade student.  This school year, information will be presented regarding the courses and programs available at Henry P. Becton Regional (https://www.bectonhs.org/)   Every eighth-grade student will have an individual conference with their guidance counselor where long and short-term goals will be discussed, and a tentative schedule of courses for their freshman year at Henry P. Becton Regional High School will be selected.

If you would like to explore high school options other than Becton Regional High School, please use the information below to guide students and parents to open houses and the application process. I look forward to working with you and your child in planning a challenging and rewarding high school experience.
