BEEHIVE PHILOSOPHY
- At BEEHIVE we are all about telling it like it is.
- We are serious about learning and living our religion.
- We are serious about honoring and obeying Our Heavenly Father and His Son, Jesus Christ.
- We are serious about helping our students build Christ-like character.
- We believe that the most important academic skill is knowing how to read and understand what is read.
- We believe that freedom has a price and that that price is vigilance - which means
- knowing and understanding history and government,
especially the U.S. Constitution, and
- actively and continually participating in the political process.
- We believe that success in life is achieved by work and expect our students to work at their studies in order to achieve academic success.
- We understand that KNOWING HOW TO LEARN is important and therefore teach our students the best learning techniques.
- We know that students do not care what you can teach them until they know how much you care about them.
- We SHOW we care through individual help and curriculum and accepting the student where he is.
- We engineer SUCCESS EXPERIENCES because nothing breeds success like success, thereby building an "I CAN" attitude.
- We recognize the importance of parents to a student's academic success and frequently hold as needed impromptu Parent Conferences.
- We believe in personal accountability; that the student will receive the grade he has legitimately earned.
- And finally, we know that true learning can only take place in a safe and stress-free environment, and therefore provide such.
- The result is an excellent education.

- Yearbook: Students create their own pages and contribute literary and art works to the yearbook.
