The Beverly Public Schools provides homeless students and unaccompanied
youth all of the educational services for which they are eligible,
including education programs for students with disabilities, free
school meals, English language services, vocational and technical
education, gifted and talented services, special education, preschool
and Title I services. Homeless students are entitled to transportation
to their school of origin or the school where they are to be enrolled,
if required. All user fees are waived for students without a permanent
place to live. For more information you may confidentially contact
the Districts’ Homeless Liaison, Emily Rockwell at 921-6100,

The Beverly Public Schools is the recipient of the School and Community
Support Project Grant, a joint venture funded by the Departments
of Education and Social Services to provide supportive and preventative
services to elementary and middle school children living in foster,
adoptive, kinship and DSS involved settings. Support services include:
training for educators, parents and DSS personnel; behavioral consultation
including direct behavioral interventions to identified children
and families; and social skills groups. Please either contact the
Principal at your child’s school or call Emily Rockwell at
921-6100, ext. 747 if you are interested in hearing more about the
grant or if throughout the year we may be of any help to you or
your child.
