Some of the courses offered are Accounting, Child Care, Office Procedures, Horticulture, Welding, and many others. Our school offers two sessions of Beck. The first session leaves school at 8:00 and returns at about 11:15. Second session students leave at 9:50 and return at 1:15. The students enrolled at Beck really like the program and feel that it is a break from regular school while still learning something.
