The Beacon Program at I.S.302 is amazing. I have two children that attend the Saturday programs as well as the Tuesday program. I am grateful that such a program exists in my neighborhood. The staff greats you by name upon entering the doors. The sports program, karate, and dance all have instructors who obviously love the kids and enjoy what their doing. 

I am enrolling my kids in the tutoring program another blessing for my family. My kids are struggling and paying for a tutor was just not possible, thanks to the Beacon program my kids can know get the help they need and deserve.

To the staff at 302 Beacon....THANK YOU for caring so much about my kids :)
