About Us

At Beckford Charter for Enriched Studies, we provide our students a safe, engaging, and enriching learning environment, where hands-on experiences are embedded in a rigorous academic program—and where the whole child is supported in their intellectual, social, social-emotional, and physical development. Our goal is to provide our students with essential tools necessary to compete in the 21st century world, to imbue them with a lifelong love of learning, and create a partnership with our immediate and extended community that will facilitate a foundation for their future learning.
