W.B. Beam Intermediate School met its academic growth expectations for the 2024-2025 year. This means we are moving in the right direction toward higher academic achievement!

W.B. Beam Intermediate School is a community school serving fourth and fifth grade students. We are committed to strong academics and offer a variety of enrichment opportunities like Falcon Radio, Student Council, Math Masters, Battle of the Books, and Robotics to help students grow and succeed.

Thanks to our partnership with Kintegra Health, we offer a telehealth clinic here at our school. Students, who are experiencing a minor illness or condition, can be seen by a medical provider virtually. This allows us to provide care for students without them having to leave school to go to the doctor.
