The 4th Annual Sun Prairie B.E.A.M. Awards ceremony will be an in-person event at Bank of Sun Prairie at Ashley Field on Sunday, April 24, at 2 p.m.

The B.E.A.M. Awards “shine a beaming light” on the positive examples of Black excellence and achievement in our community. Over 700 awards will be given to our Black scholars and Black adults, including staff, leaders and parents/guardians. Names were submitted for awards based on the following five categories.

B.E.A.M. stands for “Black Excellence Achievement Makers” and is an event to challenge the negative narrative we often hear associated with our Black students and/or adult advocates.
