Hello Bethany Family,

I must begin by thanking the outstanding Diamond Jubilee committee, specifically Jeff and Sara Mills. Their successful and dedicated planning produced a monumental evening celebrating Bethany School and 75 years of Christian education in the community. Again, it was amazing, my heart is still full.

Parents if you would like to make a donation towards the continued success of Bethany School, please use this link to make your donation, thank you for your continued support.

Parents, have you seen the new water bottle fillers on campus? There is one on the preschool campus, K-5 and middle school campuses. They look amazing and are compliments of your generous support of the Color Run. Thanks!

As we conclude the year, events are taking place both on and off campus. From May 9th–11th, Mrs. Rivers and our 4th grade students are taking their state government studies on the road and heading to our state capitol, Sacramento. 6th and 7th graders have rescheduled their visit to Catalina for studies in marine life science for May 15th–17th. Lastly, our Preschool kiddos have a field trip planned on May 31st to The Wonder of Dinosaurs! Please keep our students and their travels in your prayers.

On campus, we have some major events happening as well:

May 1 -5: Teacher Appreciation Week begins!
Let’s make the time to celebrate our Bethany educators.
