Our wonderful students came back to school on Wednesday, August 21 and we are off to a great start. We welcomed two new teachers this year: Miss Hannah McFaul in our 3 & 4 year old class, and Mrs. Chelsea Northrop who is co-teaching 5th grade this year with Mrs. Melanie Podley. As a school we are always striving to improve and enhance our offerings, and we are excited to share these updates with you:
We have adopted a new science curriculum from BJU Press which equips students to ethically engage in the work of science through this lab-based program. Students have opportunities to collect and analyze data and to create and evaluate their own models through guided discovery labs, inquiry labs, and collaborative STEM experiences.
This summer we did many campus upgrades and improvements such as a new sensory play area in our playground, new fence playground fence and renovated middle school restrooms
We added a new keyboard studio with state of the art equipment that will enable our music teacher to offer group piano lessons beginning this spring
We are excited to be offering some new afterschool opportunities such as our Running Club and Science Club.
This school year Bethany will be reviewing, updating and implementing our Strategic Plan with a site visit from Christian School Management (CSM)
Our themes for the year are The Armor of God and Build on the Rock based on our verses for the year which are Ephesians 6:10-18 and Matthew 7:24-29:
Plans are already underway for middle school spring musical which will be “Beauty and the Beast”
We ask you all to be in prayer for our faculty, staff and administration as we serve our wonderful Bethany students and families that this 2024-25 would be one of learning, growth and faith.
