Students of the month in grades K-4 celebrated their success with a pizza party sponsored by long time community partner Called to Serve. With slices and juice, they talked with Principal Dingle about why they were nominated by their teacher and how they are learning each day to be Bethune's Best!

As the leaves turn and begin to fall Bethune students are being engaged on a daily basis with enriching educational experiences. While we teach our students, we partner with our parents to ensure that the lessons learned at school are worked on at home and the learning experiences exceed the classroom doors!
