Are you interested in serving on Bethel’s School Improvement Council? Our SIC meets one hour a month (Thursdays at 9:00 am) to discuss topics related to school improvement. This is a great way to learn more about our school and get involved! The committee is comprised of parents, community members, and staff. Please email Brenda Byrd at bbyrd@greenville.k12.sc.us if you are interested.

Cardinal Cafe News
Students are really enjoying our new Culinary Creations menu in the cafeteria. If your child hasn't tried it yet, we encourage them to do so. Students can choose a hot lunch (choice A or choice B) or the Vegetation Station (choice C). The Vegetation Station is available everyday and it includes soup, salad bar, and bread. We would love for parents to come in and try out the new menu with their child. We know you will love it!!
Payment is expected either in advance or at the point of service. Charging is not allowed in schools or for adult meals. If parents or guardians find it impossible to pay for student meals, please apply for free and reduced meals by completing an application available in the front office.
Please take advantage of the options to prepay your student's meal accounts. Prepaid meal accounts help the lunch lines go faster and gives students more time to eat and relax. It also gives you the peace of mind of not having to worry about looking for lunch money every day or worry that it might get lost, stolen or used for other things other than lunch. Online payments are a simple, safe and secure way to make payments to your students account 24 hours a day at your convenience. Put money on your child's account from home. Just click on the following link and follow the easy instructions.
