Valentine's Day Parties
We will have Valentine’s Day parties on February 14th – K5 & Mrs. Irick’s class (10:30-11:15) and 1st – 5th grades (1:15-2:00). Please remember to provide a balance of sweets and healthy foods for the party! Parents who assist with the parties will be asked to leave at 2:00 for security reasons allowing us to prepare for a safe afternoon dismissal. Parents will no longer be allowed to sign children out from the classroom during events such as parties and the school picnic. Students with early dismissals must go through the front office. Thank you for helping us with school safety!
Jump Rope for Heart is a fundraiser to benefit the American Heart Association. Students will be collecting donations for the American Heart Association during the month of February and participating in a jump rope celebration day during their P.E. classes the week of Valentine’s Day, February 11th -15th. For more information please click on the Jump Rope for Heart link.

SCIENCE FAIR
Science Fair projects are due in your child's classroom on February 22nd. Projects must include an experiment, NOT a demonstration. It must include a question that you do an experiment to answer. Students should choose a topic in which they are interested. Remember to keep your science simple – it is more important to follow (and write up) the steps of the scientific method than to have a complicated project. We will recognize our school's Science Fair winners at our PTA Science Fair Night, Monday, March 11th. Please contact your child's teacher for more information, or visit the Bethel website.
Car Hangtags
This is a reminder that parents are expected to display their Bethel issued hangtag in the car lines. Anyone without a hangtag will be asked to sign their child out in the front office. Thank you for helping us ensure the safety of our students.
