Our next Spirit Night will be at Fuddruckers on Tuesday, February 26, 2013 from 5-8 pm. Take a night off from cooking and join us for good food and fun. We look forward to having some of our 3rd-5th grade students serve us as waiters. Please make sure you mention Bethel when ordering.

Multiage Application Process 2013-2014
We will accept multiage applications March 4th–22nd. You may pick up an application in the front office starting March 4th. A multiage brochure containing detailed information will go home in Friday folders. Our Primary Multiage consists of 1st/2nd graders, and Intermediate Multiage is 3rd/4th graders. We will have open spaces in all four of these grade levels. A structured lottery will be used to select students for multiage. Parents will be notified of selection results in April.

Extended Day Registration 2013-2014
We will accept new Extended Day (after school) registrations March 4th -22nd. Depending on the number of registrations, we may have a lottery from the registrations collected during this time period to determine which students will receive a spot in the program for next year. Space is limited! The registration fee is $40 per family. Forms are available at www.greenville.k12.sc.us/bethel or in the front office. If you have any questions, contact our director, Janice Broyles, at 355-4167.

Bethel Bash Items Needed
Although it seems like light years away, the Bethel Bash is right around the corner. This year’s Bash will be held on Friday, May 17th, 2013 from 5-8 pm. This is a favorite day for the students and staff at Bethel, and it has proven to be a fabulous night out full of family, friendly fun!!! We are still in need of donations of silly string, colored hair spray and confetti eggs. A confetti egg DIY went home recently in Friday Folders. Extra copies are available in the front office. The class that sends in the most confetti eggs will receive a pajama day!!
