GLT on Tour Miss Nelson is Missing
Word of the Week: resilient
Definition: able to become strong, healthy, or successful
after something bad happens
Sentence: Josh
was resilient after having surgery on his leg.
Happy
New Year! Thank you to all the wonderful
PTA volunteers who made the Gingerbread Shop such a success! Our students were so proud to take home gifts
for family and friends. Many volunteers
worked endless hours to make this event happen.
I also want to thank those who helped with the crockpot luncheon for the
staff. We appreciate all you do! In addition, we want to thank PTA for funding
a special opportunity coming up this month. Greenville Little Theater is coming to Bethel to perform Miss Nelson is Missing for all students
on January 9 during two assemblies. This
play is adapted from the popular children’s books by the same title. We appreciate PTA for providing this
educational opportunity!
Inclement Weather
In
case of inclement weather, be sure to check the radio or television stations
for emergency school announcements. Official announcements about Greenville
County School System closings will be broadcast on WYFF-TV (channel 4) and
Charter Cable Channels 14 or 99. You can also call the school district INFOLine
at 355-3100 or go to the Greenville County School website at www.greenville.k12.sc.us. When
schools are on a two-hour delay, no breakfast will be served. Buses will run
two hours later than their normal times. School will begin two hours later than
the regularly scheduled time. Instead of 8:00, the tardy bell will ring at
10:00. Please note that students will not be supervised until 9:15 when there
is a two-hour delay.
K5 and 1st Grade Registration for 2014-2015
We
will hold registration for kindergarten and new first grade students for the
2014-2015 school year January 13th-16th.
Parents can download the registration forms and information from our
website or you may pick up a copy at our school. Registrations should be hand delivered to the
school during office hours – 7:30 am to 4:00 pm. Parents need to provide the completed
registration form, two proofs of residence (recent utility bill such as water
and power), an immunization record and a birth certificate (long form). Early registration ensures that we have
enough teachers in place to accommodate our students for the fall. Please help us spread the word in the
community!
Mark
your calendars NOW for a special Spirit Night on Tuesday, January 7th. Join us
at Chick-fil-A on Woodruff Road where a great local company, Bricks 4 Kidz,
will be hosting activities for our children at no additional cost!! Bricks 4 Kidz
programs provide an extraordinary atmosphere for students to build
unique creations, play games, and have loads of fun using LEGO® bricks. The
activities are designed to trigger young children’s lively imaginations and
build their self-confidence. Children work with themes such as Space, Laws of
Motion, Amazing Animals and Inventions to create and build models. Come join us and enjoy a break for cooking as
we support Bethel Elementary School! As
always, Bethel PTA will receive 20% of sales from 5-8:00 pm. Please mention
Bethel when ordering.
