Classroom Assignments
Looking
ahead to the 2014-2015 school year, parents will be allowed to send Mrs. Byrd a
letter providing information about their child(ren). This information will be
considered as the administrative team makes classroom assignments for next
year. You may choose to include your child’s strengths and weaknesses and also
his/her learning style. Please understand that we have many students at Bethel,
and we will do our best to accommodate students’ needs when possible. Separate
letters should be submitted for each child, and you are asked to submit a hard
copy of your letter(s). Parents will not be allowed to request a specific
teacher. If a specific request is made, it will not be honored. If you
choose to submit a letter to Mrs. Byrd, please do so no later than April 30.
PASS Testing
PASS
testing will take place May 6th-9th for third, fourth, and fifth grade
students. Please be sure your child attends school for testing as long as
he/she is well. PASS testing will take place in the following subjects – math,
reading, science, and social studies.
All Arts Night and Spring Choral Concert
Please
join us for All Arts Night on May 12th. Bethel’s new principal, Ms. Nerissa
Lewis, will be available to meet families in the cafeteria from 5:30-6:30 that evening.
Also starting at 5:30, the halls on the lower level will be a showcase of
student artwork. A scavenger hunt for hidden facts within the art will be fun
for all! Also during this time, our physical education staff will offer a fun,
active game in the gym for the entire family! To finish out the night, the
strings ensemble will kick off their performance at 6:30 in the cafeteria. They
will perform a short selection of songs. This will be followed by the Cardinal
Chorus. The chorus concert will feature diverse elementary choral pieces, two
of which will be performed at "The Festival of Music" at Carowinds on
May 3rd.
Bethel Bash
The
Bethel Bash is coming up on May 16th from 4:00-8:00 pm! We still need donations
of hair paint, silly string and confetti eggs. There will be a prize for the
class that has the most donations of eggs! Also, we still need volunteers the
