Mrs. Elam & Ms. Pfeiffer’s class blasted into a fun week of learning as we celebrated the splashdown of Artemis II! Our kindergarten astronauts explored the solar system, learned about planets and stars, discovered what astronauts do, and even learned about NASA!

Last week, our high school students in Matilda the Musical held previews of the show for our elementary students! This gave the high school students a chance to practice in front of a live audience, while our students in grades K-4 were able to enjoy a selection of songs from the musical. It really got everyone excited for the upcoming show!

If you'd like to come see Matilda the Musical this weekend, April 17th-19th, you can get tickets on the Student Activities page of our website, which can be found here: https://www.bethelk12.org/page/student-activities-tickets
