Bethel Local Schools - Educate with Excellence

Kindergartners in Mrs. Berning’s flexible group worked on nonsense words. This ensures they are able to decode and blend words that they do not know. They also enjoyed several rounds of bingo to practice their blending and decoding skills. #K5hive

Bethel High School is proud to have two of our sophomore students, Trista Swift and Avery Mahurin, participating in the Relations exhibition happening at the University of Dayton this month, which will display two of their original artworks in collaboration with our Art Teacher, Mrs. Powell! Relations opens January 12th, 2023 at Radial Gallery, which is located on the 2nd floor of Fitz Hall in the Department of Art and Design at the University of Dayton. There will then be a public reception on Thursday, January 19th, from 5-7pm. Radial Gallery is also open from 9am-5pm Monday through Thursday, 9am-2pm Friday, and 11am-4pm on Sunday. Visitors may obtain a parking pass from the parking attendant at the main entrance of Fitz Hall. Relations draws together Ohio Art Educators and students/mentors and their students’ students, as well in an effort to address the complexity of relationships between teacher – student, art educator – artist, or mentor – mentee. Relations is an exhibition space where people who work in the field of art and art education can share their work, in relationship to another artist/art educator. These artists explore, visually, how relationships between teachers and students develop, morph, and transform as we work in our classrooms, studio practices, or with the passage of time. The Relations exhibition runs from January 12th through February 15th. #BethelLegacy

Students are working toward earning at least three B3 slips for quarter 2. In order to earn a B3 slip, students must show they are respectful, responsible, and ready to learn. Our goal is for 100% of our K-5 students to succeed in earning three B3 slips, and those who do will earn the reward of a dessert bar and get to choose their seat at lunch, within their grade level, on January 20th. We hope you will assist in rewarding our students by donating dessert items. We appreciate all of your support in making our PBIS initiative possible for our elementary students. If you would like to donate a dessert item, please sign up through this link: https://bit.ly/Q2_PBIS #BethelLegacy
