Our Teachers Work and Play Together!
It's hard to believe it's December!
Can you believe it is December 3rd? We've been in school for over 3 months and we are so proud of the learning that has been happening at Bethke. Our teachers and students have overcome construction and material challenges and are making tremendous gains. More excitement is coming! Beginning the second semester, you'll learn about our SEM--School Enrichment Model. This will include an enrichment hour on Fridays, but will include so much more than that. We are providing opportunities for our students to discover what they are passionate about, and use those interest to increase their learning in every subject.
We'll be asking for your help too. There will be materials we need and we'll be asking for parents to help us in our enrichment clusters, and share their own passions. It will be exciting for us all!
Thank you for your continued support, through your volunteerism, your fundraising and just your kind words of support and encouragement. Bethke truly has the best students, parents and teachers!

If you haven't had a chance yet to get involved in our PTA, now is the time! Bethke Students and teachers will have the best support system led by our PTA Volunteers. They have already been hard at work collecting donations for teachers, getting items to beautify our building and making plans for programs for our students. Follow them on Facebook at Bethke PTA. https://www.facebook.com/Bethke-Elementary-PTA-1611420235850681/?fref=ts
