Bethany means a warm smile-
Throughout the years, friends have come and gone, some staying for many years, others for one year. Whether they remained for many years or one year, they have had a positive impact on me and have made me the person I am today. The staff is fun, welcoming, kind, and very caring. Whether you are having a bad day or are just walking down the hallway and pass a staff member, they greet you with a warm smile and a kind “hello.” The student and staff are not the only things I appreciate about Bethany. The ability to worship freely and learn about Jesus is another thing I love about Bethany. The school also works to prevent bullying and make sure everyone is treating each other in a Christian manner. The principal handles all of the students like they were his children. I am genuinely thankful to everyone at this school for making it the kind of environment that allows me to learn and freely express and learn about Jesus. --written by a Jr. High student

Bethany is like my second home. From friends to favorite teachers, Bethany is very important to me. The best part is, that everyday, you get to be around a Christian environment. And, you make lots of friends because you are always around them. There is barely any bullying, if someone spills their stuff, there is usually a crowd helping them pick up their stuff. Another example is at lunch, no one sits alone. EVER. I have gone too Bethany since preschool, (including book bunch) and plan to go there until high school.

Everyday I go to school, I always enjoy Bethany. I like Bethany because the teachers always try to help you learn and the students are very welcoming. There are always entertaining opportunities, as well as equal privileges. When I walk into school, I always feel a warm glow. I always feel safe as I go play outside, run in gym, or solve a math equation. On top of all that, we also spend time learning about the Bible and find out ways to control your feelings in a program called Second Step. That program has saved me many times when I was going to have a epic melt down. Bethany also has very healthy food, but tasty enough so kids like them. Along with that, they also have many types of food, and offer something to eat if you forget to bring a lunch. These are only some of many ways I like Bethany.
