September 17 is Constitution Day!

โ€œToday at Bethany, we recognized Constitution Day, in honor of September 17, 1787, when the United States Constitution was signed. This foundational document reminds us of the blessings of liberty we share as Americans. As we celebrate these freedoms, we also remember that our true freedom is found in Christ, who sets us free indeed (John 8:36). #bethanyproud #makeajoyfulnoiseโ€

The Royal Run - 26.2 miles!

Today we kicked off our Royal Run! The children run 26.2 miles throughout the school year. They keep track of their progress, sharpening their math and graphing skills along the way. We had a glorious day for our big kick off! #bethanyproud #makeajoyfulnoise

We love seeing our kids in their Bethany spirit wear!

Lutheran Schools Week is off to a great start!

What better way to start Lutheran Schools Week than to have our students here singing in church! Students and staff could either come to the 8:30 or the 11 AM service to sing a hymn written specifically with the theme of With Endurance Run Your Race:

โ€œSaints of every race and nation, lift your voices, hands, and hearts to the Lord, who grants salvation, who from us shall never depart. Praise the Father, Son, and Spirit, who through water and the Word, calls us, keeps us, ever faithful in the true faith Godโ€™s conferred. โ€œ

We love our dads, uncles, grandpas, and special friends!

Just a few darling pics from todayโ€™s Dad and Donuts! We are so thankful for our dads, uncles, grandpas, and men who help to raise these precious children. We also want to thank everyone who provided donations and served to make this event a wonderful success! We could never do this without our amazing PTL! #bethanyproud #endure

Coding Class was SOOOOO fun and educational!

Last home basketball game!

The last home game of the year was so much fun! Both our boys JV and girls JV basketball teams played their hearts out! We love starting sports at a younger age (4th, 5th, 6th) so that the kids can practice giving glory to God rather than focusing on wins and losses. Our cheerleaders provided some incredible team spirit! We also honored the Varsity State Championship Volleyball Team by unveiling their banner. God be praised! #bethanyproud #endure

The sweetest Christmas program

Is there anything sweeter than children singing the Lord's praises? Bethany Lutheran School Naperville, IL's preschool students were just so darling at their Preschool Christmas Program! We thank Mrs. Downs for putting together such a beautiful program, the preschool teachers for their dedication, and the parents for being so supportive.

Big thank you to P is for Party for the gorgeous photo backdrop, and https://lanapshyk.my.canva.site/ for capturing these precious moments.

We hope and pray that during this Advent season your hearts and minds are preparing for the coming of Jesus at Christmas! God's blessings! #bethanyproud #endure

We have never felt more welcome!

A deep dive into Egypt

What an exciting week in 6th grade Humanities!

Our students dived deep into the world of ancient Egypt by reading The Egypt Game , exploring its fascinating culture, history, and mysteries. After learning about mummies, pyramids, and pharaohs, they wrapped up the lesson with a hands-on activityโ€”mummifying stuffed animals!

It was a creative and fun way to bring ancient Egypt to life. They will bring everything to completion with a writing essay. What a great way to end our journey into this incredible civilization! #bethanyproud #endure

Creating our own Macy's Day Parade

Creative Collaboration for the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade!

Our 4th and 8th graders teamed up to bring their imaginations to life after reading Balloons over Broadway. Inspired by the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, they worked together to design and create their very own floats!

From brainstorming ideas to crafting colorful, creative designs, every student put their heart and soul into bringing their float vision to life. We couldn't be more proud of their teamwork and creativity! #bethanyproud #endure
