Real Life Math

What better way to learn about dividing fractions than by practicing with real life recipes! #bethanyproud #sent2serve

Marty and Randy

It’s time to get creative, Royals! We are issuing a writing challenge to our second through eighth graders at Bethany. These adorable handmade forest animals will be the subject of a creative writing story, and the winner will take them home. Mrs. Dunwell will be judging the writing on creativity, conflict resolution, and the teaching of a moral or value. Each of the classes got to “meet” Marty and Randall today and ask questions. Best of luck to all of our writers! Handwritten submissions (along with a typed final draft if desired) are due by October 31 to Mrs. Fox. Go Royals!

Kindergarten Learning

It’s a busy day in kindergarten! Cutting, drawing, sorting, gluing, vocab words, learning about community and firefighters and first responders, and so much more! #bethanyproud #sent2serve

the Royal Run

Today we kicked off our Royal Run! The students run a quarter mile at a time throughout the year, and by the end of the year, they will have run 26.2 miles. Thanks to Mr. Baganz for organizing a great day. We paired it with a BLS Spirit Day; check out the beautiful spirit our kids have! #bethanyproud #Sent2Serve

We ❤️ having pastors in our classrooms!

The "eyes" have it!

“....for my eyes have seen your salvation that you have prepared in the presence of all peoples, a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and for glory to your people Israel.””

‭‭Luke‬ ‭2:30-32‬

Enjoy these pencil drawings by some of our Jr. High students!

Celebrating our Alumnae!

Let's celebrate Bethany Alumnae Brittany and Fran today! Fran is a Human Biology major on the Pre-Med track, and Brittany is is studying Psychology and Church Ministry at Concordia Wisconsin. Please take a moment to pray for these beautiful and talented ladies today!

Fun fact: They have been friends for 13 years (since Kindergarten at Bethany Lutheran School!) and became even closer in High School as they encouraged one another in their Christian walk. Good friends in the Lord are a blessing!

1st Cross Country race of the season!

1st race of the season! So proud of these kids who ran tough despite rainy weather. Thanks to the coaches, fans, and teachers who came out to support our Royals! #bethanyproud

The Lord is with us, always!

Our 2nd graders are learning about Creation, the Flood, and God's promises during religion class. The Lord is with us always!

"...just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” Matthew 20:28

Welcome to His Kingdom!

God bless this beautiful child in her baptism! We welcome her with loving arms to God's kingdom, and pray for a blessed life in Christ.

Amen, we LOVE our Christian Schools

Observational Drawing in Jr. High

Incredible art pieces by our Jr. High! In order to work on their observational drawing skills, the students drew an object from their art box. The object was altered for the 2nd drawing, and finally, they added either a human or animal characteristic as well as movement for the 3rd and 4th drawings. Thanks for such an entertaining lesson, Mrs. Staunch! #bethanyproud #Sent2Serve

Rain, rain, go away.... ahh never mind. We love indoor recess too!

Sent to Serve

The theme of Bethany Lutheran School for the 2020 school year is “Sent to Serve” taken from Matthew 20:28.

In keeping with this theme, we have many different service projects planned for all ages throughout the school year.

Today a group children learned how to pull weeds, step around the good plants, and maintain an outside area. Each student got their own special pair of garden gloves.

There are so many reasons to be thankful this year. #Bethanyproud #sent2serve

1st Grade Prayer Requests = Priceless

For God so loved the world...

We have 63 new students this year! Praise God for His faithfulness.

Here’s our hallway bulletin board, sharing Jesus’ gift of salvation to all our BLS students- in person!

7 acres of gorgeous property!

Getting outside to enjoy God’s glorious creation is so important to us. We have seven acres of gorgeous property for the kids to explore and play. Even our Jr. High goes outside for recess. It’s SO needed!

In-person learning since August 19, 2020

Project Faith was the name of the initiative to open our school doors in 2020. Praise God, we’ve been in person since August 19th, and having an absolutely fabulous year. We are #sent2serve!

Laying a firm foundation since 1930

Bethany Lutheran Church and School opened her doors in 1930 in Naperville on Washington Street. We are in our 3rd location, but always in Naperville. We’ve been at 1550 Modaff for the past 21 years. The Gospel has been preached many many times from this building, and we are blessed beyond measure!

Christ the King

Did you know?

The overall them of our stained glass windows is Christ the King: The village of Bethany, for which our church and school is named, is known for many glorious acts in Jesus' life including the start of His Palm Sunday entrance into Jerusalem, the raising of Lazarus, and the ascension into heaven. These windows take their cue from the ascension into heaven upon which Christ began to rule the entire universe. He reigns over all time and space as is depicted in all our stained glass windows at Bethany. Come in and take a look to learn more!
