Boys Volleyball - Last Home Game!

Congratulations to our Boys Varsity Volleyball Team, and especially to our 8th graders on their incredible journey. The boys played their last home game last night to a joyous crowd! These boys were on our State Championship team last year, as well as 2nd place finishes the two years previous. We are so thankful to their parents, coaches, and fans who have supported this program since 5th grade. Congratulations, boys, on a tremendous 4 years. You've come so far, and we can't wait to see your light shine as you continue onto High School! #bethanyproud #endure

Moms & Muffins

It was a pleasure to host the annual Moms and Muffins this morning! We love our moms, aunts, and grandmothers . The blessings of motherhood are many: truly a gift from our Heavenly Father.

We hope you all enjoyed yourselves and had plenty to eat! What a great start to the weekend.

We couldn’t do it without the wonderful dads who helped us out today!! #bethanyproud #endure

We teach cursive handwriting so that children can read our founding documents AND their grandmother's birthday cards!

What are the benefits of learning to write in cursive? See below! Proud that Bethany Lutheran School Naperville, IL teaches our students to write in cursive! #bethanyproud #endure

𝐂𝐨𝐠𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭: The flowing motion of cursive writing stimulates brain synapses and improves working memory.

𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐬𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐬: Cursive writing requires the use of small muscles in the hands and fingers to form letters.

𝐋𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭: Cursive writing stimulates the part of the brain that develops language skills, which can improve reading and spelling skills.

𝐍𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠: Cursive can help you write faster and more efficiently.

𝐌𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡: Cursive writing can help reduce stress, increase focus and concentration, and improve overall brain function.

𝐃𝐲𝐬𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐚: Cursive writing can help dyslexic learners strengthen their handwriting and understanding of letter formation.

𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐡𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧: Cursive writing can improve comprehension because it requires students to retain more information than typing notes verbatim.

Strong foundation in Christ at Bethany Lutheran School

So many fun things to do!

Really fun weekend at Bethany Lutheran School Naperville, IL ! There was a little something for everyone! Friday night was our annual Daddy Daughter Dance - disco theme! Saturday was the fifth and sixth grade volleyball tournament (congrats on a 2nd place finish!) as well as a Cross Country meet for 3rd-8th graders (with some 1st place finishes!). We also hosted Oktoberfest complete with bouncy houses, delicious food, and themed music. If you’re looking for community you will find it at Bethany!

2024 - 2025 Chapel Offerings

This year’s chapel offerings will be going to our district’s mission “Hearts for Jesus 2024- 2025”. We will be raising funds to start the process to replace the playground through the  Belize Mission Society. The current playground at St. Alphonsus School in Seine Bight,  Belize has been decaying and is no longer a safe environment for the 200+ students. This playground is next to Christ Lutheran Church where the message of Jesus is proclaimed  in Word and deed. We get to be good neighbors and then speak of the Living Hope we have in  Our Savior. Like we desire to connect with our communities here, the mission in Seine Bight  wants to connect with children and families for the sake of the Kingdom. 

By investing in this project, we are not just building a playground; we are nurturing a  generation to grow strong in faith and body, reflecting the divine care God has for each of His  children. In Proverbs 22:6, we are reminded to “Train up a child in the way he should go,”  highlighting our responsibility to create environments that foster healthy development. Thank you for your support!


The 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 #endure

A reflection from an 8th grader....

"For the rest of my life, I will always remember the Christian education I’ve received, and hold it close to my heart." --a recent graduate

This 2023 graduate was at Bethany Lutheran School Naperville, IL for 11 years. Our #1 goal is to teach our students about Jesus and all that He has done. We are here to prepare them for this world and the next. All praise be to God! #bethanyproud #connectedinChrist

THE MISSION OF BETHANY LUTHERAN SCHOOL IS TO PROVIDE AN EXCELLENT CHRISTIAN EDUCATION AND TO INSPIRE CONFIDENT LEARNERS WHO ARE ABLE TO DISCERN BIBLICAL TRUTH, THINK CRITICALLY, AND LIVE A LIFE OF SERVICE TO GOD AND NEIGHBOR.
