Last week, our 7th Grade students visited the Dayton Society of Natural History's Sunwatch Village, a pre-historic site and visitor's center that preserves the remains of a 12th-century Fort Ancient culture settlement. Students were able to get an insight into the lives, traditions, and innovations of the Fort Ancient people who inhabited the region! #BethelLegacy

Muse Machine held their first in-school presentation last week, featuring the music stylings of Terrell X, an incredible human beatboxer! Terrell X worked with students to show them how songs can be made from scratch with just the use of the human body and voice. Students even worked together to recreate the opening of Michael Jackson's Billie Jean! #BethelLegacy

Attention Parents: Bethel High School and Middle School will have a remote learning day on Tuesday, November 3rd, due to election polling!

Students will stay home and will have an assignment for each class. Assignments will be given the preceding day or may be posted on Google Classroom. Teachers will be available during school hours to answer questions via email.

Buses will run from Bethel to the MVCTC; however, students who attend the CTC will be responsible for their transportation to and from Bethel.

Elementary students will be unimpacted by the election polling and will report as scheduled.
