Bethel Local Schools - Educate with Excellence

Hive Health Check! During this time of year when there is increased illness and spread, we need to do our best to help keep each other healthy! Please keep your child home for 24 hours if they have had any fever, diarrhea, or vomiting. If your child has been sick for more than 2-3 days, consider calling your physician for evaluation. We are currently seeing a lot of strep, influenza A & B, Covid, and gastrointestinal viruses. The Miami County Health Department has also informed us that pertussis (whooping cough) has been circulating. The best way to combat these is by staying home when sick and washing our hands! As we continue through the cold and flu season, please be sure to monitor your child for any symptoms, and keep them home if they have any. If your child is sick, please report their absence to the office of their building level. The phone numbers for each building's offices are as follows: Elementary School: (937) 845-9439 Middle School: (937) 845-9430 High School: (937) 845-9487 #BethelLegacy
