We are heading into our second year at Bethel Elementary and I cannot say enough wonderful things about the staff here. I am extremely particular and Bethel Elementary has completely blown me away. I do make it a point to be very active within the school so that I can see firsthand what is going on and how things are being done. I have never once felt as if this school wasn't top-tier. I have seen the staff love these children as if they were their own time and time again. I have been highly impressed with what my daughter has learned and the variety of "specials" that are offered each day. I love that she gets to dabble in numerous different subjects to harvest an early love of a variety of things. I see a lot of previous reviews directly pertain to the admin staff. I should mention in this review that those are older and there is a completely different admin staff than years previous. I have collaborated directly with both of the current principals and I can say without a shadow of a doubt that their number one priority is making sure these children are safe and have a great learning environment and experience. We absolutely love this school and almost put our child in a private school, but decided against it and I am so glad we did!

Terrible school. The staff does not care about the students and does not try to help the parents with anything at all. They are rude and condescending to the parents so I don't even want to think how they treat the students on a daily basis. God forbid, you don't speak the right language and need a little extra help or you don't fit the perfect parent and child mold they want, they treat you like you are an inconvenience and stupid.

We were not happy with Bethel. They treat others as outsiders. They do not offer services other larger districts offer in terms of disabilities.

My sons attend Bethel. I found the elementary principal rude and very condescending. Every time we had to speak to her about I problem she was very patronizing and honestly flat out rude. I find her to be this way in passing as well. If you are a new student they treat you as an outsider. They have a Facebook page to rant about "outsiders". To bad seems like it could be a lovely place if staff was open minded.

My son attends Bethel Elementary and I am very displeased with the school overall. They have very limited services in dealing with children with any sort of learning disabilities and their unwillingness to help is astounding. I would not recommend this school for any parent with a non-textbook child.

Bethel has been an amazing school for our son. We don't live in the district but participate in the open enrollement at Bethel and are so thankful for this oportunity. The teachers and principal have gone above and beyond to enrich my son's academic needs.
