This coming summer – we ask that you, the parents, again attend ONE important meeting at BLS. For the 3rd year we are using an online registration process for much of the information we need from you. The online process takes only 10-15 minutes. We are asking that you accomplish this registration for each child by July 15. The online registration process for 2016-’17 is available right now!
Finally, please reserve either Tuesday, Aug 15 at G’Town (6:30 PM) or Tuesday, Aug 22 at Meno. Falls (6:30 PM) on your calendar and plan to attend this one compulsory meeting where final registration as well as school/classroom orientation occurs. Your attendance at this one summer meeting is very important! We hope this online registration streamlines the process and helps us get 100% attendance at the August Final Registration/ Classroom Orientation meeting.
Thank you. Principal Weber
BETHLEHEM ENDS SCHOOL YEAR!
The 2016-‘17 school year is coming quickly to a close. Tomorrow’s dismissal at 11:30 A.M. marks the end of the school year. By God’s grace, it has been another year in which quality education was offered with a distinct Christian foundation. The 357 children of Bethlehem (PreK-8) have grown so much in this past year! This year, we kept our focus on the fact that “God is so Good.”
The faculty certainly appreciates the privilege of educating your children. It is a joyful responsibility we do not take lightly. As we close this school year, please accept our sincere thanks for productively working with the faculty and administration of Bethlehem Lutheran School. We consider it a joy to work with the “family” of Bethlehem in pursuit of the worthwhile goal of quality, Christian education. To God be the Glory!
THANK YOU!
What a privilege it is . . . to witness the love and generosity of our God as shown through you, the parents and members of Bethlehem. There are so many who have volunteered and given time, talent, energy, and support to our school this past year . . . Every year, I am amazed by the level of generosity demonstrated by parents and members in support of this school. Please know that this year as always, the faculty and I are incredibly appreciative. That support (Time, Talent, Treasure) is a special blessing to our school. Certainly, without that support and involvement – our school would be much less. Please accept the faculty’s and my sincere thanks. We thank God for you!
