What we do
Bethel Lutheran School seeks to nurture the
spiritual, cognitive, physical, emotional and social growth of each
child according to his or her unique abilities and challenges. Daily
worship and lessons in the Christian faith and in the Lutheran
tradition, and myriad opportunities for stewardship lead Bethel
students to meaningful expressions of their spirituality. Bethel
School addresses the cognitive needs of the child with a curriculum
developed from national standards recommended by professional
organizations representing science, mathematics, social studies,
language arts, art and music. Physical fitness and health education
are included in each day's instruction. As part of a Christian
community with a rich tradition of diversity, Bethel Lutheran School
promotes understanding and acceptance within its community by
facilitating discussion of emotional and social issues at school and
at home.
Small class size and multi-grade classrooms contribute to Bethel's
mission of nurturing the child as a unique individual. Instruction
is focused on the developmental learning stage of each child,
rather than on a specific grade level. Multi-grade classrooms enhance
the learning environment by offering mentoring and peer tutoring
opportunities. Working with the same teacher and classmates for more
than one year provides continuity and stability for our children,
and results in a comfortable, familiar learning environment. Bethel
Lutheran School is committed to creating a loving, supportive and
safe environment for its children.
