Bethesda Elementary School
Mrs. Rucker’s 2nd graders at Bethesda Elementary School learned about government services (September 3rd – September 6th).

Real world experience with cover letters and resumes leading to interviews occupied Amanda Muniz’s Entrepreneurship class. These students will now run “The Colosseum”– the school store.

Project Support and Include (PSI) began to reward positive school behavior. Students meeting the desired criteria are awarded with an (ACE) Accountable, Civil, or Empowered ticket which goes toward possible prize drawings later in the year.
The Spartans golf teams have been setting new records left and right this year. The boys team score record was recently broken with a 158. The boys individual score record has been tied three times this season. Twice by Daniel Nelson and once by Skylar Cochran. It’s obvious that the team is on the precipice of some really great achievements. The girls team average is currently over .500 in one of the toughest districts in the state. Both teams are heading towards the district tournament on Sept. 23rdwith high expectations.Z
