"Our Primary Purpose is to Improve Student Achievement."

Welcome to the Bethel Public Schools Website

We are “Committed to Excellence”, and we work hard to make this site a primary source for timely information for all users, and a main gateway for improved communication between parents, teachers, students, and other members of our community. Consult the site for detailed information about curriculum, calendars, events, research links, and newsletters. It’s all here. All five of Bethel’s public schools and athletic facilities are located in a beautiful 140-acre Educational Park near the geographical center of the community. The site is considered to be one of the most attractive and functional school complexes in this part of the nation. Parents find the proximity of the schools to be ideal for car-pooling, facilitating transitions between schools, and participating in the full scope of services offered by the school system. The park is the social and recreational center of the community. (Read more)

Our Mission:

The mission of the Bethel Public Schools is to foster a culture of excellence and achievement accomplished through strong, collaborative relationships and rigorous teaching and learning opportunities for all learners. Our graduates will be compassionate, skilled and inquisitive individuals, who take initiative in making positive contributions to society.

Our Core Beliefs:

We believe:

• that educational excellence benefits the entire community and is the shared responsibility of students, families, educators, staff, and citizens. 
• that equity is a fundamental value, providing for high-quality education, and that the diversity of our students is an asset to the educational community. 
• in having high expectations for all children to learn and grow to their full potential.
• in developing caring, respectful, and supportive relationships among stakeholders which creates an environment that fosters social-emotional growth.
• that if we want our students to engage in a global workforce and become effective stewards of democracy, we need to develop their ability to think critically, become effective collaborators, creators, and innovators.
• in the necessity of teaching students to become informed and positive contributing members of society.
• that recruiting, developing, and retaining exceptional educators creates a rigorous learning environment that will prepare our students for the demands of the future workforce.
• that safe, secure, well-maintained, equipped facilities are essential for the physical, social-emotional, and intellectual development of our students.
• in communicating the fundamental value and quality of education being delivered in our schools.

The Bethel Public Schools has adopted the CAPSS Equity Statement:

Equity is achieved when student outcomes are not predicted by gender, race, ethnicity, class, or special needs and where all students reach a level of efficacy and competencies that support a rewarding and productive life. This requires the elimination of the inequalities that contribute to disproportionate learning and achievement by students of different social groups while ensuring all students are prepared for a productive and meaningful life.
