From KCSD Nutrition Services:

Please note that any student riding on an application from last year must complete a new application every year. The application from last year will expire October 1 and Oct 2- they will revert to a paid status.

Parents will be responsible for charges while an application is being processed.

Starting Friday, August 31st, students will be selling our Wild Kitten Discount Cards for BET's PTO.  Cards are $7 each.  We would like for every student to sell at least 1 card.  Classes that have 100% participation will receive EXTRA recess.  Please help support our PTO. 

Parents/Guardians in the Kershaw County School District have the right to learn about the following qualifications of their child's teacher: state licensure requirements for the grade level and content areas taught, the current licensing status of your child's teacher, and baccalaureate/graduate certification/degree. You may also request the qualifications of an instructional paraprofessional who serves your student in a Title I program or if your school operates a schoolwide Title I program. Parents/Guardians may request this information from the principal by calling 843-334-6278 or by sending a letter of request to Principal Estelle Benson at estelle.benson@kcsdschools.net.

Bethune Elementary School gives out all teachers’ information sheets at our school registration, and we did this year, as well. If you did not receive the information sheet about your child’s teacher, please feel free to email me or have your child ask the teacher for it. (We also send letters and/or phone calls to parents of affected students at other times of the year if a classroom teacher leaves and another teacher takes over the class.)

Thank you for making Bethune Elementary a special place for children to attend school!
