ATTENTION!  Our Spring DINO-MITE Scholastic book fair will be here April 1 - 5.  Don't miss your chance to grab some great books to read over spring break and the summer!  The book fair will be located in the gym this time, AND it will be open during Family Reading and Math night.

One Book, One School

Our school is excited about our One Book ~ One School reading adventure. Please use the following pacing schedule at home as you snuggle up for storytime together. We have many activities planned at school to integrate all subjects.

Our book celebration will be a Family Math & Literacy night on April 4, 2019 beginning at 5:00 PM. Let’s get reading!

Tobacco - Free Campus

Our district recently adopted the policy of having a tobacco-free environment. 24/7, for all campuses. Please click on link below to read more. Thank you, in advance, for adhering to this policy.

Tobacco - Free Policy 

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!
