We entered week 1 with the best resource FINALLY stepping foot in our brand new
building – our scholars! Learners arrived at Bethke Elementary on Monday from many
locations in and out of our district. Our school opened our doors with 613
students ready to embrace learning! It was such a beautiful sight. When a new
school opens, there are so many possibilities for all the new ideas that will
flood into a building from ALL learners!
The excitement on our campus is just amazing! All of our resources haven’t
quite arrived and you would never know from the activities happening in
classrooms. Teachers creatively provided open-ended opportunities for our
scientists, mathematicians, and readers. It has been fun to enter learning
studios this week to see all our learners engaged and collaborating with others
on projects. Thank you Bethke educators for making sure our students loved
learning this week. I can't wait to see what this school year brings as we Build our Bethke Legacy! Follow the action on Twitter #BethkeLegacy.

This is soooo exciting! In a new school you don't have to worry about changing mindsets and entrenched ways of doing things - possibilities are wide open. I can't wait to read more about how this first year unfolds for you
