First Day of School – A Warm Welcome to Our Families
We are excited to welcome all students back to Bethel Christian Academy for the start of a new school year! As we begin this journey together, we encourage each child to “let your light so shine” as they grow in faith, knowledge, and character.
To ensure a seamless start, all students are expected to arrive in their full approved uniform and bring the required school supplies. This helps us begin the year with order, confidence, and unity. Please note that students will not be permitted into the classroom without proper uniform and supplies.
Parents, thank you for partnering with us in preparing your children for success. Your support makes this first day — and every day — a joyful step in their educational and spiritual journey.
