Congratulations to Hailey Gilbert for being recognized as the Person County winner of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) American History Essay Contest. This prestigious contest encourages students to explore significant events in American history and express their understanding through essay writing. Hailey's essay stood out for its historical accuracy, creativity, and insightful analysis. Her achievement not only highlights her academic success, but also reflects the dedication of our BHCS educators in fostering a deep appreciation for history among our students.

Hailey was recognized for her accomplishments at a DAR ceremony held Saturday, February 8, 2025.

Please join us in congratulating Hailey on this remarkable achievement. We are proud of her hard work and the exemplary representation of our school in this esteemed competition.

Big shout out to three BHCS teachers whose EVAAS growth index score from last year’s tests were in the top 25% in the state! Congratulations to...

Mrs. Bass: Reading

Mrs. Melton: Reading

Mrs. Chalk: Math

We have strong teachers here at BHCS and they are to be commended for their dedication each day to our students, families, and BHCS team! Go Wildcats!!!

Our 2nd grade students have been studying the westward expansion and working on projects to help bring this part of the curriculum to life. One project involved making a covered wagon (pictured below). Another project is the "Go West" musical that will be performed in the school auditorium on Thursday, March 27 at 7:00pm. We hope you can join us and get a glimpse of all our 2nd graders have been studying!

Students in 4th Grade have been studying about how various forces affect motion along with learning about electrical circuits and how electrical energy causes motion and creates change.

To put this knowledge to the test, students will use a kit to construct a car to race in the Annual Bethel Hill 500 on Wednesday, March 5. Part of the construction process will involve running the wires from an electrical source to a switch to power their car. On race day, students will run their cars to see whose car runs the fastest (and straightest 😉) to the finish line. We hope you can join us for the exciting event and best of luck to all 4th Grade!

Students have been reading and preparing for the Battle of the Books and it is just around the corner! The battle will take place on Tuesday, March 25 at 9:00am in the auditorium. We are excited to see our super-reader teams show off their book smarts! Go Wildcats!

Congratulations to the students at Bethel Hill Charter School for their efforts in raising money for the American Heart Association during our Kids Heart Challenge! Our students have raised right at $12,700!! The money raised will go towards research and education. Way to go Wildcats!

So proud of our WILDCATS!!!!
