🍎 Goodies with Grands at Bethel Elementary!

We’re excited to welcome our grandparents to Goodies with Grands for a special morning of treats, smiles, and time together! ❤️🖤

Grandparents are invited to join their students in the cafeteria from 7:00–7:45 AM on their designated day:

Wednesday, September 16: Grades 1 & 4
Thursday, September 17: Grades 2 & 5
Friday, September 18: Kindergarten & Grade 3
Visitors should enter through the cafeteria entrance and receive a visitor sticker upon arrival. After enjoying the morning together, grandparents may visit the Book Fair with their students in the library until 8:15 AM. Students will then walk to class independently while visitors exit through the exterior Media Center door.

We are so grateful for the special role grandparents play in the lives of our Cardinals. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!

District Cell Phone and Electronic Device Policy

Due to a legislative action by the South Carolina General Assembly, the South Carolina State Board of Education passed a new cell phone policy for school districts across the state, which goes into effect after Winter Break, starting January 7, 2025. School districts must adopt this policy pertaining to personal electronic devices. At the December meeting, the Greenville County Schools Board of Trustees approved an updated policy to comply with the state requirement. The revisions can be found in Policy JCDA and Administrative Rule JCDA.
