My experience at Bethel High School had both its good and bad moments. The staff and faculty are pretty amazing, but the students are my biggest concern. In this day and age sadly being under the influence while at school has become the new norm. School used to be a place where you go to enrich your education, branch out, meet new people, and explore your inner self on a deeper level, but now school has become a place where students come to be intoxicated and "kick it" with their friends, or fight. I would like to see the staff become more involved with the students, most of them have major issues going on in their lives which is why they turn to drugs, but with engaging activities (that the students can relate to) it will help ease their issues and distract them from drugs.
Bethel school district provided us with a lot of technology, such as iPads from when I was in 7th grade. Although Covid was unexpected, it gave us an opportunity to continue learning easily so I would like to thank the district for all they did for us students!
There are definitely issues in the school district, but in my personal experience, I have loved it here. My teachers are amazing and the curriculum is pretty decent for AP and Cambridge programs. There is definitely room for improvement in terms of equity and accessibility.
