The Bethel School District isn’t bad, but their isn’t anything extraordinary about it. They do however leave a bad taste in my mouth. Over the past, I believe, two years, they have been trying to pass this bond. Obviously it hasn’t passed yet. This is because most of the people voting no don’t think the district us spending their bond money properly, also because they are still paying for, if I remember right, three of the previous bonds. I get that they want new schools built to create smaller classes and rebuild Bethel High School (which has been falling apart for the past year), but the fact they Bethel High School as the main reason to pass this bond, it would be pretty much the last thing done.
It has problems with drugs and violence and infrastructure failures just like every school district. However, this relatively average group of people all care deeply about their community. In the past few months, I have had the chance to be part of the Bethel School District's "strategic planning team." This team was a collection of individuals from the Spanaway area, all from completely different backgrounds including; college reps, local businesses owners, teachers, students, workers, and parents who were devoted to creating the best possible plan for the future of the Bethel School District, its faculty, the community, local business, nearby colleges and most importantly the pursuit of an outstanding public education for all students regardless of race, gender, identity, political ideology, opinion and any other potential barriers to their success.
I enjoy the staff at Bethel High School. They have helped me succeed and become who I am today, and I can say the same for my counselors and coaches. The only problem that I have is the administrators. Now, I've never had a disciplinary issue, ever, so I'm not biased. But the administration does not take into account the opinions of the students on some issues. For example, we have an exceedingly loose dress code, yet we cannot wear hats. I understand why we cannot wear hats, but I do not think the dress code should be as loose as it is.
