Bethany Community School is an incredible place for students in grades 6-12. The sense of community here is unmatched—everyone is supportive, welcoming, and truly cares about each other and the students. The teachers are dedicated, and the environment feels like a second home. I love being part of a school where students are encouraged to grow academically and personally. It's more than just a school; it's a family!

Soooo glad we gave Bethany a chance. Don't let the test grades stop you from giving this school a shot. We came from another well respected charter school for high school and are blown away with the amazing caliber of teachers, kind students, small class sizes and just all around great school. My child could not be happier.

Finding a quality middle or high public school is difficult but this is the best one out there. BCS has smaller classes and individualized help when needed. This school is now grades 6-12.

The best public school in the area. Small class size, a growing sports program, and a new facility. The school has grown to grades 6-12.

Outstanding! This is absolutely the best school I have ever seen for not only students, but also for teachers and staff.

The teachers have a really good outlook on their purpose at BCS. Overall, my children have had great experiences, both learning accedemically and personally. Love the smaller numbers of students in classrooms.

This is where my daughter learned not to trust any adult ... not even her family. She was bullied. She reported it to the teachers. She reported it to the principal. Nothing was done. Some girls cornered her in the bathroom and threatened to gang up and kill her. When she reported this, the girls gave a complete different story and nothing was done about it. She feared that we wouldn't believe her and didn't tell us about it for a long time. If she had told us about it, we would've immediately brought charges against the girls, the teachers, and the administrators. This school needs to be locked up and never open their doors again.

My son went to this school and teachers yelled at him, kids tormented him, and no adult tried to stop it. The school is old and gross, 100% unsatisfactory.

The teachers here strive to meet the inividual needs of each child. Here character is something that students and teachers look at. The principal is also very proactive and kind. I am in 8th grade and the work is not to hard, but not too easy either. The teachers aren't just here for the money, they are here to see the smiles on the childrens faces to keep them motivated each day. :-)
