Welcome Spring & Our 2025-2026 PTA Board Members!

Dear Bethany Families,

Spring is in the air, and we’re excited for all that’s ahead at Bethany Elementary!

We’re happy to share that the 2025-2026 Bethany Elementary PTA Board elections took place on February 19. We warmly welcome both new and returning Board members and appreciate their dedication to our school community. There are still several open Board positions, so if you’re interested in getting involved, we’d love to have you! Please reach out to me at president@bethanypta.org to learn more.

We also encourage all families to find ways to volunteer - whether it’s a little or a lot, every bit of support makes a difference for our students and teachers. Let’s continue working together to make Bethany Elementary an amazing place!

Stay connected with PTA news by following Bethany PTA on social media and subscribing to our newsletter for updates on events, volunteer opportunities, and ways to get involved.

Warm regards,
Anu Shekar
President, Bethany Elementary PTA

Help Stock the PTA Snack Cart

Each month, we’ve had the pleasure of showing our appreciation to the amazing teachers and staff at Bethany through our snack cart. It’s a small way to thank them for their hard work and dedication.

Right now, our snack supply is running low, and we need your help to keep this tradition going! We are accepting donations of:

Chips
Candy
Soda
Breakfast bars
Cookies

Donations can be dropped off at the front office at any time—just let them know they’re for the PTA Snack Cart.

Thank you for your support in helping us show our gratitude to the incredible Bethany staff!
