Ms. Burgoyne (Shobe) has been sending out the newsletter in many more ways - to make sure people can access it. We are curious though, do you like getting it as a text directly to your phone? It also comes as an email to parents, and anyone registered in Student/ParentVue can view it there as well. Vote below!

Your child may be entitled to participate in the Bethel School District Native American Education Program. For each child who is registered on a 506 Eligibility Certification Form, the district receives Federal Title VI funds to pay for academic assistance for Native American children. In order to be counted as part of this program, a 506 form must be filled out by a parent/guardian of the Native American child. When filling out the form, all parts must be completed. It is not required that a student be enrolled in a tribe if the parents or grandparents are registered.

This 506 Form needs to be filled out only one time as long as your child attends Bethel schools. We will keep all information confidential.

Forms are available via the link below, on the Title VI website, or by calling Rachael Barger at 253-800-2394 or Grace Leatham at 253-800-2393.
