This Week
TUESDAY is the LAST DAY to Order a Blue Ribbon T-shirt!

Help turn Mt. Bethel Blue on November 18th as we celebrate our 2016 National Blue Ribbon School Award.  Dignitaries from the state and district will be in attendance as will news crews and photographers.  We want to show them all that we are the best school by ALL wearing our Blue Ribbon Buccaneer T-shirts!

We are offering a Special Edition Blue Ribbon Shirt at a discounted price in order to accomplish this goal.  We have negotiated a very low rate, and PTA will subsidize a portion of the cost to see as many students wearing the special edition shirt on  Spirit Day as possible.

Click Here to Order! Deadline: THIS Tuesday!
