📚 Keep the reading going all summer long!
Consistency is key! Whether it's morning reading or before bed, 20 minutes of independent practice keeps those literacy skills sharp for the fall! Students in Grades K-8 can log reading minutes in Beanstack to help their campus in Plano ISD’s summer reading competition!

Bethany Bunch, you brought the energy, the smiles, and the joy all the way to the very last day.
To our students: enjoy every popsicle, pool day, late morning, good book, family adventure, and moment of fun. You earned it!
To our families: thank you for sharing your amazing kids with us this year. We hope your summer is full of rest, laughter, and memories that last.
Have a wonderful summer, Bethany Bunch! 💙 We’ll be ready to welcome you back before you know it! Plano Independent School District
Today, our 5th graders sang the Bethany school song one final time as elementary students:
“We are Bethany Elementary,
Friends and family,
One community…”
And in that moment, those words felt especially true. These students have grown up within these walls. They have learned, laughed, led, wondered, worked hard, made memories, and become part of the heart of our Bethany Bunch.
To our 5th graders: we are so proud of you. As you take your next steps into middle school, we hope you carry a piece of Bethany with you- the friendships, the lessons, the confidence, and the reminder that you will always be part of this community.
Congratulations, 5th grade. We can’t wait to see all the places you’ll go!💙 Plano Independent School District

What a way to end the year! 🎉 This morning, our Bethany Bunch came together for one final assembly to celebrate an amazing school year filled with learning, laughter, growth, friendship, and so many special memories.
From big smiles to joyful cheers, it was the perfect way to wrap up the year and send our students into summer feeling celebrated and loved. We are so proud of all our students have accomplished this year and so grateful for the teachers, staff, families, and volunteers who helped make it all possible.
Happy last day of school, Bethany Bunch! We hope your summer is full of rest, fun, sunshine, and adventure. ☀️💙 Plano Independent School District

Coach Schmidt, Ms. Mullins, and Ms. Perich have each made a lasting impact on the students, staff, and families of Bethany through their dedication, kindness, patience, and countless years of service. Their influence reaches far beyond lessons taught or days worked; they helped shape the heart of our school community.
From encouraging students, supporting coworkers, creating meaningful connections, and showing up every single day with care and commitment, their presence will truly be missed.
Thank you for the difference you made in the lives of so many. We are grateful for the legacy you leave behind and the memories created along the way! Wishing each of you endless joy, relaxation, new adventures, and all the happiness retirement brings. Congratulations on this incredible milestone! 🎉
