After attending SLHS for 4 years, I would say it was alright. At least, it was a whole lot better…read morethan the local Middle School. The teachers were good, they actually enjoyed teaching the students and gave off a positive vibe (99% of them, but I will discuss that later). There were quite a few electives to choose from such as art, woodworking, graphic design, photography, culinary, engineering, and a few gym classes. The only downside I would say is they don't allow students to take an elective more than once unless it has an advanced class. For example, you could take first year culinary and then take second year, but they don't have anything past that and won't allow you to take the class again. I really enjoyed woodworking, but since there wasn't a second year class, I couldn't take a more advanced class. Sometimes the teacher could write it off for you and you would be taught separate from the class, but it was very rare and didn't actually credit you any credits (more or less counted as an open hour). In terms of sports, they did quite well. The coaches were experienced and enthusiastic to coach. The equipment was fairly new if not brand new. The only problem was the school doesn't really have a soccer field, they just practiced in the outfield of the baseball field and set up some old nets. For the more recent years they moved practice to Bethel's stadium, which is around a 15-20 minute drive, so its not as convenient, but it is a nice stadium. Mr. Robak teaches weight training and is also the head football coach and is one of the best coaches anyone could ever have. Mr. Dewitt is also one of the Advanced Algebra teachers at the school and coaches the golf team, he has also done a great job at teaching the players and overall has a very positive attitude. For the negatives; There are often fights at the school, a lot of them. Students are punished quite harshly, but I didn't get involved so I don't have much experience in it. The few encounters I did have with bullying, were dealt with quickly and reasonably. The principles and security are often swift to resolve the conflict and genuinely care about the students safety. I know there are some students that would say otherwise, but that is what I've experienced. There are some teachers there that really don't care for the students. I can only think of 1, but I won't name them out of respect. They grade very harsh and then pride themselves for failing the students. When I contacted a counselor to get transferred out of the class, I was told there were no other openings in other classes and I had to finish the year. This teacher in particular spent more time talking about his fishing pole collection than he did teaching, no clue how he is still teaching there. Many students have also experienced this and felt the same way. Many of the teachers were also transferred or retired while I was going there. A few science, math, and history teachers and were really nice ended up (mostly retiring) leaving the district. Not because they disliked the school, but some had to move to have shorter commutes, take care of family matters, or switched because not enough students were taking the class to fill the teachers contract. But there were many good teachers that still teach there, so I wouldn't really consider it a negative. But overall, it was fairly good school and i'm glad I attended there.

My experience with Bethel School District has been deeply disappointing. My child has fallen two…read moregrade levels behind, and getting real support has been a constant struggle. This district has shown clear bias, and the treatment of BIPOC children is unacceptable. The environment does not feel safe, supportive, or equitable for all students. Graham Elementary and the BVA program were especially concerning. Communication is poor, accountability is low, and the Superintendent's leadership has not improved anything. If you have a BIPOC child, please look elsewhere. This district has been one of the worst experiences we've had, and I would not recommend Bethel School District to any family wanting fairness, progress, and real educational support.

There are numerous schools in this district. My son has…read moreattended two of those-here are my reviews for each: Evergreen Elementary School on Fort Lewis- 1 star the teachers obviously did not want to be there-or should have been teaching different grades. the principal was more concerned with following steps then actual problem solving. I pulled my child out of this school because of these issues and moved him to a school that I had to drive 20 mins 2x a day for drop off/pick-up. Lakeview Hope Academy- 5 stars! Loved, loved this school. This is a truly wonderful elementary school. The teachers and staff are all very dedicated to each student and will go beyond what is expected. I transferred my child here in Kindergarten after the horrible experience at another school. His K and 1st grade teachers were very helpful with the transition, and everyone worked to get him the support he needed. Unfortunately, We had to move out of state after 1st grade. Starting 2nd grade in a new state was hard for my child-we contacted his 1st grade teacher for tips, and during her summer break she not only sent helpful emails to me and his new teacher but also followed up with phone calls. It was very obvious that she cared about my child and getting him off to a great start. The front desk staff were always friendly and very helpful. ESL staff is also wonderful. This school is in a poorer neighborhood and that is obvious during pick-up time. However, it also means that they have great state funding. To me, the teachers and staff obviously wanted to be there and wanted to make a difference. It was worth the 20 min drive 2x a day for me to know that my son was in a loving environment.

After he was hurt he "threatened the…read moreteacher" by saying "do that shit again ima beat your ass" (I'm being 100% transparent here) now he's being suspended. The teacher slammed a door on his entire forearm and the school is lying saying that the door only bumped his elbow. MIND YOU THERE IS VIDEO FOOTAGE. I headed down to the school and confronted everyone. I told them I'd be taking it to the superintendent and if necessary the news station. I told them that someone needs to apologize to him for hurting him. That if the teacher (Mr. Gwenzy) doesn't apologize then the dean of students / principle (Mr. Fiteny ) should because THATS YOUR EMPLOYEE WHO FUCKED UP. You don't hurt children. You sure as hell don't act a whole ass because you don't want to apologize when you're in the wrong. That being said to this day no one has apologized. I went to the ER and they looked at his arm. They said his arm was swollen and they said he had a contusion and it will be sore for 2-3 weeks. I already made a request for the video footage. I made a police report as well and I plan on pressing charges. This all could have been avoided if Mr. Gwenzy or Mr. Fiteny apologized for the way they handled the situation. Regardless if now they're saying it was an accident, they should have done the adult thing and apologize. Completely disappointed in Clover Park High School.

She grab her walkie talkie screaming for help to remove a hostile parent screaming in the walkie talkie there are kids present... the same kids who was there when she assaulted me. The assistant principal Ms. Ryle stuck her head out from in her office and when back in while her staff was assaulting a vet who came to school about her son getting bullied. This is by far the worst school I ever experienced. My son been to f different schools across the world and when he started at this one he wanted to leave. Some of the staff and teachers only care about getting a pay chk! My advice is to get a recording app on your child phone so you can listen to everything that's happening in the school!!!!!!!!!!

If a kid is dealing with something they don't do anything about it except tell their parents because they clearly don't want to deal with it.

The principle is so stuck up and self centered, and the school district's way of doing things is horrid. They don't make good decisions. I'm sorry for everyone that goes here.
