March is here!!!Spring is finally around the corner and along with it will come the warm weather. This is a busy month at Bethesda Country Day School. We will hold our traditional Pennies for Patients Fundraising. This is a great opportunity to teach our children the importance of helping other children that are not feeling so well. Through out these three weeks, children, teachers and parents will work together to raise the funds needed.

Time is flying and summer will be here in no time…Don’t let your child miss the opportunity to “Connect” with his old and new friends in an adventure of fun. Reserve your child’s spot NOW…We look forward for a Summer of Fun!!!
