- The mission of Bethany School is to be a community where all members can thrive as learners, growing and developing academically, socially, physically, emotionally, and spiritually; where students experience and learn respect, responsibility, and an appreciation for diversity; and where academic excellence is provided in a Christian environment.
- Our mission statement is the reflection of our clear and continued commitment to these core values: Christian education, academic excellence, diversity, character education, and family commitment.

- The school strives to inspire within each student a love of learning and an appreciation of the arts.
- The program seeks to prepare children for their place in a technological society.
- It attempts to help each youngster cultivate a positive self-concept, be aware of his or her great worth as a child of God, and be capable of making a significant contribution to society.
