The 2025–26 school year officially began yesterday with the arrival of Bethpage’s newest teachers, who were greeted at a welcome breakfast and orientation designed to make them feel at home in the district.
The day began in the courtyard, where Assistant Superintendent Kevin Fullerton and Superintendent David Schneider extended warm greetings before introducing members of the administrative team and department heads. In true Bethpage fashion, the entire leadership team donned district swag to show their pride and unity.
Speakers emphasized what makes Bethpage unique: a place where careers can flourish, where colleagues become lifelong friends and where community feels like family. “We ARE Bethpage” was more than a rallying cry, it was the message woven throughout every introduction.
Following the welcome reception, the new educators embarked on a full day of orientation, learning the ropes and getting a first glimpse of the collaborative culture that defines Bethpage.
On behalf of the entire Bethpage community, we extend our warmest welcome to these teachers as they begin their journey with us.
