Drive For Education Supports Bethel Schools
Kendall's Amy Newport and Shanley Skillern present a check to Bethel Superintendent Colt Gill and 4j's Shelley Berman.
A new partnership with Kendall Toyota will bring thousands of dollars to Bethel schools.
The Drive For Education will provide $4,000 to Bethel School District each month during the school year. That money will be used to help update computers and other classroom technology.
In addition, each Bethel school will be competing with Eugene 4j schools to earn up to $3,000 quarterly by the number of points they earn through Kendall Toyota. Points are awarded by visiting the dealership, Liking Kendall Toyota on Facebook, test driving a car, or for money spent at Kendall Toyota on sales or service.

Providing A Link To Support Services
Students with disabilities and their families connected with support services at Bethel's Transition Information Fair.
It was one-stop shopping for students with developmental disabilities as they plan their transition out of high school and into the community.
More than 75 students and their families from throughout the county turned out at Willamette High School for the Transition Information Fair, a chance to connect with dozens of local agencies that provide support services.
Organizations such as the Pearl Buck Center, ARC of Lane County, Looking Glass, Women’s Space and Senior Disabled Services were on hand to explain how they can help.
Bethel School District partnered with the Transition Linkage Coalition for the event, looking to provide every support possible for students as they plan a successful journey beyond high school.
