The Bethel Saturday School Academy is truly serving it’s purpose in reaching out to struggling children and youth in Metro Atlanta.  With the number of students enrolling each week, we have been forced to seek more space  in our efforts to helping students to achieve their fullest potential academically, socially, physically, emotionally, and culturally.  With the expansion to the Butler Street CDC (Community Development Center) a new partnership has been birthed to accommodate the influx of activity.  Also, our new partnership with Georgia State University Office of Civic Affairs has made it possible for our large group to be broken out into smaller groups and even more “one-on”one’s in order to be more effective.
