Bethel School District No. 403 is a public school district in Pierce County, Washington, USA and serves 200 square miles (520 km2) of unincorporated Pierce County including Spanaway, Graham, Kapowsin and the city of Roy. Bethel was unique in the way that its high schools served grades 10-12 as opposed to the traditional grades of 9-12 of many other districts. In September 2011, Bethel School District planned to switch to a traditional 9-12 district, which occurred in the 2012-2013 school year.[2]
