Bethany was a K-12 school from its inception. After the town of Bethany Heights was annexed by Lincoln in 1926, Bethany School continued in the K-12 configuration until 1941 when the high school portion was discontinued due to the opening of Northeast High School.

The grade school continued until 1981 when it was closed due to a declining school population.

The school was named for its location in the town of Bethany Heights.
