The students sat on the blacktop, anxiously awaiting the arrival of a helicopter at their school. Never before had a helicopter landed on the back soccer field of Barnett Elementary. They could hear the sounds of a helicopter, which only built their anticipation. When they finally saw the helicopter come around school building, many leaped out of their seats in excitement! A helicopter landing at Barnett: a memory that will stay with them their entire life!

Barnett held their Spelling Bee on Friday for grades 3-6 and it was a great event! Two finalists from every class participated in the school contest which went for many rounds with such successful spellers. In the end we want to congratulate all our super spellers and a special congratulations to our top 3 winners.

1st place- Henry Draper, 2nd place- Makayla Cook, and 3rd place- Xavier Mitchell
