On April 28, 2014, the Barnett Choir sang some of the songs from their Spring Concert. Their songs were focused around popular songs from the radio or from movies, for example, "When Will My Life Begin" from Tangled, "Roar" by Prism, "That's How You Know" from Enchanted, "What Does the Fox Say?", and "Let it Go" from Frozen.  They did a fantastic job singing and being led by their choir director, Mrs. Christine Muniz.

Students in both the upper and lower grades were able to participate in Minute to Win It games as a reward for turning in their reading calendars. Several students who had turned in their reading calendar were randomly selected from each class and grade to take part in the fun games.  A teacher was also randomly selected to compete against the students.  Some of the fun games that were played involved knocking bottles down with a pantyhose headcovering, making cup pyramids and taking them down quickest, and trying to get an Oreo from the forehead into the mouth.

On the field trip to Thanksgiving Point for the Tulip Festival, the third graders had a lot of fun! The first thing we saw were waterfalls. We walked and walked and walked until we saw a secret garden. There were a lot of flowers (and a lot of walking!). The secret garden and Italian gardens were favorites. Students were also able to feed fish and some geese--some even saw geese nesting! Seth Hancock said, "My favorite part was the waterfalls and I loved the big hill!" Jared Peterson remarked, "My favorite garden was the Italian garden.
