Becoming "Stuck" on Reading

Submitted by beth.knudsen on

The responsible students who turned in their reading calendar for October were privileged to take part in a taping event.  Mrs. Angela Stoddard and Mr. Austin Cope became stuck to the wall as each child who had turned in a calendar was given a piece of duct tape to tape to those two.  Since this was a slightly laborious task, the students who waited all brought books and most students read throughout the waiting period.

Annual Gobble Off

Submitted by beth.knudsen on

Every year students get to compete for the best turkey gobble in the school.  To prepare, each class did a competition to decide on a winner from each class. Then each of those winners got to compete with the rest of the student winners in the school.  The judges for this year's Gobble Off were Mr. Don Applegate and Mrs. Shalynn Murdoch.  After narrowing down the 20 or so candidates to five gobblers, Justin Reynaud from Ms. Robyn Curtis's class won the all-school Gobble Off!  Justin won a turkey to take home; the other contestants took home a large candy bar.

Parents & Pastries

Submitted by beth.knudsen on

The second to last week in November was an exciting week! Not only did SEPs take place that week and a week-long book fair, but Tuesday was the day of Parents and Pastries! The halls of the school echoed with the noise of parents and students eating their donuts, buying books, and reading in the hallway.  It is a wonderful tradition that we're grateful we were able to continue this year thanks to the PTA!

Principal's 200 Club for November

Submitted by angela.stoddard on

Students at Barnett Elementary have been working hard to earn Brag Notes. When a student earns a brag note their name is added to the Principal’s 200 Club Board. Brag notes can be earned by making good choices, working hard in school, and being a good friend or helper just to name a few things. Once the board is full of student names we have a drawing for books and prizes. Here are the students who won for November.  Thanks for making so many good choices Barnett Bulldogs!
