We are so excited to see students making such good choices that they receive a brag note. From the brag note it is delivered to the principal and read over announcements in the morning. Next, their names are put on the brag board and when the board is full, winners are randomly selected.

The top 3 winners receive a token, wristband and a book. Our top 3 winners are:

1st Brighton Derfler

2nd Ismael Soto-Mendoza

3rd Purity Johnson

We were very excited to welcome our district superintendent Rick Nielsen to Barnett Elementary today. He took time to walk through each classroom and see teachers and students learning together. He visited our Steps reading groups and saw our incredible Steps teachers working with small groups in reading. Thank you Mr. Nielsen for taking the time to see the great things happening at Barnett!

We are excited to have another Family Empowerment Event to help support parents and families with resiliency this year. Parents have expressed a desire to have this subject supported at school. Teachers are studying the book "Growth Mindset Coach" and providing lessons to their classes monthly. To focus on our theme of "Together We Are Better", we are hosting this Family Empowerment Event to bring some of what students are learning at school back into our homes so together our students will become the best they can be.
