First grade had a blast today on our field trip. First we went to the BYU Bean Museum. We got to walk around and see all kinds of animals! We also had an exciting presentation where we classified animals and saw some live animals! Then we spent some time at the "All Together" park in Orem. It was an exciting day!
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!

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

Haley Bingham and Rebekah Hartman have had perfect attendance for all three Terms. They have been to school on time every day this school year! Congratulations to these awesome attendance leaders!
Barnett held their First Annual Leadership Day today and it was a grand success! Our school has been learning all about the 7 Habits of Happy Kids and what it means to be a leader this school year as we became a Leader in Me School. Students have been using the habits at school and home all school year and today was their chance to invite the community into the school and show off their leadership skills. Students played musical instruments, cheered, greeted, danced, sang, and spoke about the 7 Habits.
