Students at Barnett Elementary have been working hard this month 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 some of our winners from today! Thanks for making so many good choices Barnett Bulldogs!

It was the first day of Christmas Spirit Week at Barnett today. We loved seeing all the awesome Christmas sweaters! Tomorrow is Dress Like a Christmas Character. Who are you coming as?

Barnett Elementary would like to thank America First Credit Union for purchasing 100 pairs of shoes for students at Barnett. It was a great day when the recipients of the shoes all gathered together and opened their presents at the same time to discover a brand new pair of awesome shoes! Thank you again to America First Credit Union for taking care of our students!

Mrs. Standish's 5th grade class tutor Mrs. Lloyd's 2nd grade class weekly. Today, the 5th graders taught the 2nd graders how to draw a snowman that appeared in motion. Everyone had a blast! 

This year Barnett started an after school Robotics Class through a UVU School of Education Outreach Program. Each week 5th and 6th graders work with college students on how to code and program robots. The students had a great time using skills in Math, Science, and Technology. The Fall class just wrapped up and parents were invited to the last class to see what their children had learned. A new class will begin for 4th,5th, and 6th graders in January.

Barnett 5th graders had the opportunity to visit the local Veteran's home on Friday, November 20th, 2015. Students practiced for weeks to learn the songs and even made the cards to give to the Veteran's. Many students were overwhelmed with emotion as they had the opportunity to meet and talk with these brave men and women.
