About Our School
BULLYING, HARASSMENT, AND SAFETY POLICIES
We put safety as our number one priority. Our building procedures are founded in safety for children from the beginning of the day to the end of the day. We have district and school policies that come to life in our all school training, small group classes and individual work with our counselor. We use Kelso's Choices and Character Strong for our proactive all-student training. These strategies are reinforced through the year and as data indicates for whole grades, individual classes and student to student conflict resolution. All our visual resources mirror these practices and we work intentionally with staff to develop them to the fullest annually.
EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
Our extracurricular activities reflect our commitment to the whole person. At Barnes Butte, we believe that academic and social growth are equally as important. Students across the grades experience learning events both on campus and off. Our core curriculum guides our academic standards and then the staff looks for ways to bring that learning to life. Students can take on leadership roles, they often are out in the field for hands-on learning and every grade attends a variety of trips that gets the students connected to the world around them.
PARENT ENGAGEMENT
Engaging families is central to our work at Barnes Butte Elementary. We want families to feel welcome as they drop off their student in the morning, volunteer at school or trips, attend school sponsored evening events, or join the PTO. Raising a child is a partnership and doing this work to the best of our ability is best done together.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
Connecting with our community is part of our central mission. We believe that the more the community connects with and supports the local educational systems, the more future stewards we are able to shape. Our students benefit from guest speakers, interactive presentations, and various exciting and engaging field trip destinations. Through the year there are family events. We offer support services in both English and Spanish.
