Barryton Elementary

REMINDER: No school on Friday, August 30 and Monday, September 2. Have a great Labor Day weekend, Warriors!

BUSSING UPDATE: Trees and power lines are down throughout the area. Please be patient as our busses are running behind!

COMING MONDAY: Say "hello" to parent-teacher chat and classroom announcements in the CHSD Warriors app with a new feature called Rooms! Now it's easier than ever to stay up-to-date with the district, schools, AND with your student's teachers and classes. On Monday, parents and guardians will receive a personalized invitation via text and email to create their login access to Rooms within the CHSD app. If you haven't done so already, be sure to download the CHSD Warriors app to your phone. It's free in the Google Play and Apple App Store.

Power is back on in Barryton! Students were just loading the busses, so they are heading back inside now. Happy 2nd day of school and thank for bearing with us as we navigate the unexpected!

Due to a widespread power outage, Barryton Elementary is currently without power. All students are being transported by bus to the High School Auditorium for the remainder of the school day. At the end of the day, students will be transported by bus back to Barryton Elementary where they will be dismissed at 3:15 PM with their usual dismissal procedures. Unfortunately, there is not enough time to safely transport all the Barryton students home before the busses will be needed for dismissal at all the other buildings. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Warrior Pride Days are back again this year! Show your school spirit by wearing your Warriors gear or school colors every Friday! Let’s make the whole district a sea of red and blue tomorrow! #warriorpridedays

Ms. Boochard's and Ms. McCallister's classes spent time this week being Pokémon scientists. They measured Pokémon and wrote about if they were a pokemon. They did this all while taking the "precautions" needed when touching fire and poison pokemon.
