Last Friday morning Barnard students celebrated Dr. Seuss' birthday by dressing up as their favorite Dr. Seuss book characters. We had several Thing 1 and Thing 2's on campus as well as many others. Parents came for Family Friday and read with students in their classrooms. Principal Hernandez was even able to get into some of the classrooms to read to the kids.
This Friday, March 4, is Family Friday!! We will be celebrating Dr. Seuss' birthday by having students come dressed in their favorite Dr. Seuss book character. Classrooms might even get a visit from the Cat in the Hat and a couple of his favorite things.
Many of you have heard or been asked by parents about the Morgan Hill Case, a lawsuit against the CDE. Please click on "Confidential Student Information" for more information.
