Winter News

Things are looking festive around the Barnes Early Childhood Center and 'Jingle Bells' can be heard throughout the halls as children sing with excitement. On Friday December 18th, families will come together for the Annual Barnes Holiday Gathering featuring music from North High School's Jazz Band, pictures with Santa, and a pancake breakfast! It is always a great time to celebrate the season with our school family.

Our programs at Barnes, and Trombly will be closed for Winter Break beginning on December 21, 2015. We will re-open on January 4, 2016. We look forward to seeing everyone again in the new year!

Kid's Talk

This morning, Pre-K children had their last session of Kid's Talk. Over the past 12 weeks, Ms. Rebecca from the Children's Advocacy Center has been meeting with our Pre-K children to talk about important safety topics. Each Kid's Talk session is about 10-15 minutes in length and includes time for children to ask questions.

Over the course of the program, children learned about fire safety, gun safety, and body safety. They learned an important body safety rule- "No. Go. Tell." We are proud of all of the important information the children have retained over these past few weeks. 

We are grateful to Ms. Rebecca for providing such an empowering learning experience for our children!
