We are pleased to announce that BW School has entered into an agreement with the School of Education at Northwestern University. For the next 2.5 years our Preschool-3rd grade teachers will be involved in research surrounding the coherence of math instruction in our PS-3 classes.

When things happen @adminmom & @stuartpackard fill needs.Today they made salads. Things learned: the Superintendent makes a huge mess with lettuce. The Asst. Superintendent can identify a bad cherry tomato, & it is not easy to pull two lunch wagons.#1townschoolcommunity @isabelv4




Luz assisted Mr. Packard in introducing @casas_jimmy to the @SSDA Statewide Virtual Conference. Small and rural schools heard a great message. @julieboesch @caedpartners @nrea1@timtaylor

@adminmom & @stuartpackard were out checking connectivity for new @tmobile hot spots. When you're in a rural school you sometimes end up in an almond orchard with pollinating bees & blooming trees, while visiting homes @nrea1 @smallschoolda @ruraledtech @caruraled @acsaregion_11


Another wonderful story from Channel 23 was shown and highlighted Mr. Parrish from our Special Education Department. Mr. Parrish and two students shared what is great about being back in school.

Thank you Channel 23 for showing that Buttonwillow School has had its doors open to students since October. Many of our neighboring districts as well as small and rural schools throughout the state have been open since August. http://bit.ly/BWSchoolOpen @smallschoolda @nrea1

Wonderful to see preschool students working outside with letters and writing their names in chalk. #1townschoolcommunity


We decided that the start of the third quarter is a great time to give every student who is on campus a BW Runners mask. #1townschoolcommunity @smallschoolda


Our students are on campus, PS-8. MOT staff delivered water bottles to the classrooms. 50% of students on campus based on parent choice. @smallschoolda @caedpartners @nrea1 @CAgovernor @caruraled @timssda @potus @rudysalasjr @repdavidvaladao @senator_hurtado





Buttonwillow remains open the 3rd quarter with students on campus as they have since October. PS-8 four days per week with transportation provided. Great job BW staff, families, and school board. @rudysalasjr @bakersfieldcali @kgetnews @bakersfieldnow @23abcnews @smallschoolda


Mientras nos preparamos para comenzar el tercer trimestre, nuevamente les estamos dando a los padres la oportunidad de seleccionar si sus estudiantes participarán en el campus o en línea. (Esta opción es solo para estudiantes de TK-8vo grado. Los estudiantes con Sr. Parrish, Sra. Maldonado / Sra. Robinson y Preescolar permanecerán en su horario actual). Cualquier familia que no complete esta encuesta antes del viernes 15 de enero a las 5:00 pm permanecerá en el programa de educación a distancia hasta el 26 de marzo.

Our first group of preschool students arrived on campus today. Safety was the number one priority. #1townschoolcommunity @smallschoolda @kcsos @nrea1 @rudysalasjr @senator_hurtado





Lookout the 3 & 4 year olds are back. Starting Monday our preschoolers start on campus for the first time. The parents have been notified of start & end times as well as about food service. These classes will only have 8 students at most. #1townschoolcommunity @caedpartners


@Teach_Turpin_24 and @teachlopez123 along with BW students model the long sleeve T-Shirts that students who participated earned in our On-Line Winter Session. Thank you to @caedpartners for working with us to accelerate learning during unique times. @LuisEArgueta1 @AdmmomH
