Buttonwillow Union School District

Huge kudos to our Kinder team that includes @tracietwiford & @crazyinkinder. First day with Chromebooks & they had the students online. Our teachers made K students a special start of the year shirt. @caedpartners @kcsos #1townschoolcommunity @smallschoolda

Thanks to our P3CC team for joining @caedpartners , Dr. Megan Franke and 127 educators (from 11 districts throughout CA) on Friday afternoon. Our team focuses on math alignment in grades Preschool-3. @karen35836549 @crazyinkinder14 Tina Richardson @Msgonzalez_2nd @ClaraYanez2

It is all hands on deck in BW as our instructional aides were given Chromebooks to assist with student intervention. Great to see so many staff interacting on the behalf of all students. @SmallSchoolDA @nrea1 @KcsosStrong @kcsos #1townschoolcommunity

A great start in BW. We have a few kinks to work out, but that's normal. Good things happening in classrooms. Connections with our students are number 1. @mrguzmanbw9 @clintonjparris1 Miss Richardson @middle7miss @caruraled @caedpartners @tonythurmond @kcsos @smallschoolda

It is a mic drop for BW. After 100% of our computers were returned from last year we sanitized & handed out 97.3% of all computers & materials for PS - 8 today. Let's hear it for smalls and rurals and their ability to quickly adapt. @smallschoolda @nrea1@caruraled @ccee @cadepted

It's happening in BW. We are distributing Chromebooks, books & supplies. Staff are seeing their students to hand them their materials. First day schedule starts tomorrow morning on-line. Check your Remind app and book bag today. @smallschoolda #1townschoolcommunity @rudysalasjr

The BW staff returned to campus today in a virtual staff meeting. Roady, our mascot, was joined by his buddies Gumby & Mr. Packard. They reminded everyone we will be flexible when the school year starts Aug. 5. @smallschoolda @nrea1 @caruraled @ACSAREGION_11#townschoolcommunity

Great job BW! Teachers are back on campus in grade levels & evaluating where students are performing. We are focusing on writing & standards in the upcoming school year for stopping the so called COVID Slide. Flexible Gumbys are present. #1townschoolcommunity @smallschoolda

Let's get this thing started. We are off to a great, but unusual first day with our 1st & 2nd year teachers. Everyone got their bendable Gumby to remind us that we are flexible in Buttonwillow. @smallschoolda @nrea1 @caruraled @rural_schools #1townschoolcommunity

BW makes health & safety a priority. We dropped off our student Chromebooks that were returned after usage in the spring & summer school. We partnered with @sts_technology to provide hospital grade disinfecting of computers before the start of school. @smallschoolda @cagovernor

BW is part of the original 9 pilot schools with @KCSOS and @Hoonuit, a national company. This article was a customer spotlight on the Hoonuit webpage. https://hoonuit.com/customer-spotlight-buttonwillow-union-school-district/ #1townschoolcommunity @smallschoolda @caruraled

Computer Return Reminder-Thursday, June 24th and Friday, June 25th are the last days to return Chromebooks, Chargers, Hot Spots, and Textbooks. Students may be charged for items not returned. Also last day to pick-up items left in classroom, anything left will be discarded.

Just a reminder. We need parent surveys completed. All names will be put in a drawing to win 1 of 7 Buttonwillow: One School One Town One Community shirt. Survey available at https://bit.ly/bwschoolopen or by scanning the attached code.

It may be summer but the Special Education Team continues to work together to plan for next year. Looking out for the needs of students is a continued priority. Scheduling, meeting goals, and doing what is in the best interest of students is job 1. #1townschoolcommunity
