Principal's Corner
Bartley Elementary 8/9/19
Hello Bartley Families!
My name is TJ Quick and I will be the new Principal at Bartley Elementary this school year. I have been the Physical Education teacher at Bartley for the past nine years and I am so excited to move into this new role!
I want to share with you some values that are important to me as an educator. One of the most important things to me is family. I want Bartley Elementary to become part of your family. We believe that every staff member is important and has an integral role in your child’s life. The students at Bartley are not just the students in one teacher's classrooms, they are all OUR students! Our motto is that, “We are ONE!” Everybody in our building is working together to create a family atmosphere and we work to do what is best for your child. The next value that is important to me and to Bartley is that we will do whatever it takes to get students where they need to be. Children come to us from all different paths of life, and we want to meet them where they are and get them to where they need to be. This means that we will continue to do what is best for students everyday, no matter what. We will fail at times, but we will keep trying until we get it right. As with any new position, there comes a learning curve so I ask that you be patient with me and the front office staff as I navigate through this new Principal role. If you have any questions or concerns, we invite you to call our office so we can help solve the problem together.
One of the most important things as a parent you can do right now to ensure a smooth start to the school year is to is enroll your child online through the Parent Portal. We need to have all information filed before we can place your child in a classroom. If you have any information that is missing or not filled out the process is incomplete and we will be unable to place your child in a class.
I am so excited to start this new school year with you as the new Bartley Principal and I know that this is going to be an AMAZING year!
Important Dates This Month:
Aug. 16th - Class lists will be posted on the front door at 4pm
Aug. 19th - Open house 2-6pm
Aug. 21st - FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!!!Car Drop off and pickup:
Morning Car Drop Off :
Afternoon Car Pick Up:
Our car rider bell rings at 3:25 pm. At this time any student who is being picked up by a car will head out to the front drive. We have two spots for these pickups. If your child is in grades K-2nd grade they will be picked up by the front doors or the main entrance into Bartley. If your child is in grades 3rd-5th or if they have a sibling who is in grades 3rd-5th they will be picked up at the first door in our front drive.
Parents will need to wait in their cars for their child to be walked to their car by one of our staff members. We ask that you do not get out of your car. This will stop the flow of our traffic because you are unable to move your car. One of our staff members will walk your child to you to make sure they get in your car. Once you have your child in your car, we ask that you be patient. PLEASE DO NOT DRIVE THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF OUR FRONT DRIVE. This is a major safety concern as we have staff member escorting students to their cars. If you want to wait at the door for your child, you will need to park in the parking lot and walk to the door your child will be.
Bell Schedule:
7:55 am - Front Doors Open
8:10 am - Tardy Bell
11:10 - 12:30 pm - Lunch (by grade level)
