ALL BARRY FAMILIES
Character Strong - Family Dares
I hope you all had a chance to participate in last week's family dare: Their Thing.
Please consider joining us in this week's family dare: No Tech Table Time. We are bringing this family dare back for two reasons: 1) We got great feedback from students and parents back in the fall when we first participated; and 2) It will be our first week back with all Barry students in-person all week. We thought it would be a great time to ensure that our families are intentionally connecting with one another at dinner as this may very well be the least amount of time families have spent together since this time last year in 2020 when the pandemic began!
Character Strong Student Recognition
The following students selected were:
STUCO Staff Members of the Month
March PTSA Meeting

We have some wonderful options for you! The Barry PTSA will be electing new officers for the 2021-22 school year in the month of March, so we are in need of interested volunteers to serve in those roles.

PHOTOS NEEDED FOR 2020-21 YEARBOOK! (Repeat)
This year's Barry School Yearbook is going to be a huge challenge to create. Because Barry students are divided between a hybrid mode of instruction and a totally virtual setting, we have very few student pictures, and almost no pictures of students from the virtual classrooms.
We need your help, Barry families! If you have pictures of your Barry kids learning, smiling, or just doing their homework, please share! It doesn't matter if the pictures are inside or outside, posed or candid. They can even be school sports/activities pictures (like football, archery, step team, etc.) We will take whatever you have and try to use as many as we can. Please send pictures by February 15th to Michelle Delaney at delaneym@platteco.k12.mo.us. If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Delaney using the same email.
Academic Lab (Repeat)
Academic Lab is on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2:50-4:00 p.m. An activity bus is available. If you are interested in learning more you can contact the school administration, counselor or child's classroom/homeroom teacher.
