Logan Kelley, alongside his father and some student volunteers helped scrape the dugouts getting them ready to paint!  This was part of Logan's CSL project. Thank you to all that helped out on this wonderful community service learning project!

Grades K-4 worked on this collaborative project. We first studied the artist Dale Chihuly, whose medium is glass. We spent a couple of months collecting plastic drinking bottles. Students in grades K-2 peeled labels and then painted and cut the bottles into simple forms. Students in grades 3 and 4 cut more complex forms and assembled the bottles into their final configuration.

Jordan Romero, the youngest person to climb the seven summits, visited Barre Town Middle Schoolers on Friday, May 3rd. Jordan climbed Mt. Everest when he was 13, and finished his 7th summit at the age of 15.

"Congratulations to our Barre Town students for participating in the Vermont Statewide Mathematics Fair on Saturday, April 6. Grady, Grace, and AJ took home Honorable Mention for their project on whether we can save money by feeding food scraps from the cafeteria to our chickens."

On Friday, March 29 the BTMES 7th and 8th grade drama club presented Disney's Aladdin Kids! The audience was able to fly about to a whole new world with themes of tradition, storytelling, love, and music by our incredibly talented students. 

Congrats to BTMES 8th grader, Grace who participated in the state Geo Bee in Bennington, Vermont. She missed advancing onto the next round by one point but represented Barre Town very well!  

On Friday, March 22 Mrs. Robertson's Fourth Grade class had a "Future Career Day". The students dressed for the job they want in their future! 

Mrs. VanOrman's 6th grade class and Mrs. LaPerle's afternoon class read stories to their preschool buddies and created book reviews. These reviews will be posted at Next Chapter Bookstore soon!

An opening reception was held on February 19th. The show will remain on display through March 29th at the Aldrich Public Library, Milne Room.
