Barrett Buddies are Respectful, Responsible, Safe and Kind!
What's New?
Dear Barrett Russell Families,
🌅 RISE & SHINE! 🌅
At Barrett Russell, we believe every child has something special to share. Each morning is a new opportunity for our students to rise with confidence, curiosity, and kindness—and to shine by being the amazing individuals they are!
Throughout the year, we will encourage our youngest learners to:
☀️ Rise to new challenges
✨ Shine by trying their best
❤️ Be Respectful
🌟 Be Responsible
🛡️ Be Safe
🌈 Be Kind
Pre-K is the beginning of an exciting educational journey, and we are honored to take these important first steps alongside your children. Together, our families, teachers, paraprofessionals, and staff will create a joyful and supportive school community where every child can RISE, SHINE, and GROW!
Let’s Rise & Shine, Barrett Russell! ☀️✨
With excitement,
Miss Marybeth
Principal
Barrett Russell Early Childhood Center

Boosterthon Fundraiser!
WOW! We are at 89% completion of meeting our goal of raising $5,000 to replace our playground equipment! Please continue to share our Boosterthon fundraiser with your family and friends. Prizes will be given out to the top selling class, individual students and teacher! You can also send in cash or check donations, and Miss Marybeth will add those to our online system. Please continue to share our fundraiser! We hope to reach our goal of $5,000 (maybe even beyond) and are so close! The fundraiser ends on THURSDAY!
Harvest Parade
Our annual Harvest Parade is on Friday, October 30th. Families are welcome to join us on that day to watch classrooms parade outside in their costumes. Please do not send students in with masks or anything that fully covers their face (preschool appropriate costumes only). If it rains that day, the parade will be held indoors for school staff only due to limited space. Thank you!
