Thank You Teachers!

Thank you to our very special Barron Teachers who do so much for our Pioneers everyday! Your dedication to our students is invaluable. We celebrate you and your hard work this week!


Make sure to thank a teacher this week! ❤️

REGISTRATION! 86% to our 100% Goal!

Dear Parents,

We want to thank you for your dedication and support you have given the campus during registration season.

Registering your student before the end of the school year ensures we can do all the work while your pioneer is gone to ensure that the school is ready for them next year!

This includes choosing the right teacher and class placement, making sure we coordinate lunch tables, prepare documents, etc.


Registration is power to the parent and school staff to help make school the best it can be before the year starts!


We are almost 100% registered for the 26' - 27 ' school year! If you haven't registered yet we do encourage you to do so before May ends. We have extended rewards such as plushie pets for registration and hope that we can get one to your child before the school year ends!


Need help? Reach out to us or stop by in person to get personalized help during the process of registration. Thank you for your dedication to your Pioneers and Barron Elementary.

Dear Barron Families,


As we begin the month of May, we are excited to finish the school year strong with just 24 days remaining! Our top priority continues to be the safety and well-being of our students, ensuring a safe learning environment where every Pioneer continues to thrive.


This week, we proudly celebrate our teachers—our everyday heroes who make learning happen all day, every day. Their dedication, passion, and commitment truly make a difference for every student.


We have many exciting events planned throughout the month, including:


  • Teacher Appreciation Week celebrations

  • Award assemblies for all grade levels coming June.

  • STREAM Night / GT Expo and Music Night, where students will showcase their final projects

  • And special end-of-year events, including celebrating our 5th graders as they complete their final year of elementary school


We also want to celebrate and recognize the incredible accomplishments of our students:

  • Congratulations to our CRC students who participated in the UNIDOS Games—they showed enthusiasm, determination, and Pioneer pride!


  • A big congratulations to our Science Fair finalists:

    • Mila Lopez and Kayla Durner – 1st Place

    • Leonardo Pimental-Rodriguez – 3rd Place


Thank you to Ms. Payan for sponsoring our Science Fair and to all teachers who supported our students’ success.


We also extend our appreciation for the meaningful events during Military Month, led by Ms. Chavez with the support of Ms. Berry. Our military families and students make incredible sacrifices, and we are honored to celebrate them.


Thank you, Barron Families, for your strong support with student registration. We are currently at 86.8%, and we encourage the remaining families to complete registration for the upcoming school year. Registration helps us plan effectively to meet the needs of every student. Our students have had a wonderful time learning and celebrating, knowing they will continue to be part of our Barron family—

where every Pioneer learns and belongs.


Thank you for your continued partnership and support as we close out a successful school year together.


RIGHT HERE. RIGHT NOW.


With gratitude and pride,

The Barron Elementary Leadership Team

Estimadas familias de Barron,


Al comenzar el mes de mayo, estamos emocionados de cerrar el ciclo escolar con fuerza, ya que nos quedan 24 días de clases. Nuestra prioridad sigue siendo la seguridad y el bienestar de nuestros estudiantes, asegurando ambientes de aprendizaje seguros donde cada Pioneer continúe creciendo y teniendo éxito.


Esta semana celebramos con orgullo a nuestros maestros, nuestros héroes de todos los días, quienes hacen posible el aprendizaje durante toda la jornada. Su dedicación, pasión y compromiso hacen una gran diferencia para cada estudiante.


Tenemos muchos eventos emocionantes programados durante el mes, incluyendo:


  • Celebración de la Semana de Agradecimiento a los Maestros

  • Asambleas de reconocimientos para todos los grados en junio

  • Noche de STREAM / Expo GT y Noche de Música, donde los estudiantes presentarán sus proyectos finales

  • Y eventos especiales de fin de año, incluyendo la celebración de nuestros estudiantes de 5º grado al concluir su último año de primaria


También queremos reconocer los grandes logros de nuestros estudiantes:

  • ¡Felicidades a nuestros estudiantes de CRC que participaron en los Juegos UNIDOS! Mostraron entusiasmo, determinación y orgullo Pioneer.


  • Felicitamos a nuestros finalistas de la Feria de Ciencias:

    • Mila Lopez y Kayla Durner – 1er lugar

    • Leonardo Pimental-Rodriguez – 3er lugar


Gracias a
Ms. Payan por organizar la Feria de Ciencias y a todos los maestros por apoyar a nuestros estudiantes.


También agradecemos las actividades realizadas durante el Mes Militar, lideradas por Ms. Chavez con el apoyo de Ms. Berry. Nuestras familias y estudiantes militares hacen grandes sacrificios, y nos honra poder reconocerlos.


Gracias, familias de Barron, por su gran apoyo con el registro escolar. Actualmente estamos en 86.8%, y animamos a las familias que aún no lo han hecho a completar su registro para el próximo ciclo escolar. Esto nos ayuda a planificar mejor y apoyar a cada estudiante. Nuestros estudiantes han disfrutado aprender y celebrar, sabiendo que continuarán siendo parte de nuestra familia Barron—

donde los Pioneers aprenden y pertenecen.


Gracias por su continuo apoyo y colaboración mientras cerramos juntos un año escolar exitoso.

AQUÍ Y AHORA.


Con aprecio,
Sra. Vasquez
