Barron Pioneer Families 2025-26

💙Barron Families,

As we close out Week 7, I want to applaud the amazing work happening across our campus—from strong Tier 1 instruction in classrooms to meaningful family connections during conferences. Our Book Fair was a huge success thanks to our PTA President and volunteers, and parent engagement continues to grow with Ms. Dominguez sharing about GT and Ms. Croissant on attendance. Thank you to all our families for showing up!

Family Fitness Day energized our community, and our future Eagles shined at Andress’ Friday Night Lights! Looking ahead, we have several exciting events to keep building our learning on campus, collaboration, along with building family and student relationships:

• Amplify coaching with teachers to continue strengthening instruction
• Family engagement event with our military families
• Peter Piper Night for fun and community connection
• Puzzling Family Night competition to end the week on a high notePlease join us in supporting these activities and encourage families to participate.

Remember attendance matters! Please support our attendance campaign:

RIGHT HERE. RIGHT NOW! BECAUSE WE ARE PIONEERS!

Let’s keep pushing forward together to ensure every Pioneer succeeds!

Thank you for your dedication to making B.E.S. the place where Pioneers learn and belong! 💙°💯°🔥°

💙Familias de Barron,

Al cerrar la Semana 7, quiero aplaudir el increíble trabajo que se está realizando en nuestro campus, desde la sólida instrucción de Nivel 1 en las aulas hasta las significativas conexiones familiares durante las conferencias. Nuestra Feria del Libro fue todo un éxito gracias a la presidenta de la PTA y a los voluntarios, y la participación de los padres continúa creciendo con la Sra. Domínguez compartiendo sobre GT y la Sra. Croissant sobre la asistencia. ¡Gracias a todas nuestras familias por asistir!

El Día de Ejercicios Familiares energizó a nuestra comunidad, y nuestros futuros Eagles brillaron en el programa Friday Night Lights de Andress. De cara al futuro, tenemos varios eventos emocionantes para seguir fortaleciendo nuestro aprendizaje en el campus, la colaboración y las relaciones entre familias y estudiantes:

• Fortalecer el entrenamiento con los maestros para seguir fortaleciendo la instrucción
• Evento de participación familiar con nuestras familias militares
• Noche de Peter Piper para divertirse y conectar con la comunidad
• Concurso de Noche Familiar de Rompecabezas para terminar la semana con broche de oro. Únase a nosotros para apoyar estas actividades y anime a las familias a participar.

¡Recuerde que la asistencia importa! Apoye nuestra campaña de asistencia:

AQUÍ MISMO. ¡AHORA MISMO! ¡PORQUE SOMOS PIONEROS!

¡Sigamos avanzando juntos para asegurar el éxito de cada pionero!

Sigamos trabajando juntos para que todos nuestros alumnos tengan éxito.
