Let’s spread some cheer and show our White Tigers how much support they have this school year! 💙🤍🐾

White Tigers, summer is a great time to keep reading! 📚🐯

Reading can happen anywhere! On the couch, outside, in the car, at the library, or before bed.

We challenge our students to read something they enjoy and share it with someone at home. A book, comic, magazine, recipe, poem, or article all count!

Keep learning, keep growing, and keep reading, White Tigers!

Summer check-in, White Tigers! ☀️🐯

We hope our Barrett families are enjoying time to rest, recharge, and make special memories together.

Tell us in the comments: What is one fun thing your White Tiger has done this summer?

Reading a great book, visiting family, playing outside, going to camp, trying something new — we would love to hear from you!

Happy 4th of July from Kate Waller Barrett Elementary School! 🇺🇸✨

We hope our White Tiger families enjoy a safe, relaxing, and joyful Independence Day filled with family, fun, and celebration.

As we celebrate today, we are grateful for the community that makes Barrett such a special place to learn and grow.

Happy 4th of July, White Tigers!
🐾❤️🤍💙🐾
