Barton A-Z

During spring 2006 Options, parent Tracy Nielsen asked a class of 4th, 5th and 6th graders to consider the following questions:

  • What is an Open School?
  • What do you see, feel and hear at Barton?
  • Who makes your school special?

The group then went out with cameras to document their answers.  The result is an illustrated ABC’s of Barton. 

This site will feature one letter a week.  You can view the entire alphabet by clicking the Barton ABC's icon under PHOTO ALBUMS to the right.

A is for Art

A

We believe in an enriched curriculum that encourages choice, critical thinking, arts expression, social skills, and intellectual engagement.
