spooktacular night and the outdoor classroom


Volunteers work on the outdoor classroom

Friday, October 30, will bring another spooktacular evening to Barstow. We will start at 6:30 in the library with some mildly scary stories for the K-4 crew, with parent and older student accompaniment. The fireplace will be lit, and the candles aglow, and we will have student, parent ,and staff storytellers on the roster to share a tale. At 6:55, young er students will proceed to the Hall, while students in fifth grade and up(along with parents) are invited down to the new trail off the right corner of the lower parking lot to walk to the newly finished outdoor classroom. There, we will be treated to another story from our annual guest and school board member, Jeff Spaulding. We always come away with new things to think about as we walk to halls and trails of Barstow. It will be a great way to "christen" the new trail and open-air classroom!
