Sidewalk Chalk + Sunshine + Multiplication!

Ms. Price’s class took advantage of the beautiful weather and moved our math learning outside! Students grabbed some sidewalk chalk and worked together to practice and reteach multiplication skills.

Sometimes a change of scenery (and a little chalk!) is just what we need to make learning click. We loved seeing our Bulldogs working hard, helping one another, and enjoying the sunshine while strengthening their math skills!

Even Principals Love Dress-Up!

There’s never a dull moment when you’re hanging out with our littlest Bulldogs! Mr. Hogan stopped by preschool and quickly found himself right in the middle of dress-up time—and of course, he was a great sport and joined in on the fun!

We love seeing our principal take time to laugh, play, and make special memories with our students. Whether he’s running the school or rocking the latest preschool fashion, Mr. Hogan knows how to make our Bulldogs smile!

It’s moments like these that make Barnett such a fun and special place to be!

Do Your Best! Be Your Best! Feel Success! 💙💛🐾

WHAT AN AMAZING FIRST WEEK!

Our first week of school is officially in the books, and what a GREAT week it has been! Our classrooms have been filled with smiling faces, new friendships, learning, laughter, and lots of Bulldog spirit. It has been so fun watching our students settle into their classrooms, reconnect with friends, meet new teachers, and begin another year of learning and growing together.

A HUGE thank you to everyone who helped make this first week such a success!
To our students: Thank you for bringing your excitement, energy, and smiles through our doors each day. We are so happy to have you back! To our teachers and staff: Thank you for all the time, love, preparation, and hard work you put into making our students feel welcomed, safe, and excited to learn. To our parents and families: Thank you for trusting us with your amazing kids and for supporting our school. We are so grateful to have you as part of our Bulldog family!

Here are just a few snapshots of the fun happening around Barnett during our first week! We couldn't have asked for a better start to the school year, and we can't wait to see what this year has in store!

Here’s to an AMAZING year, Bulldogs! Do Your Best! Be Your Best! Feel Success! 💙💛

Guess This Bulldog Reveal!

The mystery Bulldog is... Preston Adams, our new Title I Staff Developer!

Preston was born in Texas, but he was raised right here in Spanish Fork and Springville, making his return to Nebo feel like coming home. Growing up, he was a huge sports fan and spent countless hours on the basketball court. Being part of the BYU community was also a big part of his childhood, as his dad was a professor there, making Cougar sports a family tradition.

After graduating from BYU, Preston began his teaching career in the Alpine School District. Before long, he realized his heart was calling him back home, where he joined the Nebo School District as a 5th grade teacher at Meadow Brook Elementary. During his time there, he earned his master's degree in Educational Leadership from UVU, continuing his passion for learning and helping others grow.

Preston and his wife have a sweet story—they first met in high school and reconnected after serving their missions. Today, they're proud parents of two wonderful daughters, and they're eagerly awaiting the arrival of their baby boy this September!

We are so excited to welcome Preston Adams to the Barnett family as our new Title I Staff Developer. His love for education, leadership, and helping both students and teachers succeed makes him a wonderful addition to our Bulldog team. Welcome to Barnett, Preston—we're so glad you're here!

Guess This Bulldog!

It's time for another round of Guess This Bulldog! Put your detective skills to the test and see if you can figure out which Barnett Bulldog we're describing!

Here are your clues:

This Bulldog has broken NINE bones and survived FOUR concussions! Talk about being tough!

They're considered pretty tall... unless they're standing next to Mr. Hogan! 😄

This foodie spent the summer mastering the art of homemade cheesecake, baking fresh bread, and perfecting their skills at the grill. If there's good food involved, they're probably smiling!

Do you know who this Bulldog is?

Drop your guess in the comments below, or email Jane Price at [email protected].

Good luck, Bulldogs—we can't wait to see your guesses!
