Everyday is a beautiful day in Buttonwillow. Today is truly beautiful. 72 degrees & students are able to work outside. Dr. Seuss' green eggs & ham served by the staff to our students for breakfast. A positive school climate! #bwrunners @Teach_Turpin_24 @SmallSchoolDA @nrea1
Always great when Kinder students start using microscopes in the Science Lab. Excitement is contagious. @stemtaught @MissDPayne2 @TracieTwiford @MissPKinder14 @nrea1 @SmallSchoolDA #1townschoolcommunity

A big thank you to the BW community for supporting @ButtonwillowUSD. Student learning and safety continues to be the #1 priority. Our staff has a 94% attendance rate and our student attendance is off 7% (88%) from the pre-covid norm of 95%. Dedication to learning is obvious.
Our BW 8th graders were checking out how to look at and identify the DNA of a strawberry while in Science Lab. @smallschoolda @StemTaught @Teach_Turpin_24 @MissDPayne2 @Science4Kern @miroyscience @admmomH
How can you not provide AVID strategies to our students? Our teachers are making the difference in lives, enough said. Thank you @Teach_Turpin_24 & @AdmmomH for a great presentation on how to implement @AVID4College in small schools throughout CA. @nrea1 @TimSSDA @KcsosStrong
To paraphrase Mister Rogers, "It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood." In this case the Buttonwillow School neighborhood. A pleasant 70° and students are working outside. @smallschoolda @timssda @admmomH #1townschoolcommunity

Preschool is a great place to be in Buttonwillow. Our students are learning through play and get story time with their teacher @karen35836549. Expanding TK and Preschool will be a great addition to our school. #1townschoolcommunity @SmallSchoolDA

A beautiful morning in Buttonwillow as our busses prepare to roll and the snow covered mountains appear closer than ever to the west. Snow to the west occurs maybe 2-3 times per year. @nrea1@smallschoolda #1townschoolcommunity
Our 2nd graders from @Msgonzalez_2nd and Mrs. Lopez's made Three Sisters Tacos using traditional crops of beans, squash, and corn. They learned the importance of these crops to the Native Americans. We also heard beginning band members play. @MissDPayne2 @SmallSchoolDA
Another great day in the science lab with @MissDPayne2. Students in @mrguzmanbw9 completed a teambuilding mission w/ @InfiniDLearning & 1st graders in @msocampo_bw scuba diving in virtual reality and use mica, our microscopes from @StemTaught. @SmallSchoolDA @nrea1 @caedpartners
Representing at the Buttonwillow Christmas Parade and Tree Lighting #onetownschoolcommunity #bwschool
It was great to have our Roadrunners back on campus today. Wonderful to hear positive comments from staff and students. Some students were just plain tired at the end of the day. @smallschoolda #1townschoolcommunity @nrea1 @caruraled
