When you arrive @ school in the AM & find out CalTrans hasn't informed the school that repavement of Hwy 58 will shutdown the main entrance/exit during summer school. You punt & do what is safe for kids. Thank you BW parents for flexibility. #1townschoolcommunity

Meet Fatima Mendez. We could not be more proud to have her back at BW. She graduated from BW's 8th grade 10 years ago. Did her student teaching this fall & will be teaching second grade next year. A new team member committed to the community. @smallschoolda @nrea1 @caedpartners
Little known to many people, Roady learned his dance moves as a young Roadrunner in BW. He shows his dance moves to Jiggle Jiggle. He is excited about the end of the year, but will miss the students.
