What a great day to be starting up school again after the break. It was wonderful to see our Roadrunners back at school. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience
The Great Wall of Darryl Tindell has been rebuilt. Last time we shared how our MOT Staff waxed the gym floors. Today, while 50 other staff were enjoying vacation, Darryl, Ruben, and Misty rebuilt the Great Wall without major injury. Splinters don't count. #1townschoolcommunity
Thank you @buttonwillowusd, staff, students, & families for making the Winter Program awesome. Watching preschoolers perform, students performing for the first time on stage in 8 years, new leaders shining, and the community coming together in one room. #1townschoolcommunity
Our new flag team will perform at tonight's Winter Program. There will also be a few surprises that only a select few know about. Performance starts at 6 pm. Seating for parents is located in the chairs and bleachers in the middle section. Enjoy the evening! #1townschoolcommunity
Incorporating writing, academic language and @next_gen_math with standards based teaching is making a difference with BW students. @mrs_younger_ & @teachlopez123 led today's focus on looking at student work. Thank you @caedpartners for a great partnership #1townschoolcommunity
Awesome start today! We heard 3 & 4 year olds sing "S-A-N-T-A, and Santa is his name--o". After singing, Santa showed up to listen to the preschoolers. Thank you @aeraenergyllc for sending elves to help Santa. The BW office staff had a picture with Santa. #1townschoolcommunity
Congratulations to Mrs. Yanez's class for earning @Achieve3000 Read to Succeed Contest.

Power has been restored to the school. We are now on full and complete operation. Thank you!
You can send your children to school. The power is out throughout the Buttonwillow community. School will be in session. Power is expected to be returned to the campus at 11:45. All safeguards will be in place. Thank you.
The last staff meeting before break called for a gingerbread house competition including most edible least likely to be a house, most creative, and cleanest. #1townschoolcommunity
Another fun evening for our girls in the BW STEM Academy. Pizza, photo booth, cookie decorating, and most importantly time spent with mentors before the holidays. @smallschoolda #1townschoolcommunity

Thank you to the Dairy Council of California for bringing Buttercup the cow out to our playground. Our students enjoyed the visit and the information about the dairy industry. #1townschoolcommunity @smallschoolda @nrea1
Our Maintenance Team at BW is second to none. Awesome job, Ruben, Darryl, Misty, and Rosa on the gym floor. You worked hard while many of us were away from campus. Shiney and bright for our new basketball season to start. Reflections! #1townschoolcommunity
With just a few people on campus today it was time to trim the palm trees, including our In n Out Burger style palms in front of the office. Enjoy your week of Thanksgiving Break.
Our November drawings were held @buttonwillowusd. The students had an opportunity to be selected for @DukeU gear. Tickets were for actions, improvements, successes, and respect. #1townschoolcommunity @avid4college #thisisavid
