We were fortunate to have a great speaker on campus today. @Linebacker_Dad gave an awesome message to our 4th-8th graders about making good choices. He served as a counselor at Camp KEEP for some of our 6th graders last year. #1townschoolcommunity
Plan on attending the BW Turkey Bingo Night this Friday at the Buttonwillow Rec this Friday.
We love curriculum integration at BW. The history and art of Ancient Egypt integrated with the science of mummification. Our 6th grade students creating canopic jars to mummify a cut apple. #1townschoolcommunity Thank you @PaulArreola5 & @MissDPayne2
Duke is our featured university this month. Some of the gear is up. We will see students wearing Duke around campus beginning in December. #1townschoolcommunity @AVID4College @DukeU #bwexperience
Our students had the BEEP ticket drawing Taft College gear. @taftcollegealum was our college for October. Many of our former students and staff have attended Taft. These BW students could start their careers/college experience in Taft. #1townschoolcommunity @AVID4College
What a pleasure to walk in @mrs_younger_'s classroom and watch teaching that includes high level thinking, collaboration, class oral presentations, Google Slides, scaffolding, inquiry, and critical thinking among other things. #1townschoolcommunity @AVID4College @SmallSchoolDA
Congratulations to Marie Parsons, one of our five school board members. She was recognized for 25 years of service as a school board member at tonight's Kern County Trustee Dinner. Thank you for supporting our students. #1townschoolcommunity
Our 8th graders are visiting the UCLA campus today. They will get to hear from one of our former Buttonwillow students, Lily Villa, who is studying neuroscience at UCLA. @SmallSchoolDA @AVID4College @Teach_Turpin_24 @teachlopez123 @General_Pride
Understanding corn in preschool, touch it, feel it, smell it, husk it, paint with it. Learning through play. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience
It was great to have Beth and Jake out to our school today. They introduced our new coding materials including Microbits from @StemTaught to our classes today. @ClaraYanez2 @Missturm @AdmmomH @MissDPayne2 @SmallSchoolDA
Our partnership with Kern Economic Dev. Found. continues as we had our BW STEM Academy girls meet with their mentors. They conducted flight related projects and then flew in a flight simulator. Thank you California Aeronautical University. #1townschoolcommunity
@AVID4College

It's easy to be a princess in preschool, but the real Queen is @MissDPayne2, the music teacher who comes into to work with the 3 and 4 year olds once a week. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience
Great to have our 6th grade tour @CSUBakersfield today. A wonderful partnership exists between CSUB and BW. Thank you @PaulArreola5 and @mrs_younger_ for being with our students and attending the soccer game as well. @AVID4College #1townschoolcommunity #thisisavid #bw2college .
Our school culture is built on having a #culturized staff and making our students a priority. Thank you @diana_the_twin for telling the staff "Give me crosswalk duty everyday. I love saying goodbye to the students each day." #1townschoolcommunity @stevefarber @casas_jimmy
Behind every great school is a great MOT Staff. We couldn't be more proud of Steven, Ruben, Darryl, Misty, and Rosa. Our folks enjoy their job and we appreciate all they do including bus evacuation drills. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience
All students with options after high school. At BW we want our students to be college and career ready. Taft College is our focus for the month of October. It is a great place to begin college or explore careers.. #thisisavid @avid4college #1townschoolcommunity @taftcollegealum
Can't get enough science. @MissDPayne2 always has students in the BW Science Lab. Today she co-taught the lesson with Miss Twiford and @crazyinkinder14 for our K students and later for our 3rd graders with @Missturm . #1townschoolcommunity @StemTaught
Looks like our students scored big with @uoregon gear and school supplies. Maybe we have some future Ducks in Buttonwillow. #thisisavid @avid4college #bw2college #1townschoolcommunity
Good games going on today as Buttonwillow is playing Wonderful Prep Academy of Lost Hills. Great sportsmanship is on display. #1townschoolcommunity
