Thank you to the Bakersfield West Rotary for the $4,000 grant to #KEDF. It will help fund our Buttonwillow STEM Academy for our 5th-8th grade participants this year. Thank you Cheryl Scott at KEDF for working with our school district. #1townschoolcommunity
Our Roadrunners will be sporting new jerseys in all sports next year. There will be new Under Armour uniforms for boys and girls beginning in September with football and volleyball. Thank you Buttonwillow Foundation for the funds needed to get new uniforms. #1townschoolcommunity
Another great graduation in the books. Good luck to the BW Class of 2019. Thanks to all those who helped make the event successful and overcome some concerns at the start of the day. We are #BWRunners. #1townschoolcommunity
At BW we focus on relationships and creating a positive learning environment. Miss Contreras models this each day. When she graduated from @CSUBakersfield last week with a Masters in C & I, 12 of her 7th grade students attended. #1townschoolcommunity @csubted #culturize
A new tradition at Buttonwillow. Our former 8th grade grads from @shafter_high came back to BW to walk the halls and talk next steps that included trade school, JC, and/or 4 year university. @General_Pride #1townschoolcommunity @KHSD_Official @AVID4College
The staff went 3-0 vs the 8th graders this year, after winning the softball game this morning. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience
Assembly for our 6th through 8th grade today brought out our 8th grade gold cord recipients for 3.0 GPAs as well as our 5 min. mile shirts for those under 6 mins. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience @General_Pride @ShafterHigh
Parent participation and involvement is critical to student success. Today we recognized parents who have contributed assistance in the classroom this year. Thank you for finding the time to assist your child's teacher and for making education a priority. #1townschoolcommunity
Tonight was our Kindergarten celebration. The students performed well and the parents loved it. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience
These 3 and 4 year olds from our two preschool classes are cute no matter what they do. They looked the Superintendent in the eye and shook his hand when they got their certificates of completion at tonight's program. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience
When teachers devote their lives to students great things happen at school and in the classroom. On behalf of Buttonwillow School, the School Board, and the staff we congratulate Mrs. Caulfield and Mrs. Ghilarducci on their retirements. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience
BW's goal is to open students to possibilities. As we share universities throughout the year, we recognize the military is also a means to learn about options for their future. This month's gear is from the military academies. #1townschoolcommunity #bw2college @AVID4College
Our BW 6th graders have been enjoying a great week at Camp KEEP. They have enjoyed the Central Coast beach and outdoor education. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience
It was a honor to present awards to our BW 8th graders at the annual BW & Rio Bravo Greeley Awards Dinner tonight. A great group of students is headed to @General_Pride. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience
Our BW STEM Academy girls from 5th and 7th grade visited the oil producing THUMS Island in Long Beach Harbor. The girls' mentors joined us on our trip. Thanks again to Cal. Resources Corp. (CRC) for the tour. #1townschoolcommunity @miroyscience @kernlearningnetwork
@SmallSchoolDA
BW 8th graders visited @General_Pride. Former BW Ss showed where they were headed. Jamilette CC then @csubted to be a teacher @ BW, Tristan CC then @calpoly to study engineering/computer science, and Lily Villa to @UCLA to study nueroscience #1townschoolcommunity #bw4college
Our 6th graders left Buttonwillow this morning and have safely arrived on the Central Coast for a week at the beach. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience #bwrunners
It was a pleasure to have @csubted recognize BW as one of the three districts in the #KRTR. Mrs. Younger was one of the four speakers as she represented her cohort. We continue to have a strong relationship with @csubakersfield #1townschoolcommunity #teachkern
More Color Run pictures. A great time was had by all
A great day for a BW Color Run sponsored by the Parent Club. Grade levels ran in groups, but the sixth graders had an extra run when they were escorted preschool students. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience #bwrunners
