Buttonwillow Union School District

A long day of track in Taft but very eventful for our student athletes for three reasons. The most important is they represented BW well, secondly they had fun, thirdly they brought home the hardware. #1townschoolcommunity

The new water bottles have arrived. These are the third quarter academic achievement award winners. Follow our AVID activities at #BW2College #1townschoolcommunity #BWRunners

Looks like our drawing winners are proud of their new @Fresno_State gear. Maybe these are future #FresnoState Bulldogs. #1townschoolcommunity #BW2College @AVID4College

Last night's LCAP Taco night featured parents complimenting our school on what has been added through LCFF, what changes they would still like to see, and of course staff serving carne asada to our families. #1townschoolcommunity

Since it is the first weekend of MLB, let's show our #BWRunners taking on #wearemaplemustangs in the first game of our softball season. Nice swing Jocelyn. #1townschoolcommunity

We sent 24 students in grades 6-8 to learn about California Resources Corporation's Elk Hills oil field production. We have a great partner in CRC. It is important to learn about jobs and careers in our local area. #1townschoolcommunity

Our BW 3RD graders traveled to the Valley Trails Living History Program in Castaic today. They attended the Hands-on Chumash Native American Program. #1townschoolcommunity #BWExperience #BWRunners

DON'T FORGET to attend LCAP Taco Night on Thursday, March 28th at 6:00 PM. All parents who attend the public discussion of our school needs for improvement, and what we are doing well will receive a free taco dinner for each family member. #1townschoolcommunity #BWExperience

Communication is important in everything we do. Our 8th graders built circles out of Pringle Chips. The collaboration and planning are important characteristics our students need to learn. #1townschoolcommunity #BWExperience @AVID4College

Congratulations to all of our track athletes who participated in the track meet at RBG today and represented BW well. #1townschoolcommunity #BWExperience

Mr. Parrish gave a great lesson on mood in writing and in poetry. Incorporating writing, technology, collaboration,discussion,and AVID strategies are important traits in all lessons at BW. #1townschoolcommunity #BWExperience #BWRunners

You know your school has a great staff when it begins to rain and Roadrunner Award Day w/ outdoor activities is adjusted without complaints. Activities included student choice options of making enchiladas w/ Ms. Payne in the Nutrition Lab. #1townschoolcommunity #BWExperience

It is great to have Megan Gretona from @KCSOS out at BW to work with our preschool staff. We are proud to be educating children as young as age 3 on our campus. All students deserve an opportunity to learn in a safe environment. @MGretona #1townschoolcommunity #BWExperience

Nice article by Cheryl Scott from the Kern Economic Development Foundation. When businesses and schools work together great things can happen. #1townschoolcommunity #BWExperience #BWRunners http://digital.olivesoftware.com/Olive/ODN/BakersfieldCalifornian/Default.aspx

Here is a question for other school districts. Does your district's administrative assistant work in the flower bed with your students? Thank you Mrs. Baugh for spending time with students teaching gardening and lizard hunting. #1townschoolcummunity #BWExperience #BWRunners

Great presentations at last night's board meeting. Sixth graders from Mrs. Younger and Mr. Arreola's classes shared their research and PowerPoints regarding their favorite Egyptian Pharaoh. #1townschoolcommunity #BWExperience #BWRunners

Miss Camacho and Miss Parrish riding exercise bikes during their PE class today. #1townschoolcommunity #BWExperience #BWRunners

We are moving up the valley for our next university spotlight. Our students will be earning BEEP (positive reward) tickets for the opportunity to win Fresno State SWAG. #1townschoolcommunity #BWExperience #BWRunners @AVID4College @Fresno_State

Spring must be right around the corner because Mr. Parrish is working with our long jumpers for the upcoming track season. #1townschoolcommunity #BWRunners #BWExperience

Cal State Bakersfield was the featured university during February. Students won their SWAG this month. Same colors and mascot as BW. Maybe these students will be attending CSUB in the future. #1townschoolcommunity #BWExperience #BWRunners @AVID4College @CSUBakersfield
