Every high school in Mid-Del participates in College App Week. During this week, schools create opportunities for high school seniors, especially those who have never considered college or career tech or will be the first in their family to attend college or career tech, to receive hands-on assistance from knowledgeable volunteers to complete college applications.
To support these students and raise awareness for College & Career Readiness, we will be asking that all Barnes staff and students show support by wearing college or career tech apparel on Wednesday, October 1st!

✨ Our students had a blast at the NED Show! ✨ They learned the importance of Never giving up, Encouraging others, and Doing their best—all while enjoying an exciting show full of fun and yo-yo tricks. 🎉
To keep the message going and help other schools experience the NED Show, yo-yos will be on sale next week as part of the Pay It Forward program. 💫
Thank you to the NED Show for bringing such a positive message to our school!

Parents and Guardians,
We are excited to welcome our students back for a great school year! If you have not yet started your online enrollment, please know that your child will not be allowed to attend class or school until the enrollment process is complete.
If enrollment is completed today after 4:00 p.m., your child will still not be able to attend class tomorrow. This is because we need at least 24 hours to review and verify all documents, and during the school day, our focus will be on supporting the students already in the building.
Completing your online enrollment as soon as possible will make sure your child has a smooth start and does not miss valuable instructional time.
Thank you for your prompt attention and for partnering with us to make this school year a success! #mdpurpose
