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

Carl Albert Orchestra's Summer Strings Music Camp has been cancelled.

It was a day full of celebration at Barnes Elementary!
We started the morning by recognizing our hardworking 3rd and 4th grade Honor Roll students. Their dedication and achievements this year have been outstanding—way to go, Bluejays! 🏅
Next, we lined the halls for our 5th Grade Promotion Walk, cheering them on as they took their final walk through Barnes. It was a proud and emotional moment for students and staff alike. 💙🎓
We wrapped up with the 5th Grade Promotion and Honor Roll Ceremony, where we celebrated their academic accomplishments and their big step forward to middle school. We are so proud of each and every one of them!
