Barrington took first place in eight out of the 16 events, earning first place overall by an impressive margin. The Eagles final score was 33 points, nearly half that of second place team Cranston West (61 - lowest score wins). This marks the 11th consecutive year Barrington has won Division C.
Congratulations to Barrington seniors Alice Fisher, Connor O'Neal, Jack Kelty, Jessica Liang, Kelly Gorman, Mitchell Salomon, Will Medeiros, and Xan Maddock-Mark. Dear Families and Staff,
We are living in unprecedented times. In 2020, we came together as a world and a nation to address the challenges and uncertainties of COVID-19. These challenges continue to face us, but we have increasing hope with the roll-out of the vaccine. At the same time, we experienced national protests against the racism that continues to plague our Nation. Most recently, we observed an attack on our Capitol. We all have questions about these events and what they mean for the future and how to navigate the concerns that our students may bring into the classrooms with them tomorrow. Throughout our history, Inauguration Day has been a celebration and a peaceful transfer of power from one Administration to the next. Watching the news, many are expressing concerns that this may not be the case. Watching the news, we may all be feeling cautious about how we approach the conversation of Inauguration Day, the storming of the Capitol, and the protests against racism in our country. While we, as adults, are watching the news, asking ourselves these questions, it is essential to remember that our students may have questions and concerns that we need to address. See below for an update from the Superintendent sent to families and staff Thursday afternoon.
Important Update 1/7/2021 Athletics Schedule, Testing, and Important Information Vacations and Distance Learning Quarantine Changes Return to In-person Learning Return to In-person Learning On Monday, January 11, 2021, we will return to a five day a week, in-person model for all students in PK-6 and those identified for a five-day program in 7-12. We will also return to an in-person hybrid for grades 7-12. Monday will be a gold day, followed by blue days on Tuesday and Wednesday and gold days on Thursday and Friday. Due to some quarantines in place, we will need to delay the opening of a few classrooms. Building principals will notify staff and families in these classrooms today and tomorrow. See below for an update from the Superintendent sent to families and staff Wednesday afternoon.
Dear Families and Staff, We hope that you are enjoying a much needed winter break. This morning I met with the District administrative team to establish the date in which we would return to in-person learning. Our updated calendar is below. ● In summary, January 4-8 will be distance learning days for all students and staff. This will allow us an opportunity to ensure we are sufficiently staffed for our return to in-person learning. The majority of districts across the state will be distance learning during the week of January 4-8. This week will also allow the number of student and staff quarantines to slow down prior to re-entry. ● On January 11, all schools will resume in-person learning models that were in place prior to November. All 5 day students as well as students in PK-6 will attend in person 5 days per week. All students in 7-12 will resume hybrid learning with 1/11 starting with Gold Day Students and 1/12 with Blue Day Students. ● Five-day-a-week students at BHS and BMS will expand to those with learning plans, those identified as struggling with distance learning through the high school or middle school team, English Language Learners, and seniors in the CTE program at Barrington High School. See below for an update from the Superintendent sent to families and staff Wednesday afternoon.
Snow Day Plan We are also closely monitoring a potential winter storm that is scheduled for Thursday. All teachers have developed distance learning work for students in the event of power outages that were sent home this week. Please monitor the Rhode Island Broadcasters for school closure information. Thursday morning, we will announce if the day is w/ (with) or w/o (without) Zoom due to power outages on the message. At this time we anticipate returning to in-person learning on Friday, as the forecast looks promising.
