Just a reminder. We need parent surveys completed. All names will be put in a drawing to win 1 of 7 Buttonwillow: One School One Town One Community shirt. Survey available at https://bit.ly/bwschoolopen or by scanning the attached code.
It may be summer but the Special Education Team continues to work together to plan for next year. Looking out for the needs of students is a continued priority. Scheduling, meeting goals, and doing what is in the best interest of students is job 1. #1townschoolcommunity

Some with the least understanding of what is happening are our youngest children in schools. Thank you @karen35836549 for sending flat Karen's home to our preschoolers so that can read, eat, swim, and play with their teacher. @caedpartners @SmallSchoolDA #1townschoolcommunity

Our leadership team met about summer school. We reviewed student survey results. 70% of students want on-line classes. Among the classes: math, reading, science, PE, and cooking. We want to stop academic slide by providing opportunities. @CARuralEd @SmallSchoolDA @caedpartners
We were asked to set up a personal zoom meeting between a BW parent & @CAgovernor. She shared our distance learning, it's implementation, and the impact on her family. Thank you Gov. Newsom for listening to small rural districts. @SmallSchoolDA @nrea1 @KCSOS @TonyThurmond @Kajeet
A look back to Friday's food distribution from @CAP_Kern and the @CAPKFoodBank. Thank you to our school staff volunteers who served enough food to cover over 1000 meals. It is about the hands, heart, and mind in BW. #1townschoolcommunity @SmallSchoolDA @caedpartners
Learning continues in Preschool! No Chromebooks like K-8, but we deliver materials so students can learn through play. They even have small @zoom_us and @ClassDojo share meetings with teachers. Our preschool team is doing great. @SmallSchoolDA @caedpartners #1townschoolcommunity
Here is the last of 3 messages that were created for our students by all of the staff at Buttonwillow. We miss our Roadrunners. #1townschoolcommunity @SmallschoolDA

Thank you to @Teach_Turpin_24 and @teachlopez123 for joining our MOT staff today. They helped deliver and handout food to our students and families. Thank you to the teaching staff for providing lunch today to our essential employees. #1townschoolcommunity
