Our 8th graders are visiting the UCLA campus today. They will get to hear from one of our former Buttonwillow students, Lily Villa, who is studying neuroscience at UCLA. @SmallSchoolDA @AVID4College @Teach_Turpin_24 @teachlopez123 @General_Pride
Understanding corn in preschool, touch it, feel it, smell it, husk it, paint with it. Learning through play. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience
It was great to have Beth and Jake out to our school today. They introduced our new coding materials including Microbits from @StemTaught to our classes today. @ClaraYanez2 @Missturm @AdmmomH @MissDPayne2 @SmallSchoolDA
Our partnership with Kern Economic Dev. Found. continues as we had our BW STEM Academy girls meet with their mentors. They conducted flight related projects and then flew in a flight simulator. Thank you California Aeronautical University. #1townschoolcommunity
@AVID4College

It's easy to be a princess in preschool, but the real Queen is @MissDPayne2, the music teacher who comes into to work with the 3 and 4 year olds once a week. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience
Great to have our 6th grade tour @CSUBakersfield today. A wonderful partnership exists between CSUB and BW. Thank you @PaulArreola5 and @mrs_younger_ for being with our students and attending the soccer game as well. @AVID4College #1townschoolcommunity #thisisavid #bw2college .
Our school culture is built on having a #culturized staff and making our students a priority. Thank you @diana_the_twin for telling the staff "Give me crosswalk duty everyday. I love saying goodbye to the students each day." #1townschoolcommunity @stevefarber @casas_jimmy
All students with options after high school. At BW we want our students to be college and career ready. Taft College is our focus for the month of October. It is a great place to begin college or explore careers.. #thisisavid @avid4college #1townschoolcommunity @taftcollegealum
Behind every great school is a great MOT Staff. We couldn't be more proud of Steven, Ruben, Darryl, Misty, and Rosa. Our folks enjoy their job and we appreciate all they do including bus evacuation drills. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience
Can't get enough science. @MissDPayne2 always has students in the BW Science Lab. Today she co-taught the lesson with Miss Twiford and @crazyinkinder14 for our K students and later for our 3rd graders with @Missturm . #1townschoolcommunity @StemTaught
Looks like our students scored big with @uoregon gear and school supplies. Maybe we have some future Ducks in Buttonwillow. #thisisavid @avid4college #bw2college #1townschoolcommunity
Good games going on today as Buttonwillow is playing Wonderful Prep Academy of Lost Hills. Great sportsmanship is on display. #1townschoolcommunity
You can never get enough time in the BW Science Lab. @StemTaught @mrs_younger_ @MissDPayne2 @SmallSchoolDA #1townschoolcommunity
Thank you @ClaraYanez2 for having your 3rd grade students explain in a Google Docs form how to solve a math problem. Great job of addressing our improvement test actions. @caedpartners @SmallSchoolDA #1townschoolcommunity
Today was a great day to be a fireman and a police officer. These two were making sure all our 3 and 4 year old preschool students were safe. #1townschoolcommunity #bwexperience
Happy teachers like @SkowronSam mixed with happy students make for a great Pirate Week. Thanks for making your room a fun and wonderful place to learn at Buttonwillow School. #1townschoolcommunity
Nancy & Shantiana were wonderful Cotton Princesses @ the BW Fall Farm Festival. It's tough being a princess though. You dress up nice, ride behind a tractor, and then have to take care of a bounce house at the park for community service credit for graduation #1townschoolcommunity
The Fall Farm Festival began with the Annual Fun Run. Thank you @ChrisLaFever2 for organizing this year's event. This year also featured the BW Band and a return of the color guard for the first time in over 12 years. Thank you @MissDPayne2 & @isabelv4 #1townschoolcommunity
