Principal's Corner

Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year! We are excited to embark upon another school year filled with exceptional educational service to our military community and military-connected children. Our dedicated team of educators and support staff, who are committed to excellence in teaching and learning, have the highest expectations for our students. Together, we strive to create a school environment that enhances student achievement and promotes joy in learning.

We believe parents and guardians are an essential element in the educational program of our school. Strong partnerships with our military-connected families leads to an outstanding student learning experience and, also, promotion of individual student academic, behavioral, and social/emotional growth. Therefore, parents/guardian participation in the learning process is vital to creating an atmosphere of collective commitment to student success. We invite our parents/guardians to volunteer, participate in school events, and attend (PTO) meetings, in order to support all students' learning and actively participate in our school's continuous improvement. If you didn’t have the opportunity to be a part of the PTO this past year, we hope that you will join this organization as we move into a new year. The PTO is a great resource and support to our students. Hats off to all those who have volunteered their time and talent to the PTO!

We look forward to partnering with the entire Barkley community throughout this school year. Please do not hesitate to contact the school at any time to answer any questions or assist in navigating our educational program. We appreciate your support and assistance as we work together to ensure all students feel safe and encouraged to maximize their potential in their pursuit to excellence.
