We are thrilled to share that Barton School District has been named EXCEPTIONAL in Chad Aldeman's article, Which School Districts Do the Best Job of Teaching Kids to Read? This recognition highlights how our district is outperforming expectations, proving that rising poverty does not have to limit reading proficiency.

Additionally, our commitment to literacy has led to another milestone: we have advanced from Level 3 (Coordinated Support) to Level 1 (General Support), the lowest and most independent level, on DESE's Coordinated Literacy Support!

These achievements reflect the hard work and dedication of our students, staff, and families in creating a community where literacy thrives. Together, we are building a brighter future! Go Bears!
