These Kindergarteners have big plans for their future!


Last Wednesday, our Kindergartners learned about what living things need to survive and made their own terrariums. We are hoping to see some growth in the next couple weeks! Thank you to Longway Planetarium for helping out students learn these important science lessons!










Families ordering trees-
There was an issue with the shipping of our trees. They will be shipped next week, and will be white pine trees! They should arrive mid-week and will be delivered to Barhitte. They should be sent home with students. If you are expecting a tree and do not have a Barhitte student, an email will be sent to you when they arrive!

All 5 of our caterpillars emerged from their chrysalis’ and we were able to release them on the playground this week. It was very interesting to watch the whole process over the last few weeks!






The Buy One Get One Free Spring Book Fair is coming to Barhitte next week!


An educator from the Flint Institute of Arts came for the 1st of 3 special Art lessons with our Kindergartners. They learned about color, pattern, and used a new medium to make their own masterpieces.
In other exciting news, one of our butterflies finally emerged from it’s chrysalis! We are anxious for the other 4 and to release them on our playground!
