All K-5 students are invited to our Maker Madness Family STEM Event! We invite your entire family to come and enjoy self-paced activities for students in grades K-5. Activities include: making buttons with the Barrington Area Library, building the tallest paper towers, engineering a safe landing device, and using some of our STEM tools to design, build, and test a grabbing "claw" device.

This event will be held at Prairie Campus. To maximize participation, we are hosting two sessions for this event.
  • Session I:  1:00-2:30 PM
  • Session II: 3:00-4:30 PM
A sign up will go out to families after winter break and it is first come first serve.

The purpose of the Policy Committee is to review existing policies, recommend changes where necessary, and propose new policies for consideration by the Board.

Pursuant to School Board Policy 2:150, the Board of Education may establish committees to assist with the Board's governance function and, in some situations, to comply with state law requirements. Each committee reports directly to the Board of Education. Committee members may include both Board Members and non-Board Members depending on the committee's purpose. Committee appointments are made at the organization meeting of the Board that is held following the consolidated election in April of odd-numbered years. Committee meetings are typically held once per month.
