How will BARR help me as a student?
All of our 9th grade students at SJHS are BARR students. You will have a block team of teachers (English, science and math) working together to help support your success. You will engage in activities called I-Time that will help you to build new relationships with your teachers and fellow classmates. BARR will help to build a network of support for you as you transition into high school and build connections that will be important as you move through the next four years.
Who is on the BARR team and how can they help me if I need it?
In addition to your block team of teachers, our 9th grade counselors, educational therapist, assistant principal and BARR coordinator are here to help support you. They meet with your block team of teachers every other week and can help connect you with the appropriate support staff person when you need them.
