The Barnesville School expects the behavior of all members of its community to be guided by the values of respect, cooperation, kindness, service, responsibility, initiative, perseverance, honesty, and courage. Barnesville community members will uphold these values personally and will help others to understand and achieve them. Barnesville students are also expected to represent the school positively in all activities and functions outside of school and behave in compliance with our Honor Code and Community Expectations.
As a learning community, the School expects all members to develop these qualities as they strive for: ● Courtesy and respect in word and deed in all dimensions of school life. ● Respectful handling of personal and community property. ● Responsibility for the safety of self and others. ● Accountability in meeting academic and community obligations with honesty and perseverance.
When these expectations are not met, the School will take appropriate action to sustain and promote its stated values. We reserve the right to change or amend these guidelines and policies as circumstances require.
Our teaching encourages students to explore how subjects relate to one another, helping them to make connections that spark inquiry and deepen understanding.
