During the first half of 2024, more than 2,500 community members collaborated on a plan to continue to improve Barrington 220's aging school buildings. The final $64M community-driven plan will go to you, the voter, for approval as a referendum question on this November 5 election ballot. If successful, the referendum will:

• Increase Safety & Security throughout Barrington 220
• Build a New Community Auditorium at Barrington High School
• Enhance STEAM and Instructional Spaces for Students

Join us at one of our upcoming community meetings to learn more about the referendum, tour current spaces, and see why these improvements are needed:

• 6pm Monday, Sept. 9 at Barrington High School
• 6pm Wednesday, Sept. 18 at Station Campus
• 6pm Thursday, Sept. 19 at Barbara B. Rose Elementary
• Noon Saturday, Sept. 28 at Barrington High School (immediately following the homecoming parade)

All 4th and 5th grade Boys and Girls are welcome to join Roslyn Choir! Roslyn Choir is an after school club where all we do is sing! This is a great opportunity for the students to work on their singing skills, build friendships, and perform at various events throughout the year.
