Principal's Message

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the family of Barnes Elementary School! Our building buzzes with excitement and anticipation for what is to come on a daily basis. We have an outstanding crew of professional educators that take pride in making the most fantastic year of learning, laughing, and growing as a school family for our students. 

The work we do together always centers around providing a safe, motivating environment where learning is our priority! The partnership between school and home is a relationship that is critical to our student's success so we encourage your involvement and engagement! We are glad that things have “opened back up” for in-person learning opportunities and events that help us make memories with kids. I hope that you will not hesitate to call our office 918-272-1153 for any questions or concerns that you may have.
