💜 A NEW MAGIC TRADITION IS BORN! 🎓👕🎒

Our Barberton High School Seniors recently connected with our newest little Magics—our Kindergarteners—for a special Class T-Shirt Swap!

From high-fives and big smiles to passing the torch, our seniors got to welcome our youngest learners into the district family, while our kindergarteners saw firsthand where their journey with Barberton City Schools will take them. It was an unforgettable day of mentorship, school spirit, and true Magic pride from the very start of the journey to the finish line!

A HUGE thank you to the Barberton Community Foundation for their generous grant support to help us launch this incredible tradition for our students and community! 💙✨

Barberton students aren't just preparing for graduation—they’re preparing for life after graduation.

Through programs like College Credit Plus (CCP) and 4 Cities Compact Programs, BHS students complete hundreds of college credit hours at local universities for free, as well as earning dozens of Industry Recognized Credentials, before receiving their high school diploma!

Whether entering the workforce, learning a trade, or heading to a four-year university, our students leave Barberton High with the skills, drive, and credentials to succeed.

The future of Barberton is sitting in our classrooms today, and that future is bright. ✨

🚌 School Bus Safety: When to STOP 🔴 and when to GO

🟢Keeping our students safe on their way to and from school is a community effort! Here is a quick visual guide to help you know when to stop and when you can proceed when a school bus stops with its arm extended:

🛣️ 1. Two-Lane Road
🔴 Behind the bus: MUST STOP
🔴 Oncoming traffic: MUST STOP

🛣️ 2. Two-Lane Road with Center Turn
🔴 Behind the bus: MUST STOP
🔴 Oncoming traffic: MUST STOP

🛣️ 3. Four-Lane Highway
🔴 Same direction (Behind/Alongside bus): MUST STOP 🟢 Oncoming traffic (Opposite direction): MAY PROCEED / GO

🛣️ 4. Four-Lane Highway with Center Turn
🔴 Same direction (Behind/Alongside bus): MUST STOP 🟢 Oncoming traffic (Across the turn lane): MAY PROCEED / GO

💡 Rule of Thumb: If you are on a 2-lane road (with or without a turn lane), everyone stops 🔴! On a 4-lane road, only traffic traveling in the same direction as the bus must stop 🔴, while oncoming traffic may keep moving 🟢.

Please share this post to keep our neighborhood roads safe for all our kids! ❤️

Even more impressive, Barberton City Schools earned a 5 Star Rating on the College, Career, Workforce, and Military readiness component.

Every lesson taught, every skill mastered, and every certificate and credential earned brings us one step closer to a brighter future.

💜 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝘁 𝗼𝗻 𝗚𝗿𝗶𝘁. 𝗗𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗯𝘆 𝗛𝗼𝗽𝗲. 𝗕𝗮𝗿𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴. 💜

Barberton was never built on easy paths. This community was forged through hard work, determination, and an unwavering spirit. They didn’t call us the "Magic City" by chance—the true magic of Barberton has always been its people, our resilience, and our ability to rally together when times get tough.

Today, our school district faces a real challenge as we navigate state-designated fiscal emergency. We know this brings questions and concerns. But if history has taught us anything, it’s that Barberton does not back down in the face of adversity—we meet it head-on.

𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗲 𝗴𝗼 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲:
🔹 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝗦𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁:
Our core mission remains unchanged. We are fully committed to providing our students with a safe, supportive, and quality education every single day.
🔹 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 & 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆:
We will operate with clear communication, accountability, and disciplined financial stewardship as we work toward long-term stability.
🔹 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗧𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿:
Overcoming this will require thoughtful decisions, collaboration, and the shared strength of our entire community—staff, families, alumni, and neighbors.

Barberton has weathered tough chapters before, and every time, we have emerged stronger, wiser, and more united. This chapter will be no different.

Together, we will protect our tradition, support our children, and build a brighter tomorrow for Barberton City Schools.
