As part of Barrington 220's 50th anniversary celebration this school year, we are hosting a Secondary Fine Arts Historical Celebration at Barrington's White House on April 10. We will feature historical artifacts showcasing how the arts in Barrington's schools have a long tradition of excellence and community outreach. We will celebrate the rich tradition of arts through musical performances, art displays, and a panel discussion of present and past influencers in the arts. If you are interested in participating in the gathering of artifacts, recommending past students or staff for the panel, or have a great idea to celebrate the history of arts in our community, please email btileston@barrington220.org. #Unifiedfor50

Are you interested in learning more about PUNS (Prioritization for Urgency of Need for Service) and whether your child qualifies for enrollment? Join our virtual presentation led by Stephen Joseph of CAU on April 10 at 6:00 PM.

PUNS is a statewide waiting list for individuals with developmental disabilities who may need funding for services either now or in the future. Children as young as 2.5 years old, teens, and adults can enroll in PUNS when they have been diagnosed with a developmental disability. There can be a long wait before someone is selected for funding so we encourage you not to wait!
