Pursuant to School Board Policy 2:150, the Board of Education may establish committees to assist with the Board's governance function and, in some situations, to comply with state law requirements. Each committee reports directly to the Board of Education. Committee members may include both Board Members and non-Board Members depending on the committee's purpose. Committee appointments are made at the organization meeting of the Board that is held following the consolidated election in April of odd numbered years.

Families of students of all ages are invited to join us to learn more about the GEM Program at Barrington High School! 

The GEM Showcase will be an open house event that will allow GEM students to highlight some of their learning experiences and independent research during the first half of the 2023-24 school year. Refreshments will be served.

The BHS GEM (Grow, Excel, Magnify) program, which is only open to seniors this school year, allows students to expand their learning through flexible, project-based learning options and field experiences during the school day. Schedules are customized to each student, allowing them to mix GEM experiences with traditional classes. The district plans to expand the program by offering it to juniors and seniors for the 2024-25 school year.

    As a teacher at NBS, I can positively influence a child's way of thinking or doing. I can facilitate a safe learning environment for them to build their self-esteem, thrive, and believe in their ability to learn, no matter what obstacles they face. I can make a difference.
