We are so grateful for Officer Barlow (aka Officer B!) and all she does to keep our school safe and supported every single day.
From helping in security situations to jumping in for the small everyday things, Officer Barlow is always calm, kind, and ready to serve. She builds relationships with our students, supports our staff, and brings a steady presence that makes everyone feel secure.
Thank you, Officer B, for protecting our school, showing up with a smile, and going above and beyond in so many ways. We appreciate you more than you know!
