Fresh Friday!
Every Friday our kids enjoy farm-fresh produce in our cafeteria, a new fruit or vegetable every week. We hope your kids have been enjoying this chance to try something new and healthy every Friday!
We will share here the monthly Fresh Friday newsletters that have been coming home in student’s folders. In an effort to save paper and be a little more eco-friendly, we are trying having these newsletters online only. They contain facts about one of our Fresh Friday favorites, and delicious recipes for you to whip up at home. Enjoy!

BHE PTA Wins Texas PTA Legislative Award!
The Texas PTA allows local PTAs to apply for annual awards at the end of each school year. At the end of June we found out that the Barton Hills PTA was recognized as a Silver Award Winner for all of the Legislative activities we took part in this year. We were the only school to win a Legislative Award! Thanks to everyone who sent postcards throughout the Legislative session, spoke during Legislative hearings, spoke at School Board meetings, and participated in the Save Our Schools rally at the Capitol. Due to your efforts we were able to secure one of the only Legislative Awards that the Texas PTA handed out this year. A big thanks to Kelly Tagle & Celia Cole for getting the paperwork in so that the Barton Hills PTA could be considered for a Legislative Award.
