The administration and staff at Barry Elementary are dedicated to the proper preparation and instruction of elementary school students in order that they may successfully continue with their education, reach their potential, pursue their aspirations, and eventually become contributing community members.  In assuming our responsibility to achieve these goals and accepting the challenges presented in our classrooms, we must be responsive in addressing all factors which influence the educational, emotional and social development of children in a manner which is appropriate, purposeful and meaningful to each individual.
