Thursday, July 10th, 2008
The Clara Barton Elementary School is located at 7437 Corona Valley Avenue in Corona Valley, California.
Named after the American Red Cross founder Clara Barton, the Clara Barton School follows a definite mission statement (taken from their website):
“At Clara Barton Elementary we believe that each student is unique and has the ability and right to find success at school. We seek to collaborate with families in order to develop the total child; academically, socially, emotionally and physically. Clara Barton Elementary will continually foster self-esteem to develop confident, independent thinkers with an eagerness to learn.”
The school is a well-equipped, modern building with a developed nutritional system, a seasoned staff and strict policies designed to keep its students healthy and safe while on the school grounds. It accommodates students in Kindergarten up to Grade 6.
The Clara Barton School is also the birthplace of the Barton Bear Hug, a reward given to students noted for their good behavior. Students receiving these rewards are eligible to win prizes from the main office once each week.
