Love the school, the atmosphere and academics are great. Go to the district website, www.cbisd.com, if you want more detailed info like the district calendar and such.

With Ms. Heidel as the Principal, the school has blossomed. I am really proud for my grandchildren to be going to Barrow Elementary. Mary Ann Reed

As far as the calender of events and the overall information given on this website for parents, I would have to strongly agree with the rating before this one! I would like to be able to look on here and find out whatever I may need to know as I am not the full time guardian and since I don't get that from the kids other parent I don't know how else I am to find out what goes on and when. I would like to be as involved as I possibly can and do not think this website is helpful in helping me to know all I should. It would be nice for someone to take charge and make this website a bit more for all parents to be as informed as they can for their kids attending Barrow Elementary School.

Well I don't think that there is enough information on this web site for parents. Even on the calender is does not specify when summer break is. I would like to see more information about Barrow Elementary.
