Pursuant to School Board Policy 2:150, the Board of Education may establish committees to assist with the Board's governance function and, in some situations, to comply with state law requirements. Each committee reports directly to the Board of Education. Committee members may include both Board Members and non-Board Members depending on the committee's purpose. Committee appointments are made at the organization meeting of the Board that is held following the consolidated election in April of odd-numbered years. Committee meetings are typically held once per month. The purpose of the Finance Committee is to review the district budget, financial projections, and other important financial documents and reports.

Do you have a child entering kindergarten for the 2025-26 school year? Are you interested in enrolling your child in Barrington 220's innovative Kindergarten Lab Program at Barrington High School?
The K-Lab includes two specially designed kindergarten classes inside BHS. The classrooms are connected by an observation lab for high school students enrolled in early childhood education classes.
Thanks to its location at BHS, students enrolled in the K-Lab Program can engage in unique experiential learning opportunities throughout their school day. Some of these opportunities include horticulture activities inside the BHS greenhouse, authentic learning experiences inside the new state-of-the-art culinary arts lab, musical instrument exploration with high school band and orchestra students, and cultural celebrations with BHS world language students. K-Lab students also have the opportunity to learn from supervised and supported high school mentors. This ranges from support in developing core skills with personalized instruction to hands-on experiences.

My favorite part of my job is watching the transition that occurs in our students from freshmen year to senior year. I am lucky enough to watch this growth and maturity while guiding them a bit along the way. It makes me proud to be in this profession and be a part of the Barrington process.Barbara BarreiroLife Skills Department Chair
Barrington 220 is a place where students establish the fundamentals to forge their own paths. We read, write, think, discuss, and create. As a current faculty member and proud graduate of Countryside, Prairie, and BHS, I look forward to working with students every day to create the next generation of thinkers, learners, and creators. There's nowhere else I'd rather teach. I'm proud to work in Barrington 220 and I'm glad you're here.Cary WaxlerSocial Studies Teacher
