Renovated Science Labs Near Completion

Middle & upper school students will return to a major modernization of the School's Chemistry, Environmental Science and Physics labs. This $600,000 project reflects Barstow's deep commitment to STEAM education and promises to transform the way our students learn sciences. 
Through upgraded lab infrastructure, flexible classroom design and improved safety systems, students will engage more deeply in hands-on learning in spaces that encourage critical thinking, problem solving and real-world  application. New equipment that supports inquiry-based instruction will allow students to participate in authentic experimental design, data collection and analysis, and our faculty will collaborate in planning workshops to ensure design meets rigorous instructional goals.
 
We are grateful to the Anne and JB Hodgdon Foundation, the Graves Family Foundation, Brette Hart Humphreys and Greg Humphreys, Tiffany and Allan Simpson, Ginger and Rob Rothhaas and the William T. Kemper Foundation – Commerce Bank, Trustee, for making this renovation possible.

The School's ongoing success is rooted in the partnerships we share with families, alumni and our community. We are truly grateful for your continued support — and hopeful this project will be a blueprint for the continued renovation of our Biology, Physical Science and Anatomy and Physiology labs.
