Congratulations to Barrington High School, Apple Distinguished School

Barrington 220 is pleased to announce that Barrington High School has been recognized as an Apple Distinguished School for 2018–2021. BHS received the recognition for our implementation of the One to World initiative, which provides all students with a MacBook Air.

Apple Distinguished Schools are centers of innovation, leadership, and educational excellence that use Apple products to inspire creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking. They showcase innovative uses of technology in learning, teaching, and the school environment and have documented results of academic accomplishment.
 



“We recognize that the changing needs of our students and the world for which we prepare them demand of us that we continually audit our practices and push ourselves to be better,” said BHS Principal Steve McWilliams. “At Barrington High School, our One to World vision allows every student to be immersed in a culture of learning in every classroom. Three key values drive our decision making: equal access to rigor, personalized learning and growth mindset.”

As part of the process to become an Apple Distinguished School, we had the opportunity to create a multi-touch book that documents Barrington High School’s technology-enabled programs. The book features content contributed by several BHS teachers, Department Chairs, and other administrators. Featured throughout the book is the stunning photography of Mr. Ron Johnson, one of the Campus Attendants at BHS.

We invite you to download the book now to any Apple device with the Books app installed.
