Gala
The Barnhart Gala is our premier fundraising event and an evening of celebration and support for our school. Guests enjoy a night of dining, live entertainment, silent and live auctions, and heartfelt moments that reflect the impact of our mission. The Gala brings together parents, alumni, faculty, and friends to honor our community and invest in the future of our students.
Alumni Reunion
Each spring, we invite the Barnhart alumni graduating from high school to return to campus for a special four-year reunion. This heartwarming event celebrates their accomplishments and gives them a chance to reconnect with teachers, classmates, and their elementary school roots. It's a proud moment for us to see how far our graduates have come—and to remind them that they’ll always have a home at Barnhart.
