Our goal is to encourage each child's potential to unfold by developing creative and imaginative capacities while building a strong academic foundation. Barclay offers an education unlike any other found in Bradford County. We get to know the students personally, and we learn from each other. There are many things that we can learn from children if we are willing to take the time to consider their thoughts and ideas. Our goal at Barclay is to encourage children in a non-competitive environment.
Children work together on cooperative games and projects.
In addition we have integrated an ongoing conflict resolution program designed for students, teachers and parents. In this program teachers assist children in identification of the problem and possible solutions to the problem. We encourage discussion and interaction. We do not condone corporal punishment. We emphasize all aspects of the academic.
