Barnard students opened their hearts, medicine cabinets, closets, and pantries to help children and families in need, demonstrating a spirit of giving that permeates the entire school. In September, Barnard kindergartner James W., who is undergoing treatment for cancer, challenged the school community to donate boxes of fun and colorful adhesive bandages to Rady Children\u2019s Hospital for Childhood Cancer Awareness month. More than 300 boxes (8,890 bandages) were collected, which James personally delivered to the hospital. &#8220;When James and I brought the bandages to the hospital, he insisted on carrying one of the 13-gallon bags himself,&#8221; said his mother, Jody. &#8220;These sticky helpers really bring smiles to kids \u2013 including James. He was especially happy to pick out a ninja one to wear after his treatment that day.&#8221; In October, Barnard\u2019s community supported the Little Haiti Refugee Shelter in Tijuana, Mexico, by collecting clothes, blankets, shoes, hygiene products, diapers, and food. Barnard parent volunteer Alejandra Reyes-Tostado was overwhelmed by the amount the school\u2019s families were able to contribute. &#8220;We\u2019ve made five trips to Tijuana with overflowing truckloads of much needed donations for the shelter,&#8221; she said. &#8220;There are so many families at the shelter and more on the way. Barnard\u2019s community has really made a difference.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mission Bay High &#8211; Mission Bay High\u2019s RoBucs, is a robotics team that competes in nationwide competitions through the\u00a0FIRST program.
