Barton Elementary School in City of Lake Worth needs help from community.


Ways you can help Barton:

Take donations (see examples below) directly to the school. Clearly mark the intended purpose of your donation. Give that information to the person at the front desk. The school is located at 1700 Barton Rd. Here is the school website and Barton is on Facebook too.

Save The Date! On October 5th at Evening on
Lake Avenue bring donations to the “Community
Schools Outreach” from 6:00–10:00.


Briefly, here are three ways to help Barton Elementary:

  1. Food for the Barton Pantry: Items needed are canned, bagged, or boxed grains, meats, fruits, vegetables.
  2. Trinkets: Good behavior earns students “Barton Dollars”: These ‘dollars’ are then spent in the school store; needed items are Ring Pops, markers, watercolor kits, Play-Doh, stickers, hair ribbons, coloring books, stamp sets, etc.
  3. Funds for Barton Safety Patrol: With good grades and behavior students can join the Safety Patrol in their last year. Patrols are assigned duties that help teachers and administration and each year Safety Patrols from across the State of Florida travel by train to Washington, D.C. to spend a few days exploring and learning. . .

How exciting is that!
