Rational/Basis of the Practice Rational/Basis of the Practice

Exactly what we needed: MVHS was in need of solutions to engage students, support them in their social/ emotional needs, life needs, and academics so they can have access to a brighter future. School Strength: Relationships BARR took our strength as a school and gave us a system to better serve our students thus transforming the staff and students’ mindsets. BARR is a strengths based model that harnesses the power of relationships and data to shift the mindset and culture in a school. Same teachers. Same students. Better Results.
