Barth Elementary School recently held an awards program to honor the accomplishments of the 3rd and 4th grades. One of the elite awards given out was the ENGLE AWARD. Background: Mr. William Engle established a fund for children because he loved them and wanted to be remembered by them. This fund has been collecting interest since his death in 1935. The interest from this fund is awarded to students who have made the most significant progress through their third and fourth grade elementary years. These students show dedication, perseverance, and a willingness to go above and beyond the required academics. They consistently perform their very best. This award is presented to the three students with the highest academic standing upon their exit from fourth grade. Barth's Engle Award Winners were: 1st place – Christinna Longenecker 2nd place – Zachary Mitchell 3rd place – Makenzie Johnson
