Barnesville Students Awarded the Kupferberg Cup & Cohen Scholarship

Congratulations to our 2021-2022 student recipients of the Kupferberg Cup & Cohen Scholarship!
The Kupferberg Cup is an award given to a rising 5th-grade student who best personifies "The Barnesville Way."  This award is given to honor and celebrate Ann Kupferberg’s 26 years of dedication to The Barnesville School (1984-2010) as a teacher and Lower School Director.  Ann’s love of learning and passion for education helped to shape Barnesville’s Lower School. 

In order to be eligible for this award, the student must have been enrolled in Barnesville for the past three or more years.  The recipient is voted on by the Lower School faculty.  The criteria for this selection are as follows:
  • Adherence to our character words:  kindness, service, perseverance, respect, initiative, courage, cooperation, responsibility, and honesty
  • Good academic standing
  • Potential for leadership in our Middle School
The recipient of the 2022 Kupferberg Cup is Ellsie.
