Jose Diaz: As a former student, in 1983, I must say that Barringer was the best High School I ever attended. Due to my family financial circumstances I couldn't make it to the graduation, but after 26 June 1983, when I went personally to the office to pick up my Graduation Diploma, I cried after telling the staff there about my situation concerning my graduation attendance and it was a good feeling because with that Diploma I am now retired from the Navy and I hope the school creates an idea and follows up on those students in need, similar to mines! GOD bless you all.
Respectfully,

From being a student at barringer high school I say, besides all the roumor's, I think this school is the best and I think it could be better if the kids at this school get along better and follow the teachers intructions, and someday if this happens i think those bad roumors about this school will be reborn into good roumors.
