Good evening Byrd Family,

We hope you’ve had a lovely weekend!

This is the last week of school before winter break begins.  On Friday, students will dismiss at 1:00.

This week the holiday shop will open for students during lunch times.

This Monday after school the Good News Club will meet.  The Made with Code Party for 4th and 5th grade boys will take place until 4:30 on Monday.  Students who returned the permission slip and received a reminder slip on Friday can attend.

This is the final week the 5th graders will collect for Food Pantry Fridays.  Students have done an amazing job organizing this effort to help our community.  This week students are collecting items for peanut butter and jelly.  If you would like to help support this great cause, then please send your items in by Friday.

We hope you and your family enjoy a wonderful and safe winter break, and a very happy holiday season!  We will look forward to starting a new semester with students when they return on January 2nd!

Thank you for reading, and have a wonderful week!
