This year we will be doing something new in regards to shirts for Field Day. We are selling shirts by grade level. Each grade will have its own color. These shirts will be worn for field trips, Field Day, and other school events. This way the shirt can be worn multiple times. The design of the shirt will look like a sports jersey. Orders need to be turned in by September 20th. Make checks payable to Byrd Elementary. Any questions, email Rachel Rush at rachel.n.rush@gmail.com.

Order forms are available here.

In connection with the Goochland Education Foundation and supported by the Community Foundation of Richmond, our Kajeet Program continues this school year to qualifying families. There are a few changes from the program last year. Check out the following details:

1. Forms must be completed and submitted to a school by September 15, 2018.
2. Families with multiple children can use one form to capture the need for multiple students.
3. Qualifying students must participate in our 1:1 program grades 3-12.

Our thanks go to the new grant sponsor, the Community Foundation.

Forms are available in the Byrd Library and online.
