Our 4th grade students had an incredible learning experience at the" Goochland Museum", which was delivered to our library! They explored how life in our county has changed from early Native American history through the arrival of the English at Jamestown in 1607, up until the present. One highlight of the activity was a wonderful historical reenactment by Mr. Wilson!
Even better—every student in our school had the chance to view the museum displays throughout the day.
A huge thank you to Randolph Elementary teachers Beth Ferguson and Suzanne Taylor for bringing the exhibits to Byrd and setting them up for our school community. What a special day of hands-on history!

Our 2nd graders had a great time exploring math with Ms. Slater!
Students rotated through hands-on stations, weighing different objects and discovering how measurement helps us make sense of the world. We love seeing their curiosity grow through engaging, real-world math experiences!

🏃♀️ Girls on the Run!
This fall, students at all three of our elementary schools have been building confidence, teamwork, and perseverance through the Girls on the Run program. Last week, our teams completed a “practice 5K” at their schools in preparation for the big event — a regional 5K taking place this weekend with Girls on the Run teams from across the area.
We’re so proud of these girls and their coaches for all of their hard work and dedication! 💪💜

Thanks to everyone who came out to support the Byrd Bazaar! It was an amazing night for our school community, and we set a record for the money we raised! Thank you to all of our vendors (and their families) and teachers for helping to support this event!

Today, our Byrd community came together to honor and thank the Veterans who have served our country. We are so grateful to the incredible Veterans who spent time with our students—sharing their stories, answering questions, and helping our children understand what it means to serve (Mr. Meyers, Mr. Bodin, Mr. Meiller, Mr. Fulton, and Ms. Peltz).
A heartfelt thank you to Christine Fauver, who brightened our halls once again dressed as a bomber girl and read to students throughout the day. Thank you also to Lorraine Christ from the American Legion Auxiliary, who dedicated her entire day to coordinating our Veteran visitors and sharing American flags with every student.
We are deeply appreciative of all who made this special day possible and to every Veteran in our community—thank you for your service and sacrifice.

Our Girls on the Run group will run their 5k this week on Tuesday after school! They are collecting items for Goochland Cares. We are so proud of our hard working girls! They made these beautiful flyers to advertise the event.


It is always a special day when the reading therapy dogs spend time at school (Thank you, Ms. Williamson)!






The Byrd Bazaar is this week! Our student vendors have been hard at work making items to sell. 100% of all sale proceeds will be split and donated to our school courtyard improvement fund and also the Goochland Animal Shelter! We hope to see you Thursday from 5:30-7. Cash only shopping!

Congratulations to our 5th graders on their completion of the D.A.R.E. program! We appreciate our SRO, Officer Donithan, for all of the time and enthusiasm he pours into this important program! Our kids enjoyed a nice ceremony and a pizza party today to celebrate!
