🏃♀️ 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!
Our preschool and kindergarten students were so excited to use Ozobots today!
Our students have been hard at work preparing items for the Byrd Bazaar! We hope to see you tomorrow from 5:30-7. Sales are cash only, and directly support our school and locals animal shelter.
Braise N Smoke and Rama's Cafe will be on site selling dinner!
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.

Today we proudly honor all who have served our country — including our very own Byrd staff Veterans: Mr. Meiller, Mr. Frank, Mr. Tomlin, and Ms. DiPace.
Students will take part in special activities today to learn about and celebrate the bravery and sacrifice of our Veterans. Thank you for your service!

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!

Thank you to our school psychologists who are an important piece of our community and help us to best serve students' needs! We are grateful for you and the work you do!
Pumpkin decorating is in full swing! Our classes are working hard (and having lots of fun!) getting their pumpkins ready for the big contest. Stay tuned to see their amazing creations!
We loved having Mrs. Fletcher back at Byrd as a guest reader! A beloved former teacher, Mrs. Fletcher continues to light up our hallways with her warmth and joy. Once an Eagle, always an Eagle!
Mrs. Creasey's kindergarten class read the book We Are In A Book! (Elephant and Piggie). Then each student created a page about themselves and we "walked" our book to encore to read it to Mrs. Boisseau. The students loved being inside of their own book!
Mr. Kempf brought the Chick Fil A Leadership Academy from the high school to Byrd to read with our kids on our special reading day! Our eagles got to spend time with positive reading role models AND they got to take home a free book!
