Virtual SCORE Board

Red Ribbon Week

Red Ribbon Week is underway and going awesome at Brywood. Pennies for prevention have been collected everyday and so far we have collected 174lbs. towards our goal of 500 lbs of pennies.

The primary and upper grade class with the most pennies collected this week will be rewarded with a Popsicle treat for their hard work. So far the int he lead is, Johnson for primary and Kearns for upper grades.

Please be sure to keep sending in those pennies for a great cause. Winners will be announced Friday!

Tomorrow night is a Brywood Homework free night to allow you to enjoy a night with your community, please try to o make the most of the time and have your kids connect with others around them. Strong sense of community can be linked to kids who choose not to get involved with drugs.

Below you will find a few attachments, please be sure to review them. The family contract if turned in before Friday will get your child a free meal certificate.

If you have any question regarding Red Ribbon week, please Email Kathleen Lhamon at redribbon@brywoodpta.com
