Briggs School is participating in the Hay Wrap Take Back Project this year. When not disposed of properly, hay wrap and twine become entangled in farming equipment, fencing and grassy areas.
We have a recycling bin for hay wrap and twine located north of the old gym, by the old softball field. We appreciate your help in participating in this project to keep pastures clean, protect wildlife and save on costly equipment repairs! We also have the opportunity of winning a cash prize for our school if we collect the largest weight amount!

Great job to our Cherokee Bowl participants today. They made it through 4 rounds! We are so proud of you!

Would you like to help your child win a pizza party for their class? Impact Aid Survey forms will be sent home today. Each homeroom class that has 100% return rate by the deadline of October 10th will receive a pizza party!!!
You can become an active part of helping to provide funding for our school by simply filling out the survey. In the past, funds generated from Impact Aid have been used to assist in the construction of the gym, new softball field complex, new elementary building, football stadium, and the theatre/band room. Impact Aid funds were recently used to assist in the construction and renovation of the new Middle School and Lower Gym. Without Impact Aid funds, Briggs would not be able to undertake these construction projects. We hope you will take a moment to respond to the survey and return the form to the school as soon as possible.
We thank you in advance for your willingness to complete the Impact Aid Survey!
