Congratulations to Mrs. Whitworth's Class! 🎉

One of our fantastic CBSA classes of KG-1st graders participated in an exciting alphabet exchange with schools nationwide. Mrs. Whitworth's class painted 26 vibrant J's for Jaguar and sent 25 of them to different schools across the country. In return, each school crafted a unique letter and sent it to them. Along with each letter, they received a special note sharing information about its origin. Here's a snapshot of their completed board!

Their class had a blast learning letters this way—so much fun and creativity! Great job, Mrs. Whitworth's class! 🎨✉️✨

🎁 Help Us Spread Holiday Cheer! 🎁

As the holidays approach, our care pantry could use some extra supplies. If you're able to contribute any of the following items, it would be greatly appreciated. You can drop them off at the front office:

Shampoo
Conditioner
Men’s Body Wash
Kid’s Body Wash
Antiperspirant/Deodorant
Laundry Detergent Sheets or Pods
Girl’s Underwear (Size 14/16) or Women’s Size Small
Dishwashing Liquid

Additionally, if you’d like to sponsor a Berryhill Elementary family or child for Christmas, please contact Trish Bull at extension 4118. We have several families in need this year.

As a sponsor, we ask that you provide each student with at least one outfit (a shirt, pants, and a pair of shoes) and two items from the toy ideas list. Please wrap these gifts and place them in a separate large black trash bag with the student’s number clearly marked on the outside. If you prefer, we can wrap them for you. This process helps us ensure that each gift reaches the right family, as we will match the numbers to the names.

Thank you for making this season brighter! 🎄✨
