Let’s hear it for the Byrd 5th graders! Twenty-four students took part in an OPTIONAL W.I.N. time activity and submitted an original short poem to the Arts Council of Glen Rock poetry contest. They had to research to learn about all different types of short poem types (haiku, cinquain, tanka, etc.) and craft their piece independently during class time.
These four amazing writers were selected as finalists and their poems will be on display at the GRAC exhibition in April! Congratulations!

Byrdies were welcomed back from Spring Break with a visit from furry friend, Stella, the therapy dog! Students enjoyed cuddles, smiles and a little stress relief while spending time with Stella.
