Wishing you and your loved ones a fantastic Second Winter Break! There will be no school February 17th through February 21st!

Popcorn Friday is one of the most loved programs at Briarwood! Our next popcorn Friday is February 28th! We still need volunteers to make this happen! If you are interested in volunteering, you can sign up here!

Please note: Our popcorn shifts are changing! All popcorn will be given out during lunch recess from March onward. Our Popping shift is from 9:15 - 12:15 PM and our Seller shift is from 11:30 AM - 1:20 PM.

If the popcorn shifts are full, you can always email: Briarwood.Popcorn.Committee@gmail.com to see if you can come and help as an extra helper. We can always use help - especially for popping!

Also, we are looking for a person to run Popcorn Fridays next year! It is a once per month program. This volunteer position's duties include: setting up and maintaining a sign up for volunteers, training new volunteers, inventorying supplies, and working with the Programs Chair to purchase items needed.

The 5th Grade Ceramics Project is coming up in March! Stay tuned for updates and the volunteer sign up!

Every grade will get an opportunity to make a clay project this year. Please reach out to the Briarwood Ceramics Committee at Briarwood.Ceramics@gmail.com for more information.

We would like to extend a BIG thank you to Beth Koontz for helping our ceramics committee get Briarwood's ceramics program up and running! She helped launch our pilot program last year, where outgoing 5th graders got complete a ceramics project. She also helped up us launch this year, so that ALL grade levels will get to complete a ceramics project.
