To celebrate, one student will win the GRAND PRIZE – a brand new bicycle! The winner will be drawn randomly by the Chick-fil-A manager from all receipts submitted on May 6. It’s a win-win opportunity – you don’t have to cook AND you raise money for programs at your child’s school. What’s not to love? Remember to write your child’s name, grade and teacher on the back of your receipt and place it in the box to be eligible for the prize drawing. We look forward to seeing you there!

~ OLD CD or DVD DRIVE

Barksdale’s 5th Grade Students need old CD’s or DVD’s to use as part of a 5th grade graduation project! They need not be functional as they will be used as supplies for crafts and decorations for the end of year party.

If you have any to donate, please send them to school with your child and put them in the “CD DROP BOX” at the hallway entrance to each grade level.

Thank you for your support!
