| Big BOOYA Thanks! |
|
 Thanks to everyone for helping with the BOOYA Toy Drive. Burr School collected 4 bags of toys and about 150 toys. Special thanks to Natasha Sharma, Martin Pleynet, Corey Gelb-Bicknell, and Brian Bobby for helping deliver the toys with Kelly Brown. The Newton firefighters were very impressed with the response. Everyone really made a difference in the lives of some children. The next BOOYA event will be creating a special mural to hang above Mrs. Albano's desk in the lobby. GO BOOYA!!!
