Every Friday is hat day at Briggs School. Students can wear hats on Fridays for 50 cents as part of an 8th grade fundraiser. Every Friday is also Pink Out day during the month of October for breast cancer awareness. Anya and Bella were styling in their pink hats yesterday. We thought this would put a smile on your face. Have a great weekend Briggs Family!

Would you like to help your child win a pizza party for their class? Impact Aid Survey forms will be sent home today. Each homeroom class that has 100% return rate by the deadline of October 10th will receive a pizza party!!!
You can become an active part of helping to provide funding for our school by simply filling out the survey. In the past, funds generated from Impact Aid have been used to assist in the construction of the gym, new softball field complex, new elementary building, football stadium, and the theatre/band room. Impact Aid funds were recently used to assist in the construction and renovation of the new Middle School and Lower Gym. Without Impact Aid funds, Briggs would not be able to undertake these construction projects. We hope you will take a moment to respond to the survey and return the form to the school as soon as possible.
We thank you in advance for your willingness to complete the Impact Aid Survey!

Football news:
Briggs Braves broke into the win column Thursday night with a 32 to 14 win over GrandView. After watching the 5th/6th grade team fall 38 to 0, the 7th/8th grade team jumped on the board first with Shaun Marrs scoring his first touchdown of the season. This would give Briggs the 6 to 0 lead. Jovanni Falcon put Briggs up 12-0 With a touchdown on a scramble, but the conversion failed. That would be the score at halftime after the Briggs defense stopped Grandview inside the 20 yard line. Grandview clawed back in it with a kick-off return to start the second half to make the score 12 to 6. Jovanni Falcon dazzled the crowd with a 72 yard touchdown run to make it 18 to 6 Briggs. Falcon would strip the ball on defense and race back with the fumble return for a touchdown to make it 24 to 6. Ozziel DeLa Hoya returned an interception 22 yards to shine on defense. Brayden Gruber scored on a 33 yard touchdown on a fourth down play from a pass by Jovanni Falcon. Josh Miegs, on a pass from Kane Rosas, converted the 2 points, to make it 32 to 6. Grandview scored late on a long pass after Ryker Jennings made the second interception of the night for the Braves.
