Holocaust survivor Paula Weissman recently shared her story with students at Haltom High School. Ms. Weissman was the guest of BISD Trustee Kelvin Dilks. #WeAreBirdvilleISD appreciates Mr. Dilks and Ms. Weissman for expanding the students’ understanding of the Holocaust from the perspective of a Holocaust survivor.
Girls and coaches from the Academy at C.F. Thomas (ACFT) and Snow Heights Elementary recently participated in the Girls on the Run Fall 5K race at Lone Star Park in Grand Prairie.
Sally Frye is the head coach at Snow Heights, and Elizabeth Shier is the head coach at ACFT. ACFT has had a Girls on the Run team since fall of 2010. This was Ms. Shier’s 21st 5K with the ACFT Girls on the Run team. ACFT has girls participating now who were babies when their sisters participated, and the alumni always come back to visit. Check out www.gotrdfw.org for more information about Girls on the Run.
Both coaches were happy to have amazing BISD girls and families participate this year.
