Free Activity Passes!

By Malia Schroeder

As of Tuesday, September 6, Superintendent Elstad sent an email to all parents stating that all Byron students in grades 6-12 will gain free entrance into all home regular season activities.  All Byron students in grades K-5 will gain free entrance into all home regular season activities provided they are accompanied by an adult.   This change is intended to increase our student participation in activities and continue our Byron Bear school spirit.

A huge thank you to our school board who recognized the value in increasing student participation at activities and helping to spread Byron Bear school spirit!  As the Activities Director, I have had multiple students tell me how "awesome" it is to be able to get into events for free.  We have seen an increase in our student attendance at football, soccer, and volleyball events so far! Go Bears!
