Blossomwood Elementary School

April 19, 2024

Dear Blossomwood Families,

What a fun time to be at Blossomwood! First, ACAP testing is going really well, and we will be finishing strong this week! A great attitude and effort will be important. Second, our students and teacher enjoyed the recent eclipse event together, Third, we learned recently that our school will be receiving multiple awards from the Alabama Council of PTAs! Fourth, one of our teachers, Ms. Shannon Williamson, was named the 2024-25 District 8 Elementary Teacher of the Year which makes her a finalist for the Alabama Teacher of the Year Award that will be announced in May!

Thank You to Limbaugh Orthodontics

We would like to thank Limbaugh Orthodontics for providing free, safety-approved eclipse glasses for our students to view last week's eclipse. It was both a thoughtful and generous gesture from one of our community partners! Our children and employees really enjoyed the opportunity to share the experience at school.

Thank You to the Blossomwood Garden Club
