James F. Byrnes High School

How appropriate that we post this just as the last custodian of the day locks up the building for the night! It has long been said that we cannot do what we do with and for our students without YOU! We would like to extend our appreciation to our custodial staff today and everyday! We are thankful for: Lizzy, Bernard, Ray, Henry, Chrisandra, Maritza, Mitch, Christine, B.J., Gayle, Mike, Dean, Jamika, Wendy, Johnny Mae, Ann and Tammy! We APPRECIATE YOU!!

Free Art Friday was BACK on Friday last week! Students and staff should be on the lookout throughout the day on the last Friday of every month this semester (after first period) for free art throughout the school. If you are new to free art, The Free Art Movement is an international movement where artists leave their art around public spaces for others to remove and keep. We have made some art clubs during flex for a variety of interested students of all levels to create some themed art every month to be placed around the school the last Friday of every month! The art will be 'hidden' throughout the school for staff and students to pick up, take with you and enjoy! If it's got a 'Free Art Friday' tag, it's YOURS! Each month the students will pick a theme to base their artwork. September's theme was favorite cartoon characters or superheroes and October's theme is fall-related. Follow last month's finds @byrneshighart on Instagram!
