Thanksgiving Food Drive
The Brookwood Elementary Trek Leaders are supporting The Place and their efforts to provide food for members of our community this winter.
What: Cake Mix and Icing
When: November 5-9
Where: Brookwood Elementary Food Drive collection boxes
located in the main hallway.
Fun Fact: If every student at Brookwood Elementary donated one box
that would be over 1,000 boxes of food to help feed families in our community!
We are also asking families to bring cake mix and icing in with them for Bingo Night
Veterans Day at Brookwood
On Monday, November 12, we will be celebrating Veterans Day at Brookwood. We look forward to honoring United States Veterans and current service members beginning at 8:00 a.m. with a breakfast, choral performance, and the “Parade of Heroes” . After the parade is concluded at 9:30, your family veteran may choose to visit in your child's classroom. Please discuss classroom arrangement with your child's teacher. Veterans and service members may also choose to have lunch with their family member who attends Brookwood on the stage. Remember, these events are for the United States Military as this is a National holiday. The excitement is building here at school as we get ready for this festive annual event!
If you have a participant for our Veterans Days celebration, please remember to send in your completed tear-off sheet with the veteran's information.
If you have photos of United States Veterans you would like to send in for our hallway display, please complete the “Honoring Our Hero” template, copy your precious photo and send the copy on the template.
We would like to have all “Honoring Our Hero” templates and participant tear off sheets by Wednesday, November 7. Thank you so much for your cooperation in meeting the submission deadline!
We are asking students to wear red, white, and blue on Monday, November 12. Thank you so much for your consideration!
