Super Kids-Super Sharing
Brookwood is taking part in a Super Bowl project to help local children in need. It’s called Super Kids-Super Sharing. You can help by donating gently used or new items including:
Books
Sports Equipment
School Supplies
Games
We have teamed up with the National Football League, the Atlanta Super Bowl Host Committee, Verizon and Infinite Energy Center’s Forum for Super Kids-Super Sharing. Catch the Super Bowl Spirit and help others in our local community.
As we start the New Year, it’s a great time to donate those things which are awesome but not currently being used in your home. Maybe Aunt Suzy and Grandma both gave the same books this year. Please donate items that are new or gently used.
Our collection will begin January 8 -16.
Spelling Bee Classroom Winners
The winner of Brookwood's Spelling Bee will advance to the Forsyth County Spelling Bee, to be held on Saturday, January 26, 2019 at Denmark High School's auditorium from 9:00-11:00 a.m.
Good luck to all the contestants!
