Letter from the Principal
I can't think of a better way to make it through a week with a full moon then to have an entire week full of Awesomeness! With the weather forecast not in our favor, we had to pivot! Our amazing PTO and the team from Step It Up made quick adjustments to fill the gym and cafeteria with inflatables and games! Our students and teachers were able to have the Day of Awesomeness, which culminated our fall PTO fundraiser. We are very grateful for the support from our families, friends, and community.
Today's Veteran's Day ceremony was the perfect way to show tribute to those who have selflessly dedicated their lives to serving our country. Our students invited veterans to have breakfast, participate in a parade, and enjoy a ceremony in their honor. The entire Brookwood family of students and teachers lined the halls holding signs of gratitude and exuding so much pride! It was an experience I know we will never forget. The scouts led us in saying the National Anthem, Mrs. Nestor's second grade class recited poems and the Brookwood Chorus performed. It was an emotional and memorable experience for all! Be sure to thank a veteran today...and every day!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Moity
