Dear Brookside Families,
As the last few weeks of summer come and go, I want to welcome you and your family back to school! I hope you are having an amazing summer full of fun family activities and adventures. Our faculty and staff are working hard to get everything ready for an incredible year ahead.
In just a few short weeks, our halls and classrooms will be buzzing with the excitement of students eager to meet their new teacher and reunite with their friends. I look forward to seeing the smiles and hearing the stories of summer adventures as everyone returns to school.
This newsletter is packed with important information that I hope you will find helpful as you prepare for the upcoming school year. As always, feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions.
Looking forward to an amazing year together!
Ms. Grant
Principal
School Starts for ALL Kinder - 5th Grade Students on August 14th!
We're excited to welcome our Kindergarten - 5th grade students back to school on Wednesday, August 14. Our doors will be open starting at 8:45 am. Breakfast will also be served beginning at 8:45 am, and school will start at 9:15 am.
To kick off the new school year, we will continue our "Red Carpet Welcome" event. Admin, faculty, and staff will be outside the front doors cheering on our students as they enter the building. You are welcome and encouraged to come and take pictures of this special moment!
We look forward to seeing you and your child on the first day of school!
Class Placement
Starting Monday, August 5, you can view your child's class placement in Infinite Campus. To do so, simply sign in to your parent portal to see the teacher assignment.
Class placement is always a delicate task that we take very seriously. At the end of the last school year, our teachers collaborated to thoughtfully divide students into classes for the upcoming year. They ensured that each class is balanced based on academic needs, behavioral needs, gender, and other factors.
Rest assured, your child is set up for a positive and successful year ahead!
Each year, we kindly ask for a $25 donation per child to support our school. This donation is used in various ways throughout the year to directly benefit your child/children.
To donate, please log in to your Infinite Campus portal and click on "Fees." From there, you can choose the amount you would like to donate. Alternatively, you can visit the office during office hours to make your donation in person. Please note that there is a small processing fee for in-person transactions.
You might be wondering what the donation money is used for. A large portion of the funds is allocated directly to each grade level teacher. These funds are used for:
Supplies and materials to support curriculum and lessons
Class parties and activities
Field trips
Other needed classroom items
Your generous donations help ensure that our teachers have the resources they need to provide an enriching and supportive learning environment for your child/children.
Thank you for your continued support!
