Letter from the Principal
Brookwood Family,
It was wonderful to welcome everyone back after Spring Break! Though the weather was occasionally dreary, the mood in the building was bright and energetic as we dove back in to learning and growing together.
The week started with the excitement of the eclipse, and ended with our Special Olympians returning victorious! In between, third grade had an amazing in-house field trip, experiencing life in the American colonies with everything from quill & ink drawings to making a whirligig!
Flowers also played a big role in school this week as staff received bouquets and students and parent volunteers spent Science class planting. Thank you to all who worked tirelessly to bring us the beauty of springtime!
Here are a few important reminders:
- Be sure you place your yearbook order by Monday, April 15th.
- Don't forget to show your appreciation for our Brookwood staff members next week!
- Don't forget to donate to our Exceptional Children's Week Fundraiser
Enjoy this beautiful weekend!
Love,
Mrs. Moity
