Superstar families,
We had a great week here at Brook Park. The Grand Re-Opening event on Wednesday was wonderful! It was so nice to see so many of our families touring all of our different learning areas. Here are just a few important things coming up:
Lunchroom Update:
Our students really enjoyed transitioning back to the option of either the bench seating or the individual tables this week in the lunchroom!
SEL Blurb:
K-2: Kindergarteners, first graders, and second graders learned more about dealing with change this week. See the attachment for some strategies they explored.
3-5: Third, fourth, and fifth graders utilized their SEL time this week to catch up on missed lessons or review previous lessons.
Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week is May 2nd-May 6th.
As part of the festivities, we will be hosting a raffle with gifts for the staff. Please let us know if you would like to donate a gift card or basket. Gift cards from Target and local restaurants are always fan favorites.
If you would like to arrange a raffle prize pick-up or if you have any questions, the best way is to email Kim D'Albenzio- [email protected].
Community Offerings:
SEG will be presenting Disney Lion King Jr on May 18th and May 19th at Brook Park School. The doors will open at 6pm and the play will begin at 6:30 pm. The cost of admission is $5 at night but the students will all get a chance to see it during the school day. The S.E. Gross plays are always outstanding and we hope your family can join us for the play!
