THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU to all our parents and staff who contributed to our Coin Race Fundraiser this year. The excitement and competition that surrounded this event was immeasurable. As a school, we raised just over $9K and met several of our goals with this fundraiser. After our expenses associated with this fundraiser (pizza parties for winning classes, indoor recess games for classrooms and other administrative costs) the PTA will be purchasing several new indoor recess bags that will include fun, new and interactive games for our kids to play during days they cannot go outside, as well as a new multi-purpose couch for our LMC, which will serve the school for many, many years to come.

Congratulations to Mr. Whyte's 4th Grade class for being our top point earning class and securing the grand prize of completing a Victory Lap scooter lap ride around the school. Please see the image below for our top grade level pizza prize party winning classes.

On Friday, May 24, over 50 graduating seniors marched through the halls of Brooks celebrating their graduation from high school in the place where it all began for them, in our first annual Senior Walk!

These 50+ seniors were all attendees of Brooks during their elementary school years.

It's amazing to see how far they have come since their grade school days. The whole school enjoyed congratulating them with a clap out as they paraded through the halls!

What an awesome turnout we had for our annual Family Fun Fair! A huge thank you goes out to PTA Board VP Jamie Staab for organizing the FFF and to our FFF Committee for stepping up to help. Everything came together in what was an awesome night of fun and community gathering with flawless execution. Thank you to our key contributors; carnival game management (Veronica Albright), concessions (Jason Lundstrom), silent auction (Katie Vertenten and Brad Mital), prize redemption (Barb Romero), volunteer coordination (Swati Jain), decorations (Giselle Roberts), entertainment (Jamie Staab), business sponsorships (Jamie Staab & Michael Jackson), funds management (Bridget Palmer & Katie Vertenten) and to our parent volunteers who helped run the event through the night. To make these events a success it takes a village of support, so please consider volunteering for future events which helps the committees plan effectively! 

As part of a Teacher Appreciation Week Team Building Challenge, Mrs. Julie South completed a successful challenge to write an email to invite Mayor Irvin to visit Brooks during Teacher Appreciation Week! Mayor Irvin came and honored several of our awesome Brooks Teachers last Tuesday, May 7, for their hard work in growing the minds of our children!
