A heartfelt thank-you to our amazing event chairs, Gisselle Roberts and Swatie Jain, for their hard work and creativity. And a big shoutout to all the wonderful moms who volunteered their time and energy to make this event truly special!
This year, for the first time in a while, the PTA reintroduced the Room Parent Program. Room parent volunteers support and coordinate with teachers on an as-needed basis, helping to build a stronger bridge between classrooms and families.
As part of this initiative, classroom parties were also brought back. Students had a wonderful time at the winter party around the holidays, making fun crafts and enjoying juice and snacks provided by the PTA. It was a joyful way to celebrate the season and bring our school community together.
Our Moms’ Night Out at Miller’s Ale House was a wonderful opportunity for moms to take a well-deserved break from their busy routines and enjoy an evening of laughter, conversation, and connection. It was a relaxed and fun night where everyone had the chance to mingle, share stories, and simply enjoy each other’s company. Events like this remind us how special our school community is — full of supportive, inspiring, and fun-loving parents!
Trunk or Treat is always one of the most anticipated and fun events at Brooks! This year, we had more than 25 creatively decorated trunks, with teachers, parents, and local businesses coming together to hand out a wonderful variety of treats to our little trick-or-treaters. A big sout out to our event chair Jackie Rothar and her family for helping run this smoothly.
While the kids enjoyed going from trunk to trunk collecting candy and admiring all the decorations, parents relaxed with delicious churros, hot chocolate, and goodies from the food truck. It was a fantastic community event that brought everyone together for a night full of fall fun and sweet memories!
The outdoor classroom at Brooks is a wonderful addition to our campus and a meaningful way to honor our retired principal, Mrs. Terri Russell. This beautiful space stands as a tribute to her years of dedication and leadership.
A huge shoutout to Michael and his team for bringing this vision to life. This project cost the PTA nearly $21,000, thoughtfully budgeted and saved from funds raised over several years.
This new space will create countless opportunities for learning, exploration, and fun for our students. A heartfelt thank-you to all the parents and families who have contributed and who continue to support the PTA, making such valuable enhancements to our school possible.
Our school held a Fun Run this year as one of our major fundraising events for 2025–2026, and it was a huge success! Every student participated, making it a fun and memorable day for everyone. Thanks to the amazing support of our students, families, and community, we raised nearly $20,000. These funds will go toward new carpets for classrooms and new benches for the park. While we didn’t quite reach our goal for a new digital marquee sign, we’re setting aside funds to make it happen in the future. A big thank-you to all the families that donated and the PTA also sponsored icy popsicles for all the kids to celebrate their participation and hard work!
Walk to School Day is another beloved Brooks tradition that encourages students to start their morning with some fresh air, exercise, and fun! Many students arrive a little early to enjoy time with friends before entering the school through the back doors. Each participant receives a small trinket from the PTA as a fun reward for taking part. It’s a simple but meaningful event that promotes healthy habits and builds a sense of community among our students.

This year's PTA sign-up contest was a tremendous success, bringing in more memberships than we've seen in a long time! We’re so grateful to every family that joined and showed their commitment to supporting our school community and ensuring their voices are heard. We welcomed nearly 80 new families to the PTA this year, and every teacher at Brooks also paid their membership dues — a true show of unity and dedication.
To celebrate, the winning class at each grade level enjoyed a special pizza lunch! Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make this year’s membership drive such a great achievement
The Teacher Meet and Greet is always one of the most exciting days of the year, as students eagerly return to school after a long summer break.

To make the day even more enjoyable, the PTA treated every student to a refreshing icy popsicle — the perfect way to cool down on a warm summer afternoon. It was a wonderful start to a new school year, full of excitement, community spirit, and sweet smiles!
