We learned a lot today during seventh grade demonstrations: how to tie-dye, Jamie jewelry, how to make pudding, how to make a yogurt parfait, and how to wrap a present were the demonstrations today.
It's that time of year again! Order your yearbook today! You can go to yearbookforever.com or purchase one through your school office. Get them while supplies last!
Over the past month, 7th grade students have been learning about various body systems and how they work together. Our final lab was a frog dissection. This hands-on learning enabled students to see how all the various systems connect up with one another and allowed us to compare and contrast the organ systems of a frog to a human. Students who opted out of the dissection were given a paper option, where they colored and constructed a paper version of a frog’s internal anatomy. This provided them with a similar experience within their comfort level. We learned so much!
Congratulations to Myles, an 8th grader, who was Conference CHAMPION in the long jump!! Way to make us Brookwood Proud! 🥇
Another slew of 7th grade demonstration speeches!
From pb&j to grooming a cat’s nails, seventh graders are demonstrating their special skills!

Greetings Brookwood Families!
We are excited to once again offer our school supply program, Brookwood Bundles. The teachers have thoughtfully prepared a school supply list for the 2022-2023 school year, and we are pleased to offer an opportunity to purchase these supplies right here from your school!
The grade level supplies will be gathered into convenient and easy-to-use bundles. They will include all of the supplies needed for the school year and will be ready and waiting for your child in their classroom on Open House Night in August. There is no need to brave the busy stores and worry if you’ll find all of the items on the list. Our team will take care of all the details so that you may enjoy your precious summer days!
The end of the school year is fast approaching and schedules are filling up quickly. Please take a moment out of your busy schedule to consider this opportunity. Each bundle purchased will help support our Families in Need school supply program. Thank you for your support!

3rd Grade Field Trip
Name: Wilderness Skills Outdoor Program
Location: Lake Geneva Ziplines and Adventures
Date: May 20, 2022
Time: 9am-1:45pm
Description: During the Wilderness Skills Outdoor Program, students will learn practical and fun wilderness skills. They will be going on a compass hike where they will put their navigational skills to the test to find hidden items. Students will try their hands at making traditional shelters using natural materials, they will learn about survival skills, and then they will finish with a game to test their new knowledge. Although we are going to LG Ziplines and Adventures, we will NOT be ziplining.
Saturday, May 7th is National Children's Mental Health Awareness Day - we will show our support of children's mental health by encouraging everyone to wear GREEN on Friday, May 6th.
Welcome to our incoming 4th grade families! Join us for an informational night: parent tour, presentation, and Q&A session.
