We are excited to once again offer our school supply program, Brookwood Bundles. The teachers have thoughtfully prepared a school supply list for the 2023-2024 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 hassle-free 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!
Today, ten Brookwood Elementary students participated in the Elementary Forensics Competition in Williams Bay. The children chose their event and started practicing at the end of February. They practiced at home and during weekly practices. The students' events included retelling stories, reciting poems, a travelogue about Disney, and a demonstration on how to make balloon animals.
The Elementary Forensics Program is designed to give young students the opportunity to learn to address public audiences using a variety of speaking approaches. Participants learned how to write a speech, practiced and presented in front of their peers, and presented the speech in a competitive atmosphere.

In 7/8th grade photography class, students took a walk outside to photograph the daffodils in bloom. They also learned about why the daffodils were planted here at BMS. Here are a few of their photos and a brief history written by Mrs. Kanthack
about the planting of the daffodils:
The 911 Memorial Daffodils were planted from 2002 and 2019 by Brookwood Middle School 4th Graders.
They only bloom once a year in remembrance of 911 and the lives lost as well as firefighters and police, and those who served to help others.
The project has been going on for 20 years now, starting down at the elementary school. Fourth graders planted them from 2002 through 2019. Now, our 8th graders have taken on the honor of naturalizing with them. The color yellow represents peace among all of us inhabiting the world.
Because the bulbs are planted in the fall and weather the cold frozen ground only to pop up with such strength, “King Alfred Daffodils” were chosen to represent the resilience our country has during times of difficulty and uncertainty.
In 2011, the community came together and planted a bulb for every life lost and participated in a memorial service. Boy and Girl Scouts, 4-H, All of Brookwood School, the Garden Club and Master Gardeners along with the fire and police departments participated in the planting.
Here is your Brookwood Bulletin.
Have a wonderful weekend! Enjoy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zncxTHqoQ3I
