Finding Our Place at Brookwood!
BMS wrapped up the first week of school by bringing students together for a special Welcome Back Assembly focused on an important message: Everyone has a place at Brookwood!
We celebrated some of the amazing student artwork featured throughout our school materials this year.
We highlighted the many clubs, sports, activities, and opportunities available for students to get involved, try something new, and find where they belong.
And, of course, we had some fun! Students participated in games and challenges that reminded us that Brookwood is at its best when everyone contributes, supports one another, and helps others feel like they belong.
Whether it's in the classroom, on a team, in a club, or simply through the friendships we build, there are so many ways to find your place at Brookwood.
Find your place. Own your place. Help someone else find theirs.
We are excited for a great year ahead!

What a great night for Brookwood!
Thank you to all of our Brookwood families and staff who joined us for our fall McTeacher’s Night at McDonald’s!
It was wonderful seeing so many of our students and families come out to support Brookwood, spend time together, and have some fun outside of the school day.
Our staff jumped right in to help, our Mustang made an appearance, and even Mr. Lubus traded in his principal hat for an Apple Pie costume!
A big thank you to McDonald’s for hosting us and supporting our school. We are grateful for a community that continues to show up for our students and Brookwood!
Proud to be Mustangs!
