What a great day to be a Mustang! BMS held a spirit assembly to celebrate our the boy's basketball team and cheerleaders! The boy's basketball team went head to head against some of our male staff members in a tough game that went into overtime! Way to play hard, Mustangs!!!

Our young scientists tested water quality during the Science on Saturday program! Water was collected from various places around the school, Nippersink Creek, and snow banks. After testing these samples, the scientists swept a section of the parking lot, added water to dissolve any chemicals in what was collected, and then tested it. Hint...the salt was off the charts! When the snow-ice melts, the salt is left behind to wash into the drain. This water is never filtered and eventually makes its way to the creek. The scientists brain-stormed ways to improve this for the environment then made t-shirts supporting water conservation. Our last session is on Saturday, February 24th from 10-11:30am at Brookwood Middle School - door 5 For more information contact Mrs. Kanthack at MaryEllen.Kanthack@gcj2.k12.wi.us

Thanks to the Village of Genoa City, Brookwood students, and volunteers -- the 1st Annual School Forest Night Hike was a success! Families and individuals enjoyed the forest slightly lit up by recycled luminaries that were decorated by the students. At the end of the hike -- on the Tom Holden Trail was hot cocoa, snacks, and a warm fire! A few families took advantage of the park's playground as well! The forest was beautiful and the company was even better! We hope to see more people next year!

Students in Ms. Mohr's 7th grade social studies class have been learning about the Revolutionary War. Ms. Mohr paired up with Mr. Guth to create an active game in the gym where spies ran across the gym -- trying not to get caught -- so they could deliver a coded message regarding the war. Can you decode the messages?

The District is truly thankful for support of our families and community. Earlier this week, a group of volunteers on the community Readiness Team joined to work as a part of the Design Team on compiling the beginning looks to our Portrait of a Mustang. The work is going to be brought back to the students and staff for feedback and edits to ensure all parties have a say in this work to ensure all Mustangs are career, community,…life ready.

Today, our 8th graders had the opportunity to tour Badger High School in preparation for next year! They learned about everything Badger offers, both academically and extracurricularly, and there is something for everyone! Students left feeling excited for their next step & prepared with some ideas on the classes they plan to take. They’re looking forward to tomorrow when the Badger academic counselors will visit Brookwood to prepare our students for the registration process. A representative from athletics will also be here to talk about all of the opportunities available to students at Badger. Please ask your child to share how their experience went!

The 7th and 8th grade band had the opportunity to travel to Badger yesterday! They worked on prepared music with other middle school students from LGMS and played with the Badger Wind Ensemble students. Together, they worked on musical concepts such as articulation, dynamics, and attention to detail. It was also wonderful to see some Brookwood alumni in the high school band! What a great morning of music!
