It's unlike us to miss a week of the Blast, so consider this week a 'double stuf.'
Congratulations to 4th grader Lillian Keller, whose writing will be published as part of the Young Writers Project "A Wander in the Woods" contest. Her work will be published on May 31, 2024. Congratulations Lillian!
Last week, Brookside celebrated Kindness Week with a variety of special activities each morning during arrival.
In addition, our staff was treated to a generous (and delicious) breakfast on Valentine's Day! Thanks to the PTO - what a treat!
Reminder: Vacation is 2/26-3/5. We will see you back to school on Wednesday, March 6!
Enjoy the break and stay active and healthy!
Sarah & Chris

COMMUNITY POSTINGS
Please note that the opportunities/events listed below are not specifically endorsed or screened by school staff. As always, families should use their own standards and review processes to determine appropriate activities.
Is your family interested in hosting international guests? A group of high-school aged students will be visiting Vermont from Burma for three weeks in May to learn about leadership and sustainability. PH International, a local nonprofit, seeks families who are willing to host these guests for a portion or all of their stay. All of the Burma visitors are proficient English speakers. Please contact (Drew Diemar at drew.diemar@ph-int.org) for more information.
The BPS and CBMS PTOs are excited to announce all the winners so far for the Calendar Raffle (1/28/24 through 2/20/24).
