Brookside

Elementary

Mission Statement : All Brookside students will learn in a caring, nurturing environment.

Points of Pride:

  • Our annual Fall Fest where we invite Brookside families to come and enjoy dinner and outdoor fall activities.
  • "Hands on Economics" by third, fourth, and fifth graders - third graders developed assembly lines and created cars, fourth graders produced goods and sold them to Brookside customers, and fifth graders earned Hackett money to spend on materials to create a good or service to sell to their classmates.
  • Our Student VIP Wall where each student received a VIP award during the school year which gets hung up on our hallway walls for all to see.
  • Our walking club logged more than 1,000 miles during the school year.  Students walk during our morning and afternoon recesses.
  • Our Safety Patrol which has served for over 20 years, through wind, rain, sleet, and snow with no accidents or injuries.
  • Brookside is supportive of local food pantries by donating hundreds of cans of food for needy families.
  • Our "March is Reading Month" centered around poetry.  Our second grade students had their annual "Poetry Tea" to culminate the month long activities.
