Media Center News
Hi Brown School Families! This week is the last week that the students can check out books from the Media Center. In order to prepare for a book inventory, we need to have ALL books returned by the end of May. If your student has library books at home, please help them remember to return them ASAP. The first class to have ALL of their books returned to the MC will be announced on the BEST News. Also, the students will receive raffle tickets after they have returned ALL of their books to try to win a prize! Thank you so much for your help.

Annual Brown School Picnic
The annual picnic will be held on Wednesday, June 9th, in a COVID-friendly fashion. Students will still enjoy a hot dog lunch with their classrooms. While there will not be any of our traditional activities, the PTO will be providing cotton candy and sno cones. A few volunteer opportunities remain available (follow link). Please note that volunteering will not give you access to your students this year.

5th Grade Farewell
Attention 5th Grade parents! One of the Fifth Grade Farewell traditions is to have a display of baby pictures and guess who is who. Our goal is to include all of our fifth graders by presenting their baby picture and a recent picture. You can upload pictures here: Fifth Grade Farewell Baby Pics You can also email your pictures to sheribk@gmail.com The deadline to submit pictures is Friday, May 28!
We are also putting together a slideshow of our student’s pictures from elementary school. We are collecting pictures from all their years at school. (Photos do not have to be from Brown School if your child previously attended another school) If you have photos from past parties, field trips, Science Fairs, school plays, variety shows, track meets, etc.. that are of multiple students, we would like those as well. You can add them here: Fifth Grade Slideshow. Please contact Burke Lokey at BLokey@sjschools.org with any questions about the slideshow. The deadline to submit pictures is Wednesday, June 2!
