Bucks for Brown is Looking Ahead
We are looking for a few more people to round out our Bucks for Brown committee. These roles would be in planning next year’s event and helping secure business sponsors for next year.
We also are looking for a couple of people who would be interested in heading up the spring picnic together. This year would be spent working with the current chair, and next year the new leads would take over.
If you are interested in either committee, please contact Sheri Baker or Kristen Bawks.
Most of our PTO events for the school year are already scheduled and can be
viewed here. If you would like to help with any of these events, you can indicate interest through our form here.
Save the date for these upcoming hybrid PTO meetings. We will meet in the media center as well as offer a virtual connection option:
February 15 at 7pm
March 15 at 12:15
April 19 at 7pm
May 17 at 12:15pm
End of the Day Dismissal Safety
We need your help to keep our students and staff safe at the end of the school day. If you are picking your child up at the 4th/5th grade area (Yukon Dr.), please be sure you are attending to the following important reminders.
*There is NO parking allowed in the bus or media center lots.
* DO NOT ask your child to walk to your parked car in a lot.
* If you prefer to park, please plan to use the office lot (off of Brown School Rd). There you can park and walk up the crosswalk to greet your child on the sidewalk - even if they are in 4th or 5th grade.
Thank you for your patience and attention to these guidelines. Keeping our students, staff, and families safe is a top priority.
Our Brown School classroom teachers have important information to share with our families. Please click on your child's class below to view weekly updates.
