Sharing YOUR Greatness!
We ask our Brookwood families to share with us things our Brookwood students are doing outside of school so we can share in your greatness and how #MustangProud we are of your accomplishments!! If you have something to share....email it to Mrs. Xiong at Helen.Xiong@gcj2.k12.wi.us
Our next sharers of greatness span across our district with Caiden who is a 4th grader at BMS and Cody who is a 3rd grader at BES. Both of these students play for the 4th grade Junior Badgers Basketball Team. They are both great teammates, are hardworking, and are determined to give the best to get better for themselves and their team.
Prior to break, they participated in the Badger Basketball Tournament where they lost a hard fought Championship game. They came in 2nd out of 8 team are earned the 2nd place medal for the tournament. They continued to be dedicated to their studies and their extra curricular activities.
Way to make us #MustangProud, Caiden and Cody!! Keep working hard and playing hard.

Before break, 8th grade scientists had the pleasure of a guest therapist, Stacey Seacord-Peters, in who taught them about the use of Tibetan bowls to help them see and feel how sound waves move through crystal or brass. They enjoyed the relaxing tones and playing with various bowls, reviewing standards they had learned hands on, and making water bubble or ripple and ping pong balls bounce.
This was the capstone of their sound unit. How fortunate we are to have community members who are willing to share their knowledge and expertise in science to our students!

While the forecast is calling for limited snowfall, the wind and bitter cold will be creating a dangerous environment starting Thursday late morning and continuing through Saturday. We are very concerned about having students and staff out on the roads at dusk under these forecasted conditions. We considered an early release in the middle of the day, but felt it would create a bigger burden for parents as we have never done that before. In addition, we wanted to give ample notice so parents could arrange childcare if needed.
For those reasons we are announcing that we will be closing school on Thursday December 22nd. Please stay safe and enjoy the time with your family and friends.
4th graders experienced what an Early Wisconsin Gathering would be like. They played games like marbles, jacks, pick up sticks, and tiddlywinks. After that they got to taste some of the food that early Wisconsinites would have enjoyed. They feasted on wild rice soup, cranberry muffins, different cheeses, apples and oranges and enjoyed wassil, as drink from apple cider and cranberry juice. They also got to taste ribbon candy and other old fashion candies. To end the afternoon, they had to search for a stocking filled with fruit and candy. It was a fantastic day!!
Thank you to all those that donated monies, clothing, time, and well wishes to our Families in Needs Program. We also wanted to give a huge thank you to the community members of Lakeland Community Church for delivering and donating 65 breakfast bags towards this program as well. We are so fortunate to have the supporting community groups continue to lift up our schools and students. Thank you. Thank you. Thank YOU!!
Don’t forget that tonight is the BMS Winter Concert which starts at 6:30pm at BMS.
