Join Us for Brookwood Middle School’s Empty Bowls Fundraiser!
Brookwood Middle School invites you to our Empty Bowls fundraiser on Wednesday, February 19th, from 4:30 to 6:30 PM. This special event is a community effort to raise awareness of hunger and support those in need.
For just $5 per person, guests can enjoy a simple meal of soup, bread, and dessert donated by community members and staff. All proceeds will go toward Loaves and Fishes Food Pantry, helping provide meals for those facing food insecurity.
Join us for an evening of food, community, and compassion. Together, we can make a difference—one bowl at a time!
Bowls and Spoonrests handcrafted by BMS students will be available to purchase. If you are interested in contributing to our event please contact tina.mohr@gcj2.k12.wi.us
Brookwood Elementary students have been working hard in Physical Education and Music class. The 2nd and 3rd graders put on a performance today for the younger students. The 3rd graders did a cardio drumming routine that they have been practicing in both P.E. and Music class. The 2nd grade students performed a call and response song called Che Che Kule. They accompanied themselves on the drums, xylophones, boomwhackers, and egg shakers. Way to go, Mustangs!
Last Friday, BES had so much fun kicking off this year’s Kids Heart Challenge! Alongside this year’s heart heroes, we’re learning about healthy hearts and life lessons like getting active, asking for help, resting well and being kind. BONUS: your student will get a free wristband for joining at http://www2.heart.org/goto/BrookwoodGenoaCity or using the AHA Schools app.
