BMS is getting ready to host Fall Fest this weekend!! See you on Saturday from 12-3. Bring cash for raffle baskets, walking shoes for all the activities, and dress in your best costumes to win some amazing prizes!!!
Yesterday, both buildings celebrated Unity Day - students were excited to show one another and our community that they were standing up for kindness, inclusion and acceptance and that bullying is not okay. In guidance class students in K-3 have been learning about bullying and in classrooms yesterday students learned more about the three different parts of Unity Day (Kindness, Inclusion and Acceptance). Students will continue to learn about kindness, inclusion and acceptance throughout the coming months in guidance class.
We are SO thankful for our community partnerships. Thank you Chief Balog of the Genoa City Police Department for coming to speak to our 4K students during their study of different community helpers.
Get ready.....the Scholastic Book Fair is coming our way! YAY! Allowing students to choose their own books empowers and inspires them on their journey to becoming lifelong readers, AND—as always—every purchase at the Fair benefits our schools!
We are SO excited to share that the Fall Book Fair will be located at BOTH schools on October 25th and 26th. This allows an opportunity for our families to view books at both buildings during Parent/Teacher Conferences!
BES Book Fair Location: Library 4:00-7:30 pm
BMS Book Fair Location: Library 3:30-7:00 pm
Brookwood’s Family Engagement Team is proud to partner with the Book Fair to continue to promote the importance of literacy.

October is Bully Prevention Month - To show our commitment to teaching students the importance of kindness, acceptance and inclusion, as a way to prevent bullying, GCJ2 will be participating in Unity Day on October 18th.
On Unity day, all students and staff will be invited to wear the color orange as a way to show their commitment to kindness, acceptance and inclusion to prevent bullying.
