Summer Reading Rewards

Over 80 students returned their summer reading lists and were treated to a party in the Media Center on Friday, August 26th. Mrs. Hammontree, who retired in May, returned to celebrate with us. Students received goody bags and were able to also select a special prize and choose a book to keep. In addition, fifteen students won door prizes when their tickets were drawn! Thanks to everyone for reading! Keep up the good work!

Off and Running

We are off to a great start this year! Every class at Brookwood Elementary visits the Media Center once a week for a lesson and to check out books. Pre-K and kindergarten students will begin to check out in a few weeks after completing lessons about responsible book care and learning about the library. All grades have been reviewing book care and learning the new check in/check out procedures that are in place this year. Third, fourth, and fifth graders have also practiced using Safari, our online card catalog. Students may also visit the Media Center to check out book anytime throughout the school day with the a pass from the classroom teacher.
