Dear Brown Families, Valentine's Day at Brown: Tuesday, February 14 is Valentine's Day. Our generous Brown PTO will be providing an ice cream for each student during the lunch waves. Additionally, if you and your child want to give out valentines, we ask that you send one in for each member of the homeroom. Sharing valentines is optional. Visiting Author – Laura Schroff, the author of An Invisible Thread, will be at Brown on March 9th. Our staff have been reading parts of the book to students over the past few weeks and will continue reading until the author visit. Additionally, as part of our whole school initiative we are asking students to commit to an act of kindness while they join in book discussions in their homeroom classes. We will be posting the student pledges on our lobby bulletin board throughout the month of February. We encourage all families to consider how just one act of kindness can have a huge ripple effect into our community at large. Grade 5 Families: Today the Polson administration and guidance department will meet with our grade 5 students to begin the transition process to Polson. They will provide an overview for students and explain the electives and the course selection process. Have a great weekend! Thanks, Frank |
