Superstar Families,
This was a great week at Brook Park and we are so excited about all of the exciting events before the end of the school year. One of those events is a 4th/5th Grade Family Movie Night that will be held tonight in the MP Room (enter through Door #17) and we will be watching Space Jam 2. The doors open at 6:30 and the movie will start no later than 6:45.
There are a few important items before the weekend:
District 95 will be hosting our Annual Volunteer Appreciation Breakfast on Friday, May 13th from 7:30 am - 9:00 am in the Brook Park Multipurpose Room. This is our first appreciation breakfast in a few years so we are recognizing volunteers from 2019 to the present.
You can enter the building through Door #17 and please remember not to park on Harrison between 29th and 30th street because of bus drop-off.oiuy
We hope you can join us for a great breakfast and we thank you for volunteering!!!
