Today the 2nd grade classrooms welcomed Deputy Losinski in for a discussion on police officers. The 2nd graders are currently learning about jobs in our community and are looking forward to welcoming several guests from the community to learn from!



🚌 Today is Bus Driver Appreciation Day, and we’re giving a big shoutout to the amazing BRPS bus drivers who safely transport our students every day!
🚦💛 Your dedication, early mornings, and friendly smiles make a big difference.
THANK YOU for all you do! 👏


Congratulations to the 14 students in grades 1st-4th who had their artwork chosen for Art Attack 2025! We are fortunate to have so much talent here at Brookside Elementary!!











At last night’s Board of Education meeting, our incredible liaison officers were recognized for their outstanding service and unwavering commitment to the safety and well-being of our schools. These dedicated individuals play a vital role in building strong relationships between law enforcement and the school community, and we are grateful for everything they do to support our students, staff, and families.
In addition to being honored during the meeting, the liaison officers also led CRASE training during the board workshop. This training is part of our ongoing efforts to enhance preparedness and reinforce safety protocols across the district.
We are proud to work alongside such committed professionals who help make BRPS a safer and more supportive place to learn and grow. Thank you, Officers Torres and Losinski!
