Happy Wildcard Weekend!! If there was ever a moment when you doubted whether or not the Brooks were true Packer fans, we cleared up any doubt today. We also provided many smiles for our fellow shoppers. I told my son I want him to wear this more often because everyone got such a kick out of it. The game is on right now, so there is a lot of excitement (and yelling) in our household. Eeek. 

In more relevant news, we had a great week back at Westbrook. The kids were so excited to see their friends and teachers. It warms my heart to see so much joy at school. In addition, he teachers did not waste any time getting right back to where they left off. I was able to see so much learning and engagement, too!! There is nothing better! 

I do have a lot of things to share with you today! 

We are busy creating our FIRST Westbrook Yearbook! It is so exciting! The best part is we are having a cover contest where our students get to create the first cover. Please see above for the details and remember to include our yearbook theme: "Our Story Begins..." in the design. 





Order your yearbook NOW!! I promise your child will want a yearbook. This is the first Westbrook Yearbook ever!!! Please order it now😊 


Art Class: Playful Mind Academy is offering another session of art class after school. Just email them and let them know you are interested. They will guide you through the rest. Playful Mind Academy has been wonderful and the kids love the classes they offer!

  Well, Hello March! I cannot believe March is upon us. The rest of the year is absolutely going to fly by. It is nuts! The kids have grown so much this year and made so many friends. It is going to be hard to part for summer, but I am not even going to think about that yet! There are too many things to do before we get there.  Read Across America Week: This is going to be a fun week. It is 'Read Across America Week' at Westbrook. We have dress up days and fun activities planned for the week. See the picture above for our dress up days. It is going to be a lot of fun!  Parenting Tips: One of the best things you can do for your child is to allow them to come up against a challenge and work through it. I know it may sound like I am repeating myself, but it is because we are seeing a trend in our students. Many of our students lack the coping skills to navigate through a tough situation. Of course, it is easier to avoid meltdowns and blow outs by preventing them for our ch...

Happy Sunday, Families! In true Westbrook style, we are finishing the year with a bang! Our First Responders Day was absolutely amazing and there were so many of our parents participating! What a gift! I don't think I will surprise anyone when I say I think it will be even bigger next year!  This image is funny because A) we are almost at the end of the school year and B) I will be on you about parking lot procedures next year, too!! 😂 Field Day: Field Day is this Wednesday! It is going to be so fun. This is not an event where parents can come watch, but you can definitely come help! There are a few spots left.  Sign up here: Field Day Volunteers.  Yearbooks: Our yearbook have arrived! There were not many orders but the good news is you can still order a yearbook. I will be sending an email on Tuesday with information about hoe to do that. If you did order one, your child will get their yearbook soon. We are dividing them up now. We have learned some lessons about shar...
