Dear Parents,

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Mrs. Antonino is this year’s Crystal Apple Award winner at Brookside Elementary.  This award is much deserved. Mrs. Antonino is the facilitator here at Brookside and helps every single person with a variety of problems.  Mrs. Wirfs, Mrs. Antonino’s sister wrote here an amazing tribute. Here are just a few of those words. “Mrs. Antonino has an amazing work ethic in which she can get any job done quickly and thoroughly.  Not only can she do just about anything, but she teaches, guides, and mentos others along the way.”

Students and teacher wore their best ugly sweaters today.  There were some ugly sweaters. Tomorrow we wear our Christmas socks and donate gently used shoes.

Today Mrs. Andrews Fourth graders along with Mrs. Willis’ and Mrs. Pickering’s first grade classes at Brookside were the recipients of stories, activities and a little treat.  Ryan Hicks with some members of his team (Pam, Russell and Christine) from Intermountain Healthcare shared their time with the students as part of an ongoing service project that could bring STEM activities to our school.  Thank you IHC for your service to the community.

Brookside Student Council is excited to announce:  Brookside’s 2018 Christmas Spirit Week

In true Christmas Spirit, we are going to have dress up days along with a coordinating service day. This will take place the last week before Christmas break.

Jak Ellner worked extra hard and didn't show stress and even let a friend help, Zak Clegg helped a fellow classmate feel better, Reece Petersen is being a great example to everyone on how to be a good friend, Alex Morales is always working hard.

These first grade friends showed their Tiger Pride by cleaning up trash on the playground.
