We enjoyed a lovely line in the hallway as two wonderful seniors eagerly served others during the Student Council's "WARM UP with HOT CHOCOLATE" event at lunchtime. ☕️
A big heartfelt thank you to Mady and Audrina for generously giving up their lunch to serve and bring warmth to others! 💙

🦅 Inside the Eagle’s Nest Our students have been busy learning, creating, and exploring in so many fun ways! 🧸 Kindergarten Kindergarten students are learning through play, building important social, problem-solving, and academic skills while staying engaged and having fun. 🪨 1st Grade First grade has been exploring rocks by weighing, labeling, and cleaning them. They are also strengthening their math skills using 10 frames and counters to build number sense. 📚 2nd Grade Second grade students have been sharing books with each other and growing their love of reading. They also enjoyed a library field trip as part of their local government study. First and second grades created some wonderful spring art projects that are brightening our halls! 🎨 3rd Grade Third grade has been working on test prep using Blooket, making practice engaging and fun. They also completed an Aztec art project, combining creativity with history and culture. We are proud of all the great things happening in the Eagle’s Nest each day! #TogetherWeRise

A huge thank you to Mr. Manker for visiting our Small Engines class. The students had the exciting opportunity to hear directly from a professional about his work with small engines and to ask their questions. We truly appreciate his time and insight! 💙

Opening Night Success! 🎭 Last night was opening night for the Annie musical put on by the Calhoun Entertainment Company, and we are so proud of the hard work and talent in our community. We would especially like to recognize some of our Brussels students who are involved in the production — Jordan Hartle, Summer Schneider, and Aubree Behrens. We are always proud to see our students sharing their talents, working hard, and being involved in our community. It takes courage, dedication, and a lot of practice to perform on stage, and we are very proud of you! If you have a chance, be sure to go out and support this wonderful community production. Tickets are still available. tickets are still available. Showtimes are Friday and Saturday 7 PM and Sunday afternoon at 2 PM at the Kampsville Gym. Great job, Jordan, Summer, and Aubree! Brussels is proud of you! **#TogetherWeRise

WELL... Last Thursday and Friday, Mrs. T. Long and Mrs. P. Long had the opportunity to attend the WELL Summit (Women in Education Leading and Learning) for school leaders. We learned so much, had the chance to collaborate with other educators, and did a little networking along the way. Opportunities like this are so valuable because they allow us to learn, grow, and bring new ideas back to our school and students. We are thankful for the opportunity to represent Brussels and continue growing as leaders so we can keep moving our district forward. Always learning. Always growing. #TogetherWeRise

SURPRISE, SURPRISE… LOOK AT THESE 🥧 We are definitely feeling the love at Brussels today! Carol Rose, one of our wonderful grandparents, surprised us with some of her amazing homemade pies. What a thoughtful and generous gesture! It’s acts of kindness like this that make our school community so special. We are so grateful for the support, kindness, and love that our Brussels family shows every day. Little surprises like this remind us how lucky we are to be part of such a caring community. Thank you, Carol, for the delicious treats and for making our day a little sweeter! ** #TogetherWeRise

The GOOD STUFF! 🥰
We are so lucky to have these fabulous ladies step in whenever we need extra support! Each time they walk through our doors, they bring positivity, care, and a whole lot of heart. At this point, we’d say they’re officially part of the Brussels 42 family! Thank you for all you do—we appreciate you more than you know! 💙🤍

THE GOOD STUFF... 💙🤍💙
A little reminder that there is so much good all around us—it often shows up when we least expect it. A GREAT BIG THANK YOU going out to Chad Baalman for the VERY thoughtful Amazon gift! Your generosity and support mean so much to me and our school community. You are truly a gem—and a proud Brussels Raider!

SO COOL!!! 😱
Our freshman students have been hard at work in their Intro to Technology CTE course—and the result is incredible! They designed and created a stunning epoxy river table, a premium furniture piece crafted from live-edge wood and epoxy to mimic a flowing river. These projects take time, precision, and creativity—and our students delivered!
Now here’s the exciting part: raffle tickets are available for $20 each! Don’t miss your chance to win this one-of-a-kind piece that would cost hundreds (even thousands!) in stores. Contact the school to purchase your ticket and support our talented students! 💙🤍

THE GOOD STUFF... 🎨
We were so lucky to welcome a special guest, an art expert, to Mrs. Cundiff’s classroom on Friday! Students got hands-on with clay, letting their creativity and imagination shine as they shaped their own unique creations. A big thank you to Mrs. Myers for making this such a fun and inspiring experience for our students! 💙🤍
