What a beautiful evening for the Feast & Fortune Dinner and Silent Auction — an exciting event filled with great energy, strong community support, and generous fundraising for our students’ CEO projects! This event truly succeeded because of the incredible collaboration between CEO students, their supporters, and their dedicated director, Jennifer Sellers.
A special SHOUT OUT to Brussels High School students Leila Schulte and Summer Schnieder, who are growing their skills and confidence as future entrepreneurs through this program. We are so proud of your hard work and commitment to learning! Big thanks to Mrs. Johnes for her support and for capturing the memories!
Here’s to ALL STUDENTS' continued success! 💙
National Honor Society Induction Celebration was held on Monday evening, an event that recognizes students who exemplify the four pillars: Scholarship, Service, Leadership, and Character. These pillars represent more than achievements — they reflect dedication in the classroom, commitment to helping others, the courage to lead, and the integrity to do what is right.
Each of our new inductees has earned his/her place through hard work, compassion, and a genuine desire to make a positive impact in our school and community.
We proudly welcomed Camryn Klaas, Alex Friedel, Jordin Garcia, and Summer Schneider, as our newest members.
Our outstanding current members — Mady Nolte, Leila Schulte, Audrina Pohlman, and Dylan Droege — led a beautiful ceremony, presenting the four pillars and lighting candles to symbolize the values at the heart of NHS.
We extend our gratitude to Mrs. Johnes, whose leadership, guidance, and encouragement continue to inspire these students to excel.
Congratulations to all! We are incredibly proud of you and the bright futures you are building. 💙
Mrs. Smay is sunshine multiplied by three. She arrives each day with a warm smile, an encouraging word, and unwavering support for both students and staff. If you ask her for help, she’s the first to say, “You betcha—when do I start?” 😊 Our students know her well from recess, transition times, and writing support, and we are incredibly fortunate to have a retired, certified teacher serving as a paraprofessional—bringing exceptional expertise, a calm presence, and a heart full of joy to Brussels Elementary. She is, without a doubt, pure SUNSHINE. 💙

Mrs. Katzenberger may be one of our culinary specialists, but she serves up far more than great food—she brings the spirit. Her enthusiasm shines through the cafeteria every day and was on full display during Halloween week. She’s always willing to dress up, laugh, step outside her comfort zone, and create magical moments for our students—and for her colleagues, too. 🪄 Seeing her smile in the food line brightens everyone’s day. Her willingness to jump in and help at every turn is exactly what makes her the true Queen of School Spirit. 💙

Mrs. Gilbreth is nothing short of superhuman. Serving as Brussels CUSD’s social worker and guidance counselor, she does it all—supporting students, supervising, implementing programs, overseeing social-emotional curriculum, sponsoring a class, promoting kindness, teaching vital life skills, and countless other tasks that strengthen our school community. Her dedication, compassion, and expertise make an extraordinary impact. 🥰 We are deeply grateful for all she brings to Brussels. We are truly blessed to have a real-life superhero among us. 🦸🏻♀️

We’re asking for your help to complete our Profile of a Graduate project! 🙏🏻
We currently have 65 responses, but many more graduate photos are displayed throughout Brussels High School. Our goal is to gather information for everyone, and we can’t do it without you. Please take a moment to share this with Brussels graduates or anyone who might be connected to them.
Your support helps celebrate our rich school history—thank you! 💙

We also kindly ask that families avoid parking along the fence by the elementary playground. Keeping this area clear helps ensure a smooth and safe flow of traffic during busy times.
We know waiting for buses can take a moment, and we appreciate your patience. Thank you for helping us keep our school street safe for everyone. 💙

🏀 OPEN GYM WITH COACH DAN — THIS SATURDAY! 🏀
Looking for a fun and active start to your weekend? Coach Dan is opening the Brussels Gym this Saturday from 10:00–11:30 AM for any Brussels/SMS students grades 1-6 who want to come shoot around, get some practice in, and burn off some energy! We will work to get waivers completed for Calhoun students to be able to participate next time. If you are a Calhoun parent and your student is interested, please contact Pam Long @ plong@brussels42.net
We planned the time early so families can still head out and cheer on the Warriors at the football game afterward. It’s a great way to kick off a busy fall Saturday!
Bring your sneakers, your hustle, and your Eagle spirit!
Together We Rise! 🦅✨
ATTENTION SENIORS and SOPHOMORES: We are excited to welcome our Jostens representative, Mr. Ken Duffy, to Brussels High School tomorrow. He will meet with sophomores and seniors, sharing information and a packet featuring class rings for sophomores and graduation caps and gowns for seniors. 💙
Let’s hear it for the Scholastic Club! 🧐Nearly half of our school is competing—how awesome is that? They started the season strong with one win and one loss, and they’re just getting warmed up. With hard work, teamwork, and Raider pride, there’s no limit to what they can achieve. 💙
Keep shining, Raiders Scholars! 🌟 #togetherwerise
Stopped by the Brussels High School gym today, and it was SO incredible to see it full of energy again — the Eagles Girls Basketball team hard at work! 🏀Huge thanks to Coach Hillen and Coach Tepen for bringing basketball back to Brussels and giving these athletes a chance to shine. ✨The spirit, teamwork, and determination in that gym prove the Eagles are soaring higher than ever! 🦅 #togetherwerise
