Miss Steward's & Mrs. Nolte's classes participated in a buddy reading time. Every Wednesday, a new crew from Mrs. Nolte's room will sign up to come over and read with the first and second grade!

Today, our kindergarten class celebrated International Dot Day! 🎨
We read the book The Dot and talked about how one simple mark can lead to something creative and wonderful. After reading the story, the students had fun creating and decorating their own unique dots.
We loved seeing each child use their imagination and creativity to make their own special mark!
As the book says, “Make a mark and see where it takes you!” ❤️

Mrs. Cundiff's Social Studies classes celebrated International Dot Day today. After reading "The Dot" we enjoyed lots of fun art with our wonderful volunteer Michelle Myers. We learned all about process art and created beautiful pieces of art.

Calling all Veterans! The Brussels Pep Club is looking to honor all veterans in our 2026 Homecoming parade on September 22nd starting at 6:30 pm. We will provide the vehicle, trailer, seats, and signage. All you have to do is show up, hop on, sit down, and enjoy the ride! If you know any veterans who would be interested in riding and being honored in our parade, please let Keishia Hartle (khartle@brussels42.net) or Camryn Klaas (2027cklaas@brussels42.net) know.

The 5th grade Social Studies class did a great job on their first projects. They researched their topic, took notes and organized their information to create their poster project. They then presented them to the class.
