Important Notice Regarding Internet Access

We are writing to acknowledge that some members of the Brooks Elementary community are currently experiencing internet outages caused by external service providers. This issue is impacting access to online learning for some of our families.

We understand this presents a challenge to NTI processes, and we sincerely appreciate your patience and flexibility as external providers work to restore service. At this time, we do not have an estimated time of resolution.

If your child is currently unable to access online learning due to an internet outage, please contact your child’s teacher directly as soon as possible. This communication ensures the teacher can make appropriate arrangements for missed instruction and assignments.

Thank you for your continued understanding.

Hi, families!

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and are staying warm! December is full of lots of excitement. This month, our focus will be on Empathy. When we can empathize, we are able to connect with others and understand how they are truly feeling.

Family Challenge: Choose one “10-Minute Tune-In Time” this week—phones away, full attention, child leads the activity.

This week's read aloud is A Chair for My Mother by Vera B. Williams. It is a heartfelt story about love, understanding, and caring for one another.

BES Families,

As we head into Thanksgiving week, I just want to say how truly thankful I am for you and your children. Thank you for sharing your kids with us every day, for your support, and for being our partners.

Please take a moment to read this week’s Bronco newsletter—it’s full of important updates, upcoming dates, and ways to stay connected during this busy season.

I’m grateful for our Bronco family and hope you all have a safe, restful, and happy Thanksgiving.

With appreciation,
Betty Jo Davis
Principal, Brooks Elementary School 🐴✨

Hi families,

As we finish our month on Gratitude, I want to thank you for all the ways you support your children and reinforce these lessons at home. This week, we’re reading Jabari Jumps by Gaia Cornwall and talking about how gratitude can show up in moments of bravery—being thankful for encouragement, for second chances, and for the people who cheer us on when something feels challenging.

I hope this week’s newsletter and discussion guide give you an easy way to continue these conversations at home. I’m grateful for our partnership and for the amazing work your students are doing every day. 💛

Warmly,
Mrs. Henry

Hi families! We have lot of important information in our newsletter this week! https://sites.google.com/bullitt.kyschools.us/broncobulletin24-25/bronco-bulletin?authuser=0

Hi, families!

Here is the week's Counselor Connection newsletter:

This week's read aloud is When Sophie Gets Angry--Really, Really Angry by Molly Bang.

Managing big emotions helps children make space for gratitude. When we breathe, pause, or take a break—just like Sophie—we can notice the good around us again. Helping kids move from frustration to calm teaches them that gratitude often returns once we feel grounded and supported.

Hi, families!

Here is this week's Counseling Connection Newsletter. We are continuing to learn about Gratitude and connecting it to our overall wellness.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aQWHTnEybIaUFYsn0kA2MJ2M8mRXaLTI/view?usp=sharing

Each week, I'm going to also be sending out a book that you and your student can read together that ties into that week's theme.

This week's featured book is The Color Monster by Anna Lenas. While you are reading together, talk about the different feelings the monster is experiencing and how we can be grateful for each of them -- even the ones that aren't always comfortable to experience.

Here's a link to the book being read aloud:
