Dear Parents,

Congratulations to Ms. Stallworth on being named out teacher of the year. We are so excited to have her represent our school at the district level. Thanks to all the parents that attended the area board meeting either virtually or in person. This was a great introduction to our new superintendent, Dr. Watts.

Please join us this afternoon at the Brookwood homecoming parade. The parade begins at 5:00 at the high school. Ms. Stallworth and I will be riding the cluster float and handing out candy.

We have a busy week coming up. Tuesday is Dogwood Pizza night. Wednesday is Girl Scout roundup. Thursday is the School Council meeting.

Come out and support our school on Tuesday for Dogwood Pizza night. A portion of every order comes back to the school. The class with the most students that attend, wins a pizza party.

Is your child interested in joining Girl Scouts? If so, come to the school Wednesday night at 6:30 for an informational meeting.

Thursday, September 23 at 6:00 is our first School Council meeting. This is an open meeting, and all are welcome. The agenda can be found on our website. This meeting will take place in person in the cafeteria. There will be time at the end of the meeting for parent questions or concerns. Masks are required. We hope to see you there.

Have a great week and don’t forget to read every night.

Digital Students will have the opportunity to come to the school to be photographed on October 27th for the yearbook. During our first picture day, there were no slots available to allow for this opportunity. Please also make sure that you are taking part in our monthly yearbook competitions so that you may be featured more than once in the yearbook! I will let you know the available times to come let your smile shine as the date draws nearer.

We have an opening in our MOID Special Education class for a paraprofessional. If you are interested, please apply through Gwinnett County's Applitrack and attach your application to job 73664. Become part of our wonderful team!
