A healthy, hot lunch program is coming to Brown! The Lunch Mom is piloting a hot lunch for Grades 4-6 from Oct. 1st until the Winter Break. If all goes well, Grades 1-6 will be offered the hot lunch program starting in January. Many thanks to Tricia at www.thelunchmom.com for the generous donation of a hot lunch for Grades 1-6 on Friday, May 24th which was provided as a free trial for the Brown School students. Not only did the trial help to ensure the pilot will run smoother in the fall, it raised money for Brown. Look for more details in September!
Garden Fete
Thank you to the hundreds of Brown School parents, guardians and grandparents who volunteered their time to make Garden Fete extraordinarily successful this year. We think the extra hour worked well, and even though the event was more tightly packed this year due to the limited space available, we thought the event had a festive air which was reminiscent of a county fair.
Garden Fete was made possible by the Garden Fete planning committee, which included Laura Chorneyko, Marie Claude Sutton, Jennifer Baldachin, Nick Bibassis, Mariyan Ianev, Connie Dingle, Christy Kaiser and Armin Fischer, as well as by Peter and the rest of the custodial team, and by Principal Christakis and Vice Principal Litner. Special thanks go to the Baldachin Family, Kelly Shaw, Steve Thuringer, Hannah Thresher, Daniel Ho, Jeff Goldman, Maya Bartram, Norm Brownstein, Krasi Nikodimova, Tyler Ellis, Amanda Levey, Lisa Bernstein, Elizabeth DiGrazia, Jenny Bibassis, Currie Ross, Dave Shaw and Maggie Lane.
Thanks for a Great Year
As the mercury rises and the lazier days of summer beckon, we wish to thank the tireless volunteers at Parent Council, the teachers, the Office, and all the rest of staff, as well as the many parents who help out either a few hours a year or a few hours a month, for all their volunteer time. Your contributions ensured that our fantastic programs continued this year under unusually difficult circumstances or were initiated for the first time. We are proud to be Co-Chairs of this extraordinarily engaged school council which provides an opportunity for parents to connect and contribute their myriad talents, energy and skills to enrich the experience of our children at Brown.
We have some positions that need to be filled for the upcoming school year so please let either Jenifer or Nina know if you are interested in becoming more involved in Council or are interested in taking on a new role.
Parent Council Meeting – Thursday, June 13th, 7:00 p.m.
The last Parent Council Meeting of the school year will take place on Thursday, June 13 at 7:00 p.m. in the Library. All parents and guardians are welcome to attend.
Have a wonderful summer!
Jenifer Glover and Nina Moritsugu, Co-Chairs
