Please join your child during that time if you're able or you can send money with them to spend!  

COUGARS SERVE

A BIGthank you from the Community Outreach Committee to all who donated to our food and candy drive.  We also thank Student Council, Ashley Flurry, Caroline Springfield and Emilia Osorio for loading and delivering four SUVs full of food to Brookville Elementary.  The food will be distributed to Brookville families who otherwise may not have enough food over the holiday breaks.  

Coming Soon...HOLIDAY HELPERS!  Please watch your email for the opportunity to make the holiday season brighter for some of the students at Brookville.  Sign-up sheets will come out the week before Thanksgiving break.  Thank you for your generosity!

LOST AND FOUND

Last call to check the lost and found!  Any items remaining that are not labeled with a name will be donated to Brookville Elementary the week before Thanksgiving. Lost and found items are located outside of the gym.  

CRESTLINE CHARACTER TRAIT

Each month Crestline focuses on one character trait.  November's trait is CONTENTMENT.  Contentment is deciding to be okay with what we have.  The students will learn about contentment in counseling and the trait will be incorporated in their growth and learning.
