Brockbank Elementary had some very special visitors come to our school for Veteran's Day. We are so proud of all of our veterans and enjoy having them come and talk to us each year. The program consisted of the fifth-grade students singing a patriotic song, a slide show presentation, and each of the veterans introducing themselves and talking to the students. It was a very touching assembly reminding us all why veterans are so important and about all the sacrifices that they have made for us so that we can be free.

Tuesday, October 18, the kindergarten students at Brockbank Elementary spent the day at Cornbelly's Corn Maze at Thanksgiving Point.

Brockbank kindergarten students really appreciate the Herbst family for allowing them to come and enjoy the day!

Recently sixth-grade students from Brockbank Elementary had the opportunity to visit the BYU Planetarium.  Before they went into the planetarium, students enjoyed experimenting with the demonstrations and gadgets that are throughout the lobby of the Eyring Science Center.  During the presentation at the planetarium,the sixth-grade students were amazed and intrigued by the information they were given and the different objects that they were shown in the night sky.

Brockbank third graders were thrilled to receive dictionaries donated by Central Bank recently. Glen Roach is a part of the Spanish Fork Rotary Club. The Rotary Club has a goal of placing a dictionary in the hands of every third grade student. Each student put his/her name in the dictionary and is encouraged to use it during classwork and also at home. Mr. Roach has sponsored Brockbank Elementary for several years and we appreciate his continued support of our students. Third graders look forward every year to his visit and the dictionaries he brings.
