Recently Brockbank students enjoyed a fun eventful Pop into Reading Party. It was for those students who read more than 960 minutes over the summer. We were so proud of their efforts! The majority actually read well over a thousand minutes. There were relays, and all kinds of bubble and balloon activities. As well as "popping" activities there were enjoyable treats popcorn, pop, Popsicles and tootsie pops. The kids loved it and we loved providing it for them.

Hello, Brockbank Families!

We want to thank all those who were able to make it to our Chick-Fil-A-Family Night!  It was fun to see so many families there to support our school!  Our second family night will be Monday, October 17th.  

Brockbank was so excited this morning to have Superintendent Rick Nielsen visit our school! He walked through the halls and visited each classroom. He does so much for our district and all of us. We were honored to have him take time out of his busy schedule to come and visit us! 

Hello, Brockbank Families!

Thanks for your support with our minimal day today! 

We want to congratulate our great secretary, Brenda Johnson, for receiving a PEAK Award from Nebo District!  Brenda works so hard as our secretary and loves each student here.  She is helpful to everyone and makes sure our school is ready to go each day!  Congratulations, Brenda!

Brockbank first-graders read the book, "Enemy Pie" written by Derek Munson about a boy whose summer is ruined when Jeremy Ross moves in and becomes number one on the enemy list. Fortunately, for the boy his father has a secret recipe for a pie that is guaranteed to help get rid of enemies. While his Dad works on mixing the ingredients and baking the pie, he explains that his son's role in the plan is that he needs to spend a day with his enemy. Even worse, he has to be nice to him. It sounds tough, but the boy decides to give it a try.

This year for School Spirit, the PTA would like to see Brockbank's School Spirit Shine! There is going to be friendly competitions between classes on Fridays. On Friday, teachers will tally the students wearing school colors on that day and send their classroom percentage to the office. The goal is to get 100%! Brockbank's school colors are NAVY & MAROON! If they don't have a school shirt students can still be counted by wearing navy, or maroon, or even a shirt with a horse on it.

Hello, Brockbank Families!

Another great week is ahead of us!  Tomorrow we will be having our BFF activity.  This year we are talking about a “Growth Mind Set,” and how we can strengthen our brains and learn new things, even if it takes time.  After school tomorrow,  ask your child what the power of YET means.  We hope to have a few articles and other information for you on the Growth Mindset, so that you can be involved with this important concept!

Brockbank is excited to participate again this year with the character ed program called BFF Groups. We will be working together to create unity in our school!

Hello, Brockbank Families!

We are feeling a little bit of Fall weather in the air and the mountains are looking so beautiful as the leaves are turning!  We like this cool weather—but still want our blue sky and sunshine!

Our POP into Summer Reading Party will be Sept. 8th.  Mrs. Plaisted has been working hard to have some fun activities for those who met their goal for summer reading!  Thanks to all the students who read over the summer!
