Fifth Grade Wax Museum
Brockbank Elementary fifth-graders held their wax museum. The students picked a famous person in American history, they did research on that person, memorizing interesting and important facts, and then they got to dress-up like that person. Students from other grades, parents and grandparents were able to visit the museum and learn about these famous Americans. It was a very fun and educational experience for all that participated.
BYU Cougar Built
Student athletes along with Cosmo and the BYU dunk team came to Brockbank to put on a presentation inviting students to be Cougar Built. They stressed four important ways to be "Cougar Built" 1) Built to Love - We will be kind and respectful, even when it's hard. We will treat everyone like a friend. 2) Built to Learn - We will listen carefully, always be honest, do our best, and ask teachers and parents for help. 3) Built to Work - We will say YES to healthy food, sleep, and exercise. We will say NO to drugs and alcohol.
