Brookwood Elementary School

We are SO proud of all the hard work our Mustangs have put into their school work this past week. We know that everyone’s Spring Break has drastically changed —- so we wanted to share with you a few virtual vacation options for you and your family to visit during your Spring Break from home. None of these virtual vacations are directly associated with Genoa City Joint 2 School District, even though we are posting them, but we wanted to be able to help support the change of times while we continue on this new journey together. So we hope you enjoy and if you have recommendations for more; drop the link in the comments below....just stay tuned! Monday will start our first slew of virtual tours of fun places for your visit from home! **Check out the tours on our Facebook page! *They will not be shared in our app/website* https://www.facebook.com/GenoaCitySchools/ #BrookwoodsBest #SpringBreakWeek #Staycation

Brookwood Families, The safety and health of our students and our communities are very important to us. 

March 16th and 17th will be teacher ONLY days. This will allow our staff time to prepare for the upcoming days where instruction will be set off-site for our students. There will be set times where students/parents can come onsite to pick up devices and supplies from their classrooms that have been left behind. Our K-3 students will also be given their devices to bring home for the period of time when our school is closed. Information in regards to the device/supply pick up will be sent out over the weekend. We will work with our families to ensure that our students have what they need to keep learning when they are not in school.

Specifics about learning activities will be shared during device/supply pick up times and through our Brookwood App and social media during our teacher days. 

If you have other questions, comments, and/or concerns, please contact Kellie Bohn directly at kellie.bohn@gcj2.k12.wi.us or 262-374-1949.
