Brookside PTA JOG-A-THON celebrates the XXXIII Winter Olympics

March 21st is the date so get ready, get set, and go! Reach out to family and friends to pledge their support of your Brookside student(s). Your pledge dollars are needed more than before so we can keep all our great school programs in place. There are some great prizes for the kids this year - BES Cinch Sack, BES Handball and BES Pool Towel. Plus, raffle prizes for some great experiences. Top pledge earners will have fun being principal for the day or PE coach for the day, AND if we reach our goal of $20,000 in pledges, our principal and teachers will perform a Flash Mob Dance!!! So please donate, and donate generously for all our Brookside students.
