Let's make our return to school a memorable one. 💪📣 Here's to a fantastic reopening and a wonderful remainder of the school year! 🌈📏✨

Due to current road conditions and widespread power outages, Brooks County Schools will remain closed on Thursday, August 31. We will assess conditions tomorrow afternoon and announce the plan for Friday. Stay safe, Trojans!

Stay safe Trojans!

As Tropical Storm Idalia occupies our attention, please rest assured that Brooks County Schools are actively monitoring the storm. We are in constant contact with local and state emergency management as well as local stakeholders. As of this moment, no decisions have been made in reference to the status of school closings. It is simply too early to make those determinations. We continue to be involved in several briefings throughout the day to ensure we have the most current information. We recommend that everyone visit the Brooks County 911/EMA Facebook page and download the CodeRed App. The free app is used nationwide and will provide real time emergency information for your area. The safety and welfare of our students and staff as well the entire Trojan community remains our top priority.

Mrs. Toler's 5th Grade classes took part in a book tasting this week. They joined Mrs. Wortman in the media center and were able to visit each "dinner" table to sample books and take notes in their menus. The students really "ate it up." They were so engaged and inspired that the 5th grade team treated their students to popsicles at recess to help motivate and reward them for their hard work!

Fridays are for reading, writing, arithmetic, compost, aerobics and so much more! Learning is best when it's engaging and fun!

North Brooks Kindergarten Kickoff, Wednesday, August 3rd from 1:00 to 2:00. Meet the kindergarten teachers, tour the school, and get ready for the first day of school!
