Lockers & Study Halls & Bells, Oh My! Last week our 5th grade students received a tour of the Secondary School as they gear up to become 6th graders. Thank you to our members of the National Junior Honor Society who were tour guides! (It was great to see older siblings tour their younger siblings!)
The Brunswick Central School District is aware of press reports that New York State may be relaxing mask rules for students and staff in schools. However, at this time, we have not received any guidance from the NYS Department of Health regarding this change. Once we receive updated guidance, as in all other instances, we will review it and consider any potential changes to current COVID-19 protocols.
Our June Cafeteria Menus are up (the finalized MS lunch menu is pending). Check them out here or use your Brunswick CSD app under dining: https://www.brunswickcsd.org/o/bcsd/browse/216563
May is Better Hearing and Speech Month. The speech-language pathologists focused on ways to promote vocal hygiene and protect hearing. Teaching is the occupation at the highest level of risk for developing a voice disorder. Staying hydrated is important in order to protect your voice, so the SLPs provided the teachers and staff with some extra hydration as a reminder to drink up.
A reminder that there will be NO SCHOOL on Friday, May 28th through Monday, May 31st. Classes will resume on Tuesday, June 1st which will be a B Day (Blue Cohort). Have a safe and restful Memorial Day Weekend.
