Dear Brentwood Families:

I hope your child(ren) has had a positive first week of school.  It has been wonderful to see so many happy faces when visiting classrooms.

Here are some reminders and updates for the week ahead:

What to Bring to School

Please ensure your child arrives at Brentwood with a full lunch, water bottle, and ample snacks for the morning and afternoon.  It is typical for students to eat more as they adjust to school routines after the summer break. 

Busing Expectations

Most of our students use charter transportation (yellow school bus) to come to and from our school.  We have 13 very busy bus routes!  Please take the time to review the following CBE bus expectations with your child(ren):

• the driver must be respected;
• while on the bus or at bus stops, students must conduct themselves in a quiet and courteous manner, showing consideration for the comfort and safety of others;
• while the bus is in motion, students must remain seated facing forward, and must not try to get on or off the bus, or move about within the bus;
• students must not throw paper or other waste materials on the floor or out of the window of the bus;
• students must not distract the bus driver with excessive noise;

We appreciate your support!  Should there be concerns or questions about the bus, your driver is the first point of contact.   Please ensure you have greeted your child’s bus driver and know their name.

Meet the Teacher School Conferences

Our ‘Meet the Teacher’ School Conferences will be held on Friday, September 25. This is an important opportunity to meet your child’s teacher, and here about the year’s plans, routines & expectations.  Details on how to book a conference with your child(ren)’s teacher will be shared next week.
