We want to thank our community for your engagement, thoughtfulness, and participation in yesterday’s election.
It was truly inspiring to see the passion and care so many people have for Brookland schools. The conversations, questions, and involvement on both sides of the issue reflect a community that deeply values its students and its future.
We are grateful to serve a community that cares so strongly about its schools, and we remain committed to providing the very best for our students every single day.

Last night the BPS School Board approved the 2026-27 BPS School Calendar for the next school year. It is a "minutes" calendar with five snow days built in. The school day start and end times will stay the same as they are now.

Today is Election Day, and polls are open until 7:30 p.m. We are incredibly grateful to our community for your thoughtful consideration, and your continued support of Brookland School District. Regardless of how you choose to vote, your involvement and care for our schools and our students mean so much. Thank you for being part of our shared commitment to the future of Brookland. If you have not yet voted, please remember to exercise your right before polls close this evening.

We are collecting money for Make a Wish this week! The top 20 students who raise the most money will be entered into a drawing to win an iPad! Please send cash or check with your student's name in their folder if you would like it to count towards the drawing. There will be volunteers from the high school with donation buckets at our car line if you would prefer to donate that way. Please note if you donate via the donation bucket we do not have a way of tracking student names for the iPad drawing. Thank you so much in advance for your generosity and support!

Parents,
Our first make up day for snow will be February 16th. We will not be in school February 13th. The 13th was just a scheduled off day on the calendar. We will let you know the other snow days very soon.
A huge thank you to the transportation department, including bus drivers and monitors, for getting our students to school safely. We were able to reach all but a very small area in district! Thank you! Thank you! #bearcatproud
We are still collecting money for Make a Wish from now until next Thursday Feb. 12th. The top 20 students who raise the most money will be entered into a drawing to win a full sized iPad. Have a favorite homeroom teacher? The Pre-K & Kindergarten teacher of the classrooms who raise the most money will have their duty covered for an entire week. Join us in on the fun and help support an amazing cause!
