Dear Parents and Guardians of Brinckerhoff Students,
May this letter find you enjoying your summer. I hope everyone has found
time to be with family, learn new things, read a book and stay cool. The
anticipation of students, parents and teachers returning to see our sparkling
building along with new and old faces is mounting. The upcoming year is sure
to be filled with exciting programs and educational adventures.
There are a few dates of importance and helpful questions to ask so you may
become more involved with your child’s education. Please take a moment to
review the dates and familiarize yourself with our helpful hints in order to
foster a positive home to school partnership and achieve excellence in the
classroom.
