For Parents and Teachers

Get in the Game - READ!

Our Summer Reading Program was a big success!

THANKS to the 53 teen and adult volunteers who helped out with this year's program. We couldn't have done it without you! And a big thank-you to the Brookfield businesses who generously donated prizes: Brookfield Bowl, Brookfield True Value Hardware, First National Bank of Brookfield, Flying High Gymnastics, Loca Mocha, and Paisan's Pizzeria.

Try our great databases for kids, TumbleBooks , CultureGrams , and more.

ATTENTION TEACHERS! Help us help your students by telling us about your major homework assignments. Access our Online Assignment Alert form HERE . (thanks!)
