The 4th grade team at Brookside hosted a delightful Tea Party to celebrate their students' incredible informational writing! Inspired by their American Revolution unit, students dressed the part, sipped tea, and shared their published pieces with pride. A fun and meaningful way to bring history—and great writing—to life! #BESTatBrookside

Mr. Deblasio's High School Honors Design Thinking class met their corporate sponsor, the New York Boulders.The multi-faceted challenge they received is to try and create new ticket pack designs for families, to design additional perks for season ticket holders, create additional birthday party add-ons and design social media campaigns to increase ticket sales. They look forward to creating and sharing their new ideas regarding this challenge. Amazing experience for our students!
