Brookvale PTA
Brookvale PTA Reflections program for 2016-17 had a tremendous response from our student community! We had over a 100 students interested and nearly 40 entries across all the grades. We were represented in all the six categories and we had two entries in Photography that were recognized at the Fremont Council:
Dominic Magliulo from 2nd Grade won the Award of Excellence for for his entry – ” The Ride” in the Primary Division – Photography
Sia Lele from 3rd Grade was awarded the “Rising Star” for her entry – “Estrella in Reflection” in the Intermediate Division – Photography

Dear parents,
Brookvale is participating in PIQE (Parent Institute for Quality Education) program, starting on January 18th. The school is providing childcare for parents participating in the program, and is looking for at least 1-2 parent volunteers for each meeting.
Mrs. Hicks-Rodriguez will be asking for 3-4 students from American High School to provide childcare and play games with kids while parents are in the workshops. The parent volunteers would be there only to supervise the high school students.
Volunteers are needed on Wednesday evenings from 6pm to 8pm during the months of January through mid-March 15th. Final dates TBD.
If you can help out, please email Mrs. Hicks-Rodriguez at chicks-rodriguez@fremont.k12.ca.us. Thank you!
Friday, December 16th, is Pajama Day!
Applications must be submitted no later than Thursday, February 23rd, 2017
Each year, Brookvale PTA awards two $750 scholarships to two deserving alumni. Seniors at American High School are eligible to apply for this scholarship if they attended Brookvale Elementary School in grades 1st through 6th.
Students may obtain an application from Mrs. D’Audney, Career Technician, in the American High Career Center. It is also available online, and she can assist with that as well.
If you know of a qualifying American High School senior, please share this information with them!
