COMMUNITY NIGHT OUT RECAP

A Message from Officer White!

I'd like to thank everyone for showing up for the Mountain Brook Police Department's Community Night Out. I had a great time getting dunked by everyone. Our students from CES showed up and showed out! I would also like to thank our wonderful PTO who helped with the Pumpkin Patch. The whole night was a huge success!

FALL FESTIVAL INFORMATION


The Crestline Fall Festival is Friday, October 25th (1-3 PM) This is a Rain or Shine Event! The entrance for parents and volunteers will be at the playground gates by the picnic tables. Wristbands purchased prior to the order deadline (10/18) will be delivered to all students prior to festival.

In order to keep everyone safe, wristbands are for CES students only. If your family is attending Fall Festival, please have a plan to meet your children somewhere on campus. When school dismisses at 1:00, teachers will no longer provide supervision for their classes.  There will not be EDP that day.  Look for more information on dismissal soon. A Map of the Event will be sent out next week.


PLEASE CLICK THE LINK BELOW AND SIGN UP FOR ANY SHIFTS STILL AVAILABLE. WITHOUT YOUR HELP, WE CAN'T RUN THIS FUN EVENT!

LOST AND FOUND

The Lost and Found has a new, convenient location! You can now find it outside the auditorium, beside the windows facing the playground. Unfortunately, most items do not have names, so Sabrina Carpenter is begging you to “Please Please Please” label your stuff! Here are some helpful labeling supplies:

Please have your child check the Lost and Found for their missing items, and you can also peruse them in person during conferences. Because after Friday, October 18th, all items left will get a big *NSYNC “Bye Bye Bye” and be donated! 

SCHOOL DIRECTORY UPDATES

Our school directory is completely online. Confirm your directory information and add your child's teacher by going to the "My Account" section.   


If you updated your account prior to the start of this school year please add your child's teacher by going to the "my account" section to update it now.

GIVE 180

There is still time to become a Give180 family for the 2024-2025 school year! Make a difference and give to the Mountain Brook City Schools Foundation. Please join the more than 600 families in the district who have already donated as a part of the Foundation’s annual Give180 Campaign - $1 for every day your student is learning through Mountain Brook Schools. The Foundation fills the gap between what government funding can provide and the additional resources our school system needs to succeed.  Your tax-deductible contribution is an investment that allows Mountain Brook Schools and its students to be leaders in public education.  For more information and to donate, please visit www.mbgives.org
