Brookline High School - This Week

SPECIAL THANKS FROM THE PTO
The PTO would like to make a special shout-out to our Professional PTO Fundraiser, Charlie Walsh, whose humor, creativity, and video skills make the annual plea for donating to the PTO something we all look forward to. Your tax-deductible contributions enable us to support the students, parents and teachers of Brookline High School. Parent contributions allow us to support many BHS teachers with direct classroom grants, provide information to parents, and support our students with events from the Freshman Barbecue to the After the Prom Party and everything in between. Click the "Donate" button on the BHS PTO site.
Without the help, guidance, and outstanding organizational skills of PTO Special Events Co-Chairs, Suzanne Elovecky and Danit Ben-Ari, the tremendously successful Teachers Appreciation Breakfast would not have been possible. We are very grateful for the time and energy they put into this important annual event, that expresses our appreciation to the phenomenal BHS administration and staff. We would also like to thank the many volunteers who donated delicious food, generous time, and efficient cleaning skills to make the breakfast a big success.
ONLINE DIRECTORY The BHS online directory is now available. You will find your temporary password for login in last week's email from the BHS PTO. Emails were sent to the primary address for each family. Login to the online directory at online link. Login with your mobile device at mobile link. We would like to thank Steven Webler for helping with the data and our PTO Co-President Stewart Silvestri who pinch-hit as technical guru last weekend, overcoming an impossibly short deadline to have the directory finished by Back-to-School night.
SCHOOL COUNCIL Congratulations to the new School Council representatives Chandlee Dickey, Laura Gabel-Hartman and Sara Stoutland. We are grateful for your service.
