September
Safety Drills During the School Year
Mrs. Snyder's Class Learns about Fire Drills
Keeping students and staff safe is a priority for all of us! Brookfield has an emergency preparedness plan to respond to incidents such as fires and tornadoes and practices for each type every year.
Our first lockdown drill will be in September though Pre-K and and kindergarten students will be exempt from practicing the first lockdown drill. Your child may come home and talk about their experience during the drill. We encourage you to talk with your child about the importance of being prepared for emergencies. Here are some helpful tips for families to use to support their students before and after school lockdown drills.
Working together, we create a safe, secure environment for students to learn and grow in our schools!
Attend Today, Achieve Tomorrow!
The beginning of the school year is the best time to develop strong attendance habits! Students who attend school regularly are more likely to perform well in reading and math, develop strong social and emotional skills, and graduate from high school on time.
Visit FCPS’ Attendance web page for tips and strategies.

Communications with Brookfield
Staying informed is essential to our successful partnership. There are several ways we will communicate with you this year:
