You would need to be at the school Thursday, January 29, from 8 a. m. until around 1 p. m. Coffee and homemade baked goods will be provided and your time would be very appreciated by the PTA, Brentwood Elementary and, most of all, the students participating.

Come see all the informative and creative science projects that Brentwood students entered in the Science Fair, from 3 to 6:30 p.m. Thursday, January 29, in the gym. At 6:30 p.m., join the PTA in the cafeteria for a pizza dinner ($6 per family) and announcements.
LIGHT BRIGHT
Used incandescent lightbulbs are needed for a project by kindergarten and 1st grade students. They will be creating papier-mache maracas in ART class, to be used in MUSIC class. Please donate lightbulbs in the bin by the front door, with the other recycle bins. We need about 250!
Thanks, Ms. Anderson & Ms. Henderson
