Why Brookstone? Because Travels Abound!

October 16, 2019 Leave a Comment

We’ve had lots of students packing suitcases lately! From historic Savannah, Georgia to the Andros Islands, our students have so many opportunities to travel, it’s impossible to do them all! Enjoy these pictures from the recent trips! They will make you want to get up and GO! Our Marine Biology class traveled to Andros Island in the Bahamas to study invertebrates. It’s just a shame that place is not pretty. Our Advanced Film Class made its 5th trip to New York City to compete in the All-American High School Film […]

Breakfast Under the Lights and Cub Football 2019

October 8, 2019 Leave a Comment

It’s fall and that means football! And two of my favorite traditions here at Brookstone – Breakfast Under the Lights and Cub Football are all about just that – football! But what makes these two events so special, is that it highlights one of the most special things about Brookstone School and that is the ability of our Upper School students to interact with our Lower School students in such a fun and meaningful way! People matter here at Brookstone. And the opportunity for older students to work with and […]

Roaring Branch Campus

October 4, 2019 Leave a Comment

Our Roaring Branch Campus is one of the most beautiful areas of our campus, yet most people never even get to see it! So I was quite grateful when Sara Varner, with Servant Leadership, sent me these beautiful images! Perhaps even you are seeing this place for the first time. Nestled in the wooded area behind our football and baseball fields, is a hidden gem known as our Roaring Branch Campus. It’s made up of a gently flowing creek, a mile-long cross country trail, an outdoor amphitheater, a Chapel, and […]

International Dot Day 2019

September 27, 2019 1 Comment

It was a magical week in the Woodruff Arts building as our Lower and Intermediate school students celebrated International Dot Day! “What’s ‘Dot Day,’ ” you say? Well, it’s only the most wonderful way to celebrate the fact that ANYONE can make their mark on this world! According to art teacher extraordinaire, Deana Graham, International Dot Day was started about ten years ago by an art teacher who was so moved by Peter Reynold’s book, The Dot, a simple book with a deep meaning. In the book, a little girl does not […]

Brookstone Parents Association

Parent University – Public and Permanent

September 26, 2019 Leave a Comment

One of the MANY reasons I love Brookstone School is because of the true commitment the school has to our kids’ well-being. The same can be said for us as parents. That’s why I am so grateful for our Brookstone Parents Association and our faculty who work together to bring speakers to campus whose knowledge and expertise will benefit us all. They are called Parent Universities. And this school year alone (as in since August!!), we’ve had Dr. Scott Hamilton, an expert in the field of learning differences and executive […]

How much homework is too much?

September 13, 2019 Leave a Comment

How much homework is too much? It’s a valid question. It’s also a question I’m glad Brookstone School is not afraid to ask. Last year, our Upper School teachers began doing some research into the amount of homework students had to do each night. Obviously, there are lots of factors that go into the amount of time each student spends on homework, such as after school activities, technology, and routine bedtimes, but regardless, an informal survey of our students from last year indicated over 70% of our students said that […]

Back to School with our Teachers

September 13, 2019 Leave a Comment

As a Brookstone alumna and parent, I’ve always thought one of the most powerful things about being a part of the Brookstone family is the relationships students and teachers share. Those relationships are an integral part of what makes Brookstone the exceptional school it is. For generations, Brookstone teachers have poured into their students in ways that have transformed lives and impacted the world. I am so blessed to have had the teachers I did during my years here as a Brookstone student, and now, to be surrounded by remarkable […]
