March is Reading Month!

March is Reading Month and this year we are celebrating with a March Reading Madness tournament of books. When the teams battle for their spots in the final four, our kids will be reading and voting for their favorite books to make it to the championship round. Fortunately no brackets can be busted since your kids will be reading nothing but great books. This month will be nothing but NET (New Exciting Titles)! For more information, visit our March Reading Madness website.



Positivity Project (P2) is impacting the lives of our Brown School students and staff! Be sure to ask your child about last week's character strength "cheering on others' success". Don't forget to visit P2's family site for additional resources related to this week's character strength "enthusiasm". The password is "P2".
