Pre-Summer School

Hello all!

I will periodically be writing a Blog post for your information; if I have anything you need to know about!  This summer at Brownell, we will not have the High School students as they will be attending Gilroy High School summer school.   So... it should be a bit less noisy... I think...   

But, we do have a number of programs and a couple hundred students attending!   

--------->>>>>><<<<<<---------

Lunches will be served at different times for different programs between 11:30 and 1:00 and we would like the students to eat outside.  When it gets hot we will have some tables set up in the MPR.  Because we are sharing the MPR we will need to be flexible so that we are all served and taken care of!

Special Education will be utilizing four classrooms:   
Severe Autistic, Non-Severe SDC (2) and Severe.  They will be in Rooms 1-4

Migrant Education will be in classrooms 10, 11 and 12  With Math, ELA and Science

PowerSchool will be occupying the "Village" as we at Brownell like to call our 6th grade area of campus on the south east side of the campus.   All classrooms except a couple will be used by PowerSchool this summer as well as the Gym.

Also on campus we are honored to have for the second time in two years, STAR ARTS Education!  STAR will be occupying the stage, some classrooms and most of the MPR room for their summer programs-"Gilroy STAR" and "Video STAR".  This year's play is "Annie Jr."  There will be an opportunity for our summer school students to see the play! STAR runs from June 22nd --July 18th!  Performances are July 17th, and 18th.

HEADS UP! 

 
During the summer two maintenance projects will be taken care of at Brownell.  

1.  All outside doors will have new door handle/lock mechanisms replaced.   As this work is being accomplished, every room, room by room will need to be flexible and work with our crews.  Each door will not take too long, but it can get a bit noisy and we will need to switch classrooms here and there to accommodate the work. I'll let you know when the work begins and the rooms that will be worked on that week/day.  

2.  We are getting WiFi this summer!  this is not too much of a job either (per room) but it will mean that every other classroom or so will be installed with a wifi device and connected to our Ethernet. So, flexibility once again and I will keep you posted.

That is all for now!  ~Greg
