Brant Elementary will have an assembly with Officer Hoak who will be reviewing Halloween safety with our students. This list of do's and don'ts will help keep kids safe.
- Avoid dark houses
- Bring a flashlight
- Make sure costumes don't drag and trip you up
- Make sure you can breath and see if wearing a mask - better - don't wear a mask
- Don't eat any candy until your parents have inspected it and say it is okay.
- Choose a trick or treat bag that will help you be seen
- Plan your route in advance with your parents
- Remember rules for safely crossing the street or exiting from your vehicle
- Wear light colored costumes and reflective tape so you can be seen at night
- Bring your parents with you as you trick-or-treat
- Wear appropriate shoes for walking
- Be respectful of others and the property of others
Have a safe and happy Halloween!

 Students in Mrs. Grennell, Mrs. Zeffiro and Mrs. Govenettio's classes took a field trip to Bence's Apple Farm and learned all about apples and growing apple trees. Understanding plants cycles from seeds through fruit bearing is a concept learned in the early elementary science. Children were able to purchase apples to bring home after the tour. Today's science lesson certainly had a delicious ending!

Friday, 10 October 2008 |
Mrs. Mary Desing,
student teacher of Mrs. Mary Brumagin, recently taught fifth grade
students at Brant Elementary about the upcoming elections. As the
culminating activity in the unit, students completed a video
presentation as part of a community service project. Students studied
the voting process and the importance of voting to citizenship, learned
about the Electoral College, political parties and platforms, and then
created a voting booth for the student body. This project gave students
the opportunity to develop public speaking and speech writing skills.
The video the fifth graders created will be used to instruct other
students in the building about the voting process, and prepare them to
cast their ballots as well. To view the video, click the link for More....
