HELLO AND WELCOME TO THE BROAD BROOK SCHOOL WEBSITE.

Our PreK to Grade 4 school provides a supportive transition from home to school through our strong partnership with parents, teachers and students.  The mission of our school is to offer our entire community of learners a varied and challenging curriculum in a safe and nurturing environment that is conducive to teaching and learning.  The school community is committed to developing respectful behaviors, personal responsibility and productive citizenship.  As a school we are working to implement the Responsive Classroom approach and to increase inclusive opportunities for all students.  Our goal is to have classroom learning environments where children thrive academically, socially, and emotionally by learning from each other and through instruction that addresses their specific needs.

We encourage parents to develop a positive working relationship with their students’ teachers.  Parents can take an active role in their child’s education by volunteering at school, working with children at home and by having conversations about learning at home.  Teachers can be reached through voice mail, email or by calling the school. Weekly updates are available on the Parent Bulletin link.

Our Birth to School Family Resource Center supports families’ life long learning through play groups, parent education opportunities and before and after-school childcare.  For more information click on the Parent Bulletin link.

Based on students’ and families’ Hopes and Dreams for the coming school year, classrooms developed classroom rules.  These classroom rules were brought to our first ever Constitutional Convention.  Representatives from each classroom have formed the following Broad Brook School Constitution: 

The Broad Brook School Preamble and Constitution 

We, the students of Broad Brook School, in order to form a more perfect school, create fairness, insure peace, and promote the general happiness and safety to ourselves and future students do proclaim and establish this constitution for the Broad Brook School:

1. Always do your best and help each other to learn.

2. Cooperate and be honest with others.

3. Take care of ourselves and others on the inside and the outside.

4. Take care of our classroom and the school. 

The agreement of the representatives of students from Grades Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 4 shall be sufficient for the establishment of this Constitution.

The representatives of all classrooms present this constitution for the Broad Brook School on

September 27, 2007.

This constitution represents the rules of Broad Brook School.
