Grade 2 student Esme Bernhard summed up the need in her letter supporting the application: she wanted to “play an instrument that doesn’t go thunk!”
Students in Grades 1-5 are now enjoying the new instruments and hearing the difference for themselves.
A big thank you to Ms. Jensen for her work securing the grant, Esme and Assistant Superintendent Katie Graham for their letters of support, and MusiCounts for supporting Griffin Park’s music program!

We’re excited to welcome our Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten families as we get ready for the 2026–2027 school year!

👋 Orientation takes place the week of August 31, and teachers will be reaching out to families with details.
A few reminders for families:
*Pre-K families: If you haven’t completed your registration package, please check your email. Families who have previously inquired about Pre-K can also expect a phone call this week.
*Kindergarten families: There’s still time to register your child online.
*School supply and calendar information can be found on your school website, with additional Pre-K information available at orientation.

We can’t wait to welcome our newest learners and their families for a wonderful year of learning, playing, growing and discovering together!

As we get ready to start a new school year, we want to make sure you are aware of a road closure that the City of Brooks has planned, starting September 1st, so that you can plan accordingly.
We recommend student drop off and pick up to be made along the side of the school (7th Street/3rd Ave W) or at the back of the school along 2nd Ave W).
Please see the attached map for your information.
We look forward to seeing your child(ren) soon!
