Good morning Huskie families,

Thank you to all those who signed up for Art Awareness. Please look for the official kick-off email with details about your role in the program today.


We're also preparing for another exciting Multicultural Day on December 4, and will need parent volunteers to help run event stations. Sign up here.

Honoring the Veterans in our Huskie Community This Wednesday

We are proud to once again celebrate and honor those veterans near and dear to our Huskie family at our annual Veterans Day Breakfast this Wednesday, November 11. All students are welcome and encouraged to invite the veterans in their families to join together for this inspiring annual breakfast and assembly.


In order to make this event a success, we need volunteers to help with setup the afternoon before and on the morning of the breakfast. Please visit this sign up link to volunteer - we appreciate you!

Dough Raising: Domino's Slice the Price Cards Dough Raising: Domino's Slice the Price Cards

🍕BOGO Pizza! 🍕

This month's Dough Raising looks a little different. Instead of visiting a local restaurant on a given day, the Spring Brook PTA is running a Domino's Slice the Price card fundraiser!


Starting today, Monday, November 9 through Monday, November 23 students will be selling $20 Domino's cards that can be used for buy-one-get-one-FREE large pizzas at Domino's until 6/30/27. Spring Brook gets $10 back for every card sold!


How Does It Work?

It's really easy:


  1. Register your student at the Slice the Price fundraiser page.
  2. Share this link, encourage your family and friends to buy a Domino's Slice the Price card: https://store.dominos.cards/56754.
  3. Order a large pizza and get one free using the Slice the Price card! (Yes, that means if you buy 10 pizzas you get 10 free!) Remember, $10 from every card sold goes right back to Spring Brook! 🍕

Our goal is to raise $1,000, which will go toward classroom supplies, teacher appreciation, and playground equipment. Check the leaderboard to see how we're doing on achieving our goal!


Questions? Contact Lindsay Woznicki.


Dough raising events are an opportunity to join with others in the Spring Brook community for fun, food and a little fundraising. A portion of sales during these events are donated by our community partners to support the efforts of the Spring Brook Elementary PTA.

A Note from Our Community Relations Chair:

The PTA is always looking for new ways to partner with the community to enrich the lives of our students. We expanded our sponsorship program last year and plan to continue these efforts in the 2026-2027 school year.


If your family owns or is connected to a local business and is interested in sponsoring a Spring Brook event, please see the attached letter for more information or reach out to Ellen Mulryan.

Get Ready for Multicultural Day on December 4

Our school is filled with beautiful, diverse cultures, and we want to bring those rich traditions to life for our students! On Friday, December 4, Spring Brook Elementary will be hosting our annual Multicultural Day. This event is a memorable, hands-on way to introduce our children to unique global traditions, games, clothing, and histories that are deeply meaningful to members of our own community.


New this year! To encourage participation from everyone and to learn more about EVERY culture represented at Spring Brook on Multicultural Day, we would love to see students wear traditional clothing from their family's culture (e.g.: sari, kilt, poncho, etc.) or any clothing that represents their heritage (e.g.: wear green to represent Irish heritage). Let's have fun with this and represent all of the wonderful heritages and cultures of our Spring Brook families!


To make this day a success, we also need parent volunteers to help at each of the event's stations. Sign up for a volunteer slot here!


Thank you in advance for helping us create a vibrant, educational, and unforgettable day for our students. We cannot wait to celebrate the wonderful cultures that make Spring Brook so special!
