DARE Graduation
We are so thankful that the Village of Streamwood continues to fund the DARE program in conjunction with the Streamwood Police Department. Office Ed Polaski, our school's DARE officer put in countless hours helping our students to learn to stand their ground and say "NO" to drugs, alcohol, bullying and anything else that made them uncomfortable. They worked hard on developing self-esteem and becoming positive role models at Glenbrook. We are proud of all of our graduates for their hard work. Thank you to Officer Ed, the Streamwood Police Department, Mayor Billie Roth and to the entire Village of Streamwood for supporting our students!
A BIG congratulations to our DARE Essay winners, Emily Alvarado, Neda Bazys, Ariana Guerrero, and Ayaka Vieira. All four girls wrote fabulous and inspiring essays!
Winter Celebrations
As students prepared to take their 2-week winter break classrooms spend much of the week partnering to do group projects and learned about the various holidays celebrated throughout the season. We at Glenbrook wish all of you a safe and joyous holiday season and happy start to 2019!
