We are getting ready for a safe return!

Glenbrook's staff and the U-46 team is getting our building ready for the safe return of students.  We can't wait to see them back, in person.  We do want to do that safely though.  Signage is up, floor markings are in place, new cubbies are installed, water bottle fillers are in place, classrooms and office areas are set up for social distancing, and PPE is ready.  It won't be long now!  

Week 5

Ms. Jetha Departs

 

We are sad to say that our Lunch Supervisor Lead, Ms. Jetha Fuller, is leaving Glenbrook. Oh, we will miss her so!  Ms. Jetha always had a smile on her face and a warm greeting for the staff and students. Her priority was to make sure that each student felt special.  When she heard it was their birthday, they got an individual song and dance from Ms. Jetha.  What a treat!  Ms. Jetha always made sure that every student had plenty to eat too.  Throughout the school year, during our COVID19 lockdown, and all summer long, Ms. Jetha was at school preparing and packaging meals.  Now, Ms. Jetha Fuller moves on to a full-time management position in central Illinois.  We wish her the best of health, happiness, and prosperity!

Week 4 

Keep those photos coming!

I so appreciate the photos parents, teachers, and students are sending!  Thank you!  If you want to be represented though, you have to send them in.  Please do, they are fun to see and really show how much students are focused on their learning while having some fun too.  Photos and 10-second videos can be sent to cherylderoo@u-46.org.

Hat Day - 4/5 Grade

 

Wear a Mask!

Mr. Michel, the Kindergarten Dual Language teacher, reminds his students to wash their hands and wear a mask! This is great practice for when it's time to return to school.  Thank you Mr. Michel!  He used a fun song with the students last week. Spanish Mask Song .  I also found a fun one is English. English Mask Song. 

A special thank you to the dad and daughter duo of Arturo and Genesis Gomez created their own special version. Check it out!  Dad and Daughter Mask Duo.

 Who Says Learning Can't Be Tons Of Fun!

Just look at these faces and you will see the delight!  These kiddos had a great week of learning mixed with lots of fun too.  Mrs. Chandler's class celebrated a week of hard work with a Star Wars Day. What fun that was!  

Sometimes there is lots of concentration, and sometimes, a break, a dance, and a smile.  Thanks for sending in the photos, parents! I love them!

Mary Hanson was our first positive referral student!  Way to show Hawk Pride Mary!  For a reward, Mary chose a virtual lunch with the principal. (Mrs. DeRoo had just as much fun as Mary!)

Look at these Beauties!  Brianna and Isabella Acosta performed Hispanic Folk dances for Bartlett's Diversity in Art Celebration.
