At Brooks Global Studies, we prepare students to become active, knowledgeable participants in a global society. Our studies lead them to understand how their actions as individuals impact the larger community of their classroom and the school, just as the actions of a single country affects the world. Our children learn to genuinely respect and accept the differences that make people and their cultures unique.

Brooks Global Book Exchange
Every Friday, 7:35-7:55 in the cafe.
Set up on two tables near stage. Books are sorted by Reading Level except the Series Books. Students bring a book. Give them a card for each book. They find a new book and give you the card back when they have found a book. Some students may have cards from last year. This is OK. Check to make sure they are not library books. No pre-K or younger books. No magazines.
