WELCOME EAGLES
Dear Eagle Students and Parents:

Welcome to the 2022 – 2023 School Year! I am excited about the learning opportunities for Brown’s Students. Whether you are new or returning, this year will be a great year for Eagles to Soar! Personally, I am excited that Brown’s students will be held to a standard that will get them ready to compete locally and globally. In order to prepare and challenge our students to exceed the expectations of the Common Core State Standards, you will notice an increase in the complexity of the work students will be bringing home. You will see assignments that further challenge student’s thinking and abilities. As always, parents and students are critical thought partner, which is why we will include students in setting goals throughout the school year. Parents will be informed of the student’s progress. There are several ways that you parents can help:
Make sure your child is in school every day on time ready to learn.
I encourage you to keep in contact with your child’s teacher(s) regarding their progress. Review your child’s assignments with them to be sure they understand what they read and are following directions and processing concepts correctly.
Continue to monitor the CPS Parent Portal to see how your child is progressing.
Have your child use the following website at home:

https://www.thelearningodyssey.com/ Compass Learning. This is a websites that your child is familiar with and they can access using their username and password.
Brown is an Anti-Bully Zone
Brown is committed to students having a healthy social emotional experience. I take bullying very seriously, which is why Brown has an anti-bullying policy. This includes cyber bullying as well. If you feel that you have experienced bullying, you will need to contact Mr. Campbell or myself immediately. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact anyone on Brown’s staff. We are committed to EXCELLENCE. We are going to have a great year as we S.O.A.R towards excellence!

Sincerely,

Steven Askew

Dear Brown Academy Families:

I hope you had a healthy and enjoyable weekend. As we move into the fourth week of our school closing, I would like to thank you again for your child's dedication to learning and balancing everything on your plate.

Beginning April 13, all CPS will transition to remote learning. For Brown Academy, this means very little change from what we've been doing these past 3 weeks. Let's continue our outstanding efforts while ensuring that our students learn as much as possible. Count on communication from your child's teacher that you should be used to.

A PDF of the Brown Academy’s Remote Learning plan is attached, providing specific instructions / links on learning that should be occurring at home for each grade. This learning plan will go into effect on April 13. Please contact us if you have any questions (see the communication protocol in the plan).
