Brooks PTA Photo Use Policy

Naomi L. Brooks Elementary PTA may employ various forms of media to keep Brooks families informed and involved in the PTA’s efforts and programs.  Photos and videos may be uploaded periodically to the Brooks PTA Facebook page or the PTA website. It is the policy of Brooks PTA not to identify any child or individual by name in any photo on any Internet site unless the express permission has been granted from the parent/guardian. If you’d still like to request that your child not be pictured in any of our communications, please send an email to: [email protected]

Please note that ACPS has its own media policies for students and keeps its own records. This is separate from the PTA and ACPS bears no responsibility for any actions or errors made in media permission on a PTA Internet site.

Help wanted: Your input on a new principal

ACPS is trying to move quickly to fill the giant shoes of our beloved principal. To that end, we’ll host a Community Engagement Forum on Thursday April 6th at 6:30pm in the cafeteria to discuss desired qualities in a new principal. We will be joined by Dr. Lisa Piehota (ACPS Executive Director of Elementary School Instruction) and Joe Makolandra (ACPS Chief Human Resources Officer).

Maury Playground Update

Exciting news……the details and schedule for emergency improvements are final and our students will be enjoying an improved playground soon with more planned in 2015. From ACPS, “The ACPS Facilities Department is replacing the existing soccer field surface with sod. In order to ensure the sod installation is successful, additional work will be done to direct storm water away from the field area. The soccer field area will be fenced off and closed August 16th- October 1st. This time is critical to allow the sod to settle and receive regular watering. The baseball field will receive new infield mix to fill in the ruts that have been created by rain water. The entire schoolyard will be closed for construction August 16th-September 2nd.”

For more information on our school yard initiative, visit www.saveourschoolyard.com.

Maury PTA Survey

We had nearly 125 Maury parents fill out PTA surveys last month. While we have quick summaries, it’s a big survey – and so, for your convenience, we will post this Excel spreadsheet with full remarks, including comments. If you want a PDF or printout of this survey, please email Jessica at jesswehrman(at)yahoo.com. We’re just trying to save a few trees, people – but we’re happy to share the results.

Read the survey, including the comments.

We do, of course, need volunteers. Please sign up at:
