We hope you are all enjoying the last days of summer with your family and friends! We are all so excited to see the school once again filled with children eager to learn and have fun while doing so. Below, we are sharing some more detailed information about how we will help maintain a healthy environment for all of us at Littlebrook School.
Whenever possible, lunch can take place outdoors. We are expecting the delivery and setup of 6 large tents to provide cover for our staff and students. We have also received additional tables and chairs to help provide safe eating spaces outdoors.

As the weather turns colder, we though you might enjoy this October video from the Littlebrook School Gardens. Under the guidance of School Gardener Nancy Nicosia, each bed is a themed continent and has plants that are anti to that continent. Part One of this video includes European plants, South American plants (tomatoes) and a hint of what’s in the Asian garden (which includes loofa, a gourd). Littlebrook has donated over 200 pounds to producer to local food pantries.
Thank you for your support in completing a health-status assessment each morning for your child (parents) or yourself (high schoolers). You’ve enabled us to welcome our staff and students back to school in a safe environment.
Based on our experience, we’re making minor changes in our system.
