Brennan Families,
As the end of the school year approaches, we are busy preparing for next year. Mr. Yangambi is spending time at Brennan weekly and we have been working together closely to ensure a smooth transition of leadership. As you may be aware, I will be moving to Hill-Roberts Elementary School next year and Mr. Husband will be moving to Coelho Middle School. Ms. Dawn Greening will be moving from Acting Dean to an Assistant Principal position here at Brennan. Joining the administrative team as the other Assistant Principal will be Mr. Noah Collins. Although Mr. Collins has been an administrator at Hyman Fine for the last few years, he has years of middle school experience. Leaving students I have known since they were in kindergarten is bittersweet as I have truly enjoyed watching them grow as learners and individuals, however I am thrilled about the opportunity to be part of the Hill-Roberts community.
If your family will be moving this summer, please contact Mrs. Callahan or Mrs. Silva in the Brennan office (508.222.6260) to find out next steps about transferring your child(ren) to another school or district.
The last day of school on Friday, June 14, 2024 will be an Early Release Day. Brennan will dismiss at 11:30 and no lunches will be served.
The 2024-2025 School Year Transportation Application is now open. New this year, all eligible students, including Kindergarten and First grade, who wish to ride the bus to/from any of the Attleboro Public Schools MUST complete the Transportation Application to secure transportation. The only exception to this is for those with specialized transportation needs listed in an IEP. Families should refer to the email sent on May 3, 2024, or visit the APS Transportation website for details: https://www.attleboroschools.com/o/apswc/page/transportation
