Say hi to Nicholas! He has been learning a lot in the Bears classroom. During our "All About Me" unit, he shared some of his interests with us. He loves to laugh and play, his favorite food is lobster, and he would like to be a doctor when he grows up because he wants to help people. Awesome job, Nicholas!

It's been an incredible year! We've made many memories, learned a lot, and stepped out of our comfort zones by trying new things. A meaningful milestone was seeing our students in their most elegant suits and dresses at prom. While providing quality special education, we also want to ensure our students have experiences they will cherish for a lifetime. Seeing their bright smiles on prom night made it even more special. Learn more about this magical night on our blog. ✨ At Brookvillecenter.org
