A reminder that school Picture Day is coming to Brewer High School Tuesday, September 21. Ordering information was distributed to students last week. However, if parents/guardians didn't receive one, we have more available here in the main office.
Good afternoon.
In light of the information just sent out from Superintendent Palmer regarding Brewer High School being designated as 'outbreak' status for Covid-19, we will be canceling our Open House scheduled for this evening. We are doing so out of an abundance of caution and to minimize the possibility of further community transmission. We apologize for the short notice and appreciate the support and confidence that Brewer High School families have given us as we work through these situations together.
The Brewer School Department will keep everyone posted with any new developments.
Thanks,
Brent Slowikowski
Principal
Good morning. We'd like to invite all Brewer High School students and their parents/guardians to our Open House, Thursday, September 9. Stop by anytime between 6:00 PM and 7:30 PM to tour the school, see the new renovations in the 100 and 200 Wings, and meet your student's teachers. We'll also have a question & answer sessions for freshman parents/guardians at 6:30 PM. We hope to see you on Thursday. Go Witches!
Good Afternoon,
Ninth grade students who did not pick up their laptop during the summer sessions may pick up their laptop during Freshmen Orientation tomorrow, Friday 8/27. In order to do so, please provide a check made out to Brewer High School in the amount of $25 for the laptop fee.
