It's Principal Appreciation Month! Thank you, Mrs. Vinklarek, for all you do!


REMINDER: There is NO school on Monday, October 9th. It is a teacher work day. Enjoy the 3-day weekend!


Please join us on Thursday, October 12th at 6pm at the Junior High, for a Parent Information Meeting. We will be discussing how to access online resources, use the SISD Parent App, the Gifted & Talented Program, and so much more! Come out and get your questions answered!



The District is experiencing phone issues this morning and is working with our service provider to resolve. If you need to reach your child's campus, you can email the campus secretary or message their teachers directly through our SISD App. Search the SISD Staff Directory here: https://www.smithvilleisd.org/staff
Thank you for your patience!


Thanks to everyone who joined us to "Eat the Alphabet" last week with our Pre-K students! They enjoyed trying new foods (well...most of them)!

Our BP Scholastic Book Fair is almost here!! We encourage students and families to join us for this event. Students are able to visit the book fair during the school day with their class (we will not be pulling students from class in order to attend the book fair with parents during the school day). Family Night will be on Thursday, October 5th from 4:00-6:00pm. See you there!!


Tomorrow is SMENCIL (smelly pencil) FRIDAY!! Smencils can be purchased for $1.00 each in the BP Main Hallway during the breakfast period:)


REMINDER FOR PK PARENTS - All parents/guardians must have their picture ID in order to attend "Eating the Alphabet" event this afternoon. See you soon!!


Just a reminder to parents who utilize our student drop-off line in the mornings - all students must stay inside the car until the parent pulls up to the side door of the building and a school employee is able to guide the student inside the building. We understand that time can be limited in the morning and waiting in line to drop off your student may take longer than expected. If you are unable to wait in line due to time constraints, please park your car in the circle drive and escort your student all the way to the cafeteria door. The safety of our students is our top priority and we appreciate your cooperation.


Today we remember the 9/11 attacks and honor the lives lost in that tragedy.
#NeverForget


Thank you to ALL the Brown Primary grandparents who showed up for the Wave Parade! We appreciate you and love you!











Don't forget about the Grandparent Wave Parade at Brown Primary tomorrow morning at 8:30am!! We ask that grandparents arrive no earlier than 8:00am to avoid any potential conflicts with morning drop-off. We look forward to seeing everyone!!

Smithville ISD is closed today, but we will see everyone back tomorrow.


Please see the attached information regarding our Grandparent Wave Parade scheduled for next Friday, September 8, 2023 at 8:30am. We look forward to seeing the grandparents as they wave to our students! If you have any questions, please contact the Brown Primary office at 512-237-2519.



Everyone is invited to help our Brown Primary PK students learn their colors! On the dates listed on the attached flyer, please have your student come to school dressed in the designated color. All attire must remain in dress code. Colored hair is NOT permitted on these days. Thank you for supporting our Brown Primary students!!
