Mrs. Lindsay Klousnitzer, Director of Curriculum, Instruction and Professional Development As our young learners transitioned to kindergarten, Brentwood Borough School District wanted to focus on building their self-confidence and fostering their enthusiasm for learning. In preparation for the opening days of school, the Little Spartan Kinder Camp provided our youngest students time to familiarize themselves with their new elementary school. Children participated in typical kindergarten classroom activities, toured the school buildings, and learned about their new classmates. The two-week long experience was filled with interactive academic lessons as well as social play and group interaction. The camps were held at both Elroy and Moore Elementary buildings. All incoming kindergarten students were invited to attend and 78% of the class took part in the program. Due to its success, we will continue to offer this summer program in the upcoming years. School Safety The National Association of School Resource Officers (NASRO) presented its Chief Nicholas C. Derzis Safe Schools Leadership Award to Joseph Kozarian, Director of School Police and Facilities, Brentwood Borough School District. This award recognizes individuals for their contributions and dedication to a school resource officer (SRO) program and the many children, parents and faculty members of their communities and schools. Mr. Kozarian continues to be a leader in the area of school safety. Throughout the summer he assisted in training hundreds of schools resource officers across the country.
