​The Brent Recommended Book List for Summer Reading is now available!  Summer reading is incredibly important for reading level maintenance, so it is critical to make time for reading every day. The list represents only a small sample of titles that your child/children may enjoy.  You should not feel compelled to either stick to or complete the list, but you can trust that they are titles that are loved by members of the Brent community.  Brent is not operating an online reading log this summer, but we encourage families to participate in the Summer Reading Challenge being run by the DC Public Library System (https://www.dclibrary.org/summerchallenge)!  Make sure to register with “Brent” in the school field so that we can learn about the reading your family does.  Have a wonderful time reading!

This is an exciting time for the Brent PTA.  Last week the PTA approved new bylaws just in time to elect next year's officers.  Beginning in the 2018-2019 school year, all members of the PTA Board will be officers, and to spread the fun and the workload around, two people will hold each office.  Grab a friend and join the fun!

We are calling all Brent Bears to consider serving as one of the following PTA officers:

Co-President
Co-Vice President
Co-Secretary (one Secretary will serve a 1-year term and the other Secretary will serve a 2-year term)
Co-Treasurer (one Treasurer will serve a 1-year term and the other Treasurer will serve a 2-year term)
Co-Community Liaisons (one Liaison must have a child who has attended Brent for 2 years or less)
