Congratulations to our @BriarGlenSchool fifth-graders! We are so proud of you and you’ll do great in junior high next year. Once a Bulldog, always a Bulldog! 🐾

We had an amazing time at Field Day! A huge thank you to all of the volunteers who helped make the day such a success. Your time, energy, and support made it a fun and memorable experience for everyone! 🐾

What an unforgettable day at the Shedd Aquarium! From learning about animal adaptations and habitats to observing incredible marine life and petting starfish, our students had so much fun exploring and discovering together! 🐬

Feeling overwhelmed in the best way by all the wonderful thank you notes today. This group of girls made a giant thank you card, and I absolutely love it! @BriarGlenSchool

4th Graders did a wonderful job presenting their Civics, Geography and Economics Projects at our “Year In Action” fair! 🗺️🥳

Fifth grade and kindergarten students at @BriarGlenSchool had a buddy music class today!

One of my favorite days of the year. Congratulations seniors!

Today was a special day @BriarGlenSchool as we welcomed back our graduating seniors! It’s amazing to see the incredible young adults our Bulldogs have become. Wishing them all the best in their next chapter! 🎓💙

Nothing like fresh air and a good book! 📚🌞

Look who we caught reading to the third-graders at @BriarGlenSchool , it’s @ccsd89 Superintendent Mr. Eccarius! 📚 Thanks for spending part of your day with our students, @deccarius!

So proud of these girls and all they accomplished this season! 💕 They worked so hard, supported one another, and celebrated their efforts at our 5K this week! They also made and sold bracelets to raise money for Good Samaritan Hospital for our Community Impact Project. ✨

At our symposium, students dressed as influential figures and delivered speeches in character, sharing their inspiring stories and lasting impacts. We are so proud of their hard work, creativity, and confidence. We can’t wait to see the difference they make in the world too! 💙

Room A3 had a special visit from JiJi! Our fourth graders earned JiJi for the week by completing the most ST Math puzzles and showing awesome progress. Keep up the great work!

What a busy week! 🌟 Shoutout to two amazing students for passing ST Math, two incredible kiddos for earning this month’s Character Strong award for courage, and a creative group who organized, wrote, and performed their very own play! We also loved two special author visits!

Our @BriarGlenSchool Drama Club performed The Quest for Pixie Dust! For months, students worked hard memorizing lines, designing sets, gathering props, and coordinating sound and music. We are so proud of all involved! Special thanks to Mrs. Druger, Mrs. Grashel & Ms. Lillwitz!

Such an exciting day @BriarGlenSchool! We were honored to welcome Jasmine Warga, author of A Rover’s Story, as we celebrated and culminated our One Book, One School experience.
