Back-to-School!

📚 Welcome Back to School, Brookings-Harbor! 🐾
The Brookings-Harbor School District is excited to welcome our students, families, and staff to the 2025–26 school year! Together, we begin a year focused on Student Success, Staff Success, and Relationships—the core priorities that guide everything we do.

✨ Our Mission:
In partnership with families and community, we will cultivate a safe, highly effective, and collaborative learning environment where every student can succeed.

 
✅ First Week of School Highlights
Mon, Aug. 25 – First day for 6th graders (AMS) & 9th graders (BHHS); orientation appointments for K–5 students

📵 Phones Off. Learning On.
This year, we’re strengthening our personal electronic device policy to support focused classrooms. Devices should be off and away during learning time so that students stay present and engaged.

 
🖊 School Supplies & Support
Our district provides many school supplies—including notebooks, pencils, art supplies, calculators, and Chromebooks—to reduce family costs. Students should bring a backpack, water bottle, lunch box (if needed), and for grades 5–8, a 3-ring binder.

 
🌐 Brookings-Harbor Online Academy
For families seeking flexible learning, BHOA (Grades K–12) is open for enrollment. Details and registration ➡️ BHOA Website
