100% of the proceeds from the Silent Auction help support the school: arts and music instruction, front and back office staff and sorely needed supplies for every classroom and the science labs.
"The 10th annual Community Fair will bring the school community and the Brentwood community together for fun, food and an all-round wonderful day," said Brentwood Science Magnet Elementary School Principal Ms. Aleta Taylor. "The day will celebrate our beautiful campus and raise funds for art and music, which is vital to our children’s education."
Conducted by the Friends of Brentwood Science Elementary, the school’s nonprofit parent-teacher organization, the event is organized and staffed by an amazing group of volunteers.
