Stay Safe
  • Complete the health attestation form for each child.

  • Check your child for symptoms of Covid-19 and take their temperature every day before school. If your child’s temperature is 100 F or 37.8 C or above, keep them home.
  • Watch the Pierce health and safety video with your child (5 min).
  • Get your flu shot (required for all Brookline students)

Stay Informed

Stay Connected
  • Login or activate your account through Membership Toolkit, our Pierce School directory where you can find contact information for other parents in your child's class or friends from previous classes  for mutual support.

We are currently planning a Halloween parade for younger children and we need your help to make it happen, so please email us if you can lend a hand. We are open to other ideas so join our monthly coffees (held virtually the first Friday of the month - keep an eye on The Bridge for meeting times and links).
