On Monday, August 18, Brook Forest Elementary officially unveiled its new, fully accessible playground in a ribbon-cutting ceremony. Families, staff, and community members gathered to celebrate inclusive design that enables play for all students. The project was made possible by community fundraising, with support from the school’s PTO, sponsors, and donors.
