WHAT IS BRENTWOOD BUDDIES?
Every few weeks Brentwood Buddies will travel to Brentwood Academy in East Palo Alto to read with kindergarteners and first graders. We will use Flex blocks not spent at the school to plan and prepare activities to get the kids excited about reading. Each club member will be assigned one or two buddies, with whom they will work and develop personal relationships.
