History came to life at C.V. Starr Intermediate School this week during their annual Revolutionary Encampment Days!

C.V. Starr students brought magic, mischief, and incredible talent to life in their unforgettable production of Matilda Jr. The Musical.

A group of young people, some smiling and others focused on their meals, are seated at a table in what appears to be a cafeteria or dining hall setting.

From tapping trees to topping pancakes, our 4th graders enjoyed the sweet rewards of a beloved Brewster maple syrup tradition!

Guided by art teacher Megan Naclerio, students explored self-expression while building key skills that reflect the Profile of a Brewster Student.
