The Most Influential Educator Awards Banquet will be held on Sunday, May 22 (BEHS) and Sunday, June 5 (BCHS) at 6pm at Western Racquet Club in Elm Grove. The inspiration for this program originated with Elmbrook parent, Jane Peavler. The Elmbrook Education Foundation is delighted to annually sponsor the program in an effort to honor educators who have made a special impact on Elmbrook students. This year, the Brookfield Junior Women’s Club will sponsor a delicious portion of our event, the desserts.
The 8th annual Elmbrook Education Foundation Golf Open will take place on Tuesday, June 14 at Ironwood Country Club.

Funding LAUNCH, a program that has grown from 70 students to nearly 500, will help create opportunities for students to expand their profession-based learning, and provide an incentive to make and create for our community.
