Thanks to parents, staff members, and other supporters in the Brickton
Community, our school raised $344.76 through shopping with their Target REDcard. It’s an easy way to raise funds for Brickton
where you shop using your Target Redcard, registered to Brickton, and Target

school ID code: 1851. Use the REDcard anytime you shop, and Brickton earns
money. Thanks for supporting Brickton
while you shop!
Getting to Know You: Each week this section
will highlight one staff member and their answer to the question: How do you
express your creativity?
Cheryl LaCost, Head of
School
As a child, I enjoyed playing piano, viola, and cello, though I have not
continued playing. Now I like to sing,
dance, write and crochet, but my continuing love has always been painting. I began with oils, moved to acrylics and in
recent years switched to watercolors. I
especially enjoy the challenge of planning out a piece, deciding which
techniques I will try in different areas, to achieve the overall desired
effect.
