BROOKLINE ACTIVITIES AND RESOURCES

This page posts information about Brookline activities and resources that are student or town focused. Generally, it is information from the Town of Brookline or local organizations (as opposed to personal businesses or classifieds). It is not a comprehensive list. Most of the items come from information that organizations have sent to the PTO, with a request to share it. 

This page is for information sharing only; items posted here are neither vetted nor endorsed by the PTO. Families are responsible for researching further information about the programs.
