Thank you to the Ben PTA for hosting our "First Day Back" Faculty Breakfast.

Mouse is excited for fall because that means it is time to decorate pumpkins! But one is missing. Where could it have gone?

Autumn is awesome! Leaves change color. Animals fly south or get ready to hibernate. People harvest crops and dress up as scary creatures for Halloween. And then there are pickup football games to play, Thanksgiving foods to eat, leaf piles to jump in―all the amazing things that happen as the air turns crisp and cool.

Students in Miss Thompson and Mrs. Masnica's class practiced using cooperation and communication skills in their first STEM challenge of Third Grade. Students had to work together to save their worm Fred, put his life preserver on him, and put him back in his boat using only paper clips to touch their materials. They also discussed how teamwork and communication are important to successful science investigations.

The Ben Franklin staff welcomes back parents and families for the start of the 2023-2024 school year.

Geico generously donated school supplies for our students and a scrumptious, generous lunch for BEN Staff.

In celebration of Guru and Inspirer HDH Mahant Swami Maharaj's 90th Birthday, the BAPS Edison team delivered candies for all the students, faculty, and staff on September 13, 2023.
