Read. Imagine. Grow.
FRiES (Fernbrook Reading Is Essential Schoolwide) has begun. Make sure that each week, your child tracks the minutes they read at home (not including homework) and fill out an online form. The form opens Thursdays at 7:00 AM and will close Friday at 11:59 PM. Please note that the form link to submit your reading minutes will be the same for all four weeks.
We have four fun reading challenges, one for each week. If a student completes the reading challenge that week, they will be entered into a drawing to win a Scholastic Gift Card that can be redeemed at the Spring Fernbrook Scholastic Book Fair. One winner will be selected per grade at the end of the FRiES Reading program

The FRiES program begins Friday, January 31, 2025 and runs through Thursday, February 27, 2025.

Hero Dance: Friday, February 7, 2025 | 7:00-8:30 PM (Doors Open at 6:45 PM)
Come and join other Fernbrook families at the Second Annual Hero Dance Event at the Fernbrook School Gym. Fernbrook Students will have the opportunity to bring "their hero" (one guest per Fernbrook Student, 18 years or older) and dance the night away. We encourage you to "dress to Impress!"
There will be a live DJ, Photo Booth and a craft table. Food and refreshments will be available for purchase.
This event is open to current Fernbrook students only. Additionally, only one Hero (adult 18 years or older) per child will be admitted. Space is limited so sign up soon!
We hope to see you all there!
Not Picked as the Hero for the Hero Dance but want to join?
The only way the Fernbrook PTO can put on these events is with the help from volunteers. We have an amazing committee for the Hero Dance but will need extra hands to help with the setup, clean up, concession stand and other various activities at the dance. If you sign up for a slot, you can welcome to stay for the evening. Heroes are also welcome to sign up. Please sign up for a volunteer slot, today!
Join your Fernbrook friends at NJ Battle Zones (in Randolph) on February 17, 2025 at 2:00 PM for an exciting (and safe) 90 minutes of fun to support the Fernbrook Fifth Graders.
A portion of the admission fee ($36.25) will go toward the fifth-grade students for their end of the year events. Please register for the event ahead of time, but walk-ins will be welcome.
Questions about the event? Please email the Fifth Grade Committee at: grade5committee@fernbrookpto.org
