Classroom Highlights
2nd grade celebrated the completion of their Opinion Writing unit. Students collected evidence and gave reasons why a character in their favorite book was the best. We are very proud of them!
This year's Career Day was a huge success. Our 6th, 7th and 8th Grade students were able to meet and interact with a wide variety of professionals and experts. We are so grateful for the time and effort of our presenters.
First grade held an Animal Wax Museum to celebrate the end of their informational writing unit! Students researched an animal and presented their books to very special visitors.
On Monday, Folsom School participated in class lessons regarding the Solar Eclipse. We also were able to view the eclipse safely with our glasses provided by the Folsom BOE. It was a great day!
2nd grade read the book Strega Nona and completed a book study. We even got a visit from Strega Nona herself! Also ended the unit with a fancy cheese and pasta party!
Congratulations to Leah Tierno who took third place at the Delaware Valley Science Fair at the Expo Center in Oaks, PA. Leah will now be moving on to the ThermoFisher Scientific Junior Innovators Challenge 2024 this summer.
