What's more fun than PE class? PE class with Thistle the Therapy Dog. Thank you Long Valley Juniors!!!





BAC students received their copies of A Boy Called Bat with help from a special guest character from the book! Happy reading! One District, One Book!




Members of the National Junior Honor Society had a GREAT time visiting FKS, BAC, and OFRS to celebrate Read Across America Week. Middle schoolers look forward to picking some of their favorites titles to read to our younger students each year.






What an amazing launch to our school wide One Book, One School program today. After a live google meet for the whole school where we reviewed student guesses on what the book might be, we had the big reveal and are pleased to announce every child will be reading A Boy Called Bat! We hand delivered a book to each child today with the help of our guest Skunk! We look forward to partnering with you as you share in the love of reading at home with your child.

In fourth grade, students use benchmark fractions like 1/2, 1/3, 2/3, 1/4, and 3/4 to help them make decisions about rounding. By comparing a fraction to these benchmarks, they can determine whether a number is closer to 0, 1/2, or 1, making estimation more efficient!





Thank you Dr. Marangon for giving an awesome presentation about Australia to our 3rd graders for their cultures and communties unit. We loved your fun facts, photos and stories!
