4th Graders at the State Capitol.
Fourth grade visited the Capitol building in Albany. They were able to see the Assembly Chamber, The Million Dollar Staircase and The Whispering Fireplaces. Unfortunately, they did not stumble upon the ghost that is rumored to haunt the Capitol! Click here for more photos!

Otto the Auto
The Kindergartners really enjoyed Otto the Automobile recently. Otto is a remote control vehicle sponsored by AAA. They learned a lot about safety for the summer. They know to wear their helmets, stay in the back yard, don't talk to strangers without an adult, and to sit in the back seat in a booster until their 8th birthday!
Tis the Season.....
The year is coming to a close quickly. Not sure what is happening at school? Please look at the website calendar or contact your classroom teacher.

Where has the year gone!? We can hardly believe that not only are we into the last quarter of the year, but we are also organizing the schedule for final exams and final projects and presentations. Listed below you will find the exam/project schedule for each grade level in the middle school. It would be helpful to your youngster(s) if you kept this schedule visible so they can plan accordingly and arrive at school prepared to give us their best thinking and show us what they have learned this year!
Grade 7:
Thursday, June 13 ELA/SS Project Presentation
Grade 8:
Friday, June 14 ELA/SS Project Presentation

As we approach the end of the year, let’s continue some practices:
