In every corner of our district, there are people who show up with heart, dedication, and quiet strength — often without the spotlight they deserve. This week, we are taking a moment to celebrate them.
We are starting with our incredible security team. They greet the earliest arrivals, watch over our buildings long after the last dismissal, and bring comfort simply by being there. Their steady presence keeps our schools safe and allows our community to thrive.

Ms. Abrams and Ms. Klein’s class at Franklin had a great time exploring science with our Glitter Germs experiment! Students followed directions, used their AAC devices to read and identify important vocabulary, and had so much fun learning how germs spread. A fantastic hands-on learning day!

Franklin School: Students in Mrs. Grover's class turned their classroom floor into a life-size coordinate plane ! They practiced plotting ordered pairs by moving across the grid, “walking the x” and then “climbing the y, ”to find and stand on their correct point. making learning integers hands-on and fun. #ItsGoodToBeaFalcon
Franklin School: Our Junior Peers Falcons showed the true meaning of gratitude and giving. 💛

We are so proud of our leaders for stepping up and spreading kindness throughout our community.
Great job, Junior Peers!
