Todd Barrett, Natural Gas Mechanic with National Grid, and Michael Campbell, Patrol Officer with the Warren County Sheriff’s Office, visited with our fourth graders for our fifth career exploration day!
Mr. Barrett showed the students the equipment he uses to repair and install natural gas lines. He also brought a scratch and sniff card so the students could experience what a gas leak would smell like (hint - stinky). Patrol Officer Campbell talked about daily life as a police officer and let students check out some of his gear. Thank you to Ms. LaVine and Mr. Woodell-Freire for organizing this event! 😄

Our seventh graders participated in the annual “mock” Ceremony of Twelve celebration in English class to coincide with reading “The Giver” by Lois Lowry. 📖 Each student also had to write a speech stating whether they accepted or appealed Mrs. Prevost’s decision - this year’s group did an outstanding job!! 👏

What a turnout! Family Bingo Night at the Fort Ann Firehouse was a HUGE success! The class of 2024 and their advisor, Mrs. Passino, would like to thank the Fort Ann senior class families, the Fort Ann community, the Fort Ann Volunteer Fire Department , and all the local businesses who donated to this event! Thank you so much for your support and a super fun evening! With all the community support, the Class of 2024 raised over $2,000!
Mrs. Gadway’s fifth graders had the best time playing in the snow! ❄️ They built a fort with five tunnels, a slide, and three snowmen! ⛄️⛄️⛄️ It turned an ordinary day into a great winter adventure!
Calling all sweethearts! Get ready to put on your dancing shoes! ❤️💕💜
