Our fifth graders got some outdoor reading time last week!
Congratulations to the Fort Ann students who sang in the All-County Chorus Festival and to our band members who played in the All-County Jazz Band. The jazz band was led by our very own Ms. Lorenzo, and the junior high chorus was led by Mrs. Ashton!
Owen performed in the recent area all-state mixed chorus at Proctor’s Theatre. His high score at the NYSSMA festival in May earned him a spot in this competitive and prestigious event. He was also the only singer from Washington County in the choir. Congratulations, Owen!

Election Day in Kindergarten! This year's candidates were, for Mrs. Nassivera’s class, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, and for Ms. Skiba's class Squirrel (from “The Leaf Thief/Snow Thief”). After counting all the votes, The Very Hungry Caterpillar was our winner! Our kindergarten students had so much fun learning about voting and campaigning, and then casting their very own ballots!
