A Fourth Grade Experience

As we return to school, we wanted to share with you some miscellaneous photos and videos from the last few months.

In the following slideshow and video, you will see students:

• playing with their Kindergarten buddies
• at work in writing, math, science, and music
• sharing farm articles with family
• welcoming special guests (both human and piglet)
• visiting Plymouth Church, the New York Times, the Schomburg Center, and Weeksville

Enjoy and happy new year!
