Folsom Preparatory School -

🗓Families, don't forget we have our 2026-2027 Info Night next week, on Thursday, January 15! This is a great opportunity to learn more about our expansion into Middle School starting with 6th grade. We'll also be sharing info about enrollment for TK-6th grade.

👉🏼Please register online at https://www.folsomprep.com/page/infonight and share this with other families who are looking for a school where their child can blossom.

We realize that the middle school years are so crucial in a child's development, especially socially and emotionally. Folsom Prep's middle school will continue teaching core values, building leadership skills, and nurturing every student to help them reach their full potential. 💫

Your child deserves a safe environment where they can grow and thrive, build confidence, receive an excellent academic experience, and prepare for the next stage of their life. This continuity of education, with small class sizes, tailored instruction, hands-on and project-based learning sets students up for success.

January is filled with SO MUCH GOOD STUFF! 🤗 Here's what's happening this month! 🗓

Welcome back to school! We're over here jumping for joy to see everyone again! It's a new year and while normally everyone makes a resolution, we want to set an intention. Let's make the rest of this school year even more AMAZING! Who's ready to go? 🙋‍♀️

Something special happens in STEAM class. Students become even more creative, using their imagination to design and build. It's not theoretical learning. It's hands-on learning. It's real-life learning.

Folsom Prep's weekly STEAM classes inspire students to think outside the box, work together and individually, and solve problems.

This month's Teacher Feature is all about Ms. Ward! Our favorite librarian brings books to life, helping nurture a love of reading in all our students. Let's get to know her!

In her spare time, Ms. Ward loves spending time with her 8-month-old terrier mix puppy, Ginny. 🐕She's doing really well in her training classes, and a few weeks ago, her trainer asked them to be part of a news segment promoting dog training on Good Day Sacramento! So cool!

They also like going on sniff-aris, which are walks in the park where she sniffs around. Ginny loves to cuddle with Ms. Ward on the couch to watch TV, and sometimes Pete the cat 🐈 joins in once he sees Ginny napping. Ms. Ward also loves playing games with friends and family.

Of course, we had to ask Ms. Ward what her favorite book is, and she's got a few great ones to share for every age, including adults:

📚Picture Book: The Book with No Pictures by B. J. Novak, because it always makes students laugh.
📚Graphic Novel: The New Kid by Jerry Craft, because everyone can relate to being the new kid.
📚Upper Elementary Novel: Island of the Blue Dolphins by Scott O'Dell, because she enjoyed it when she was a student.
📚Nonfiction: Any book in the Who Would Win series by Jerry Pallotta, because it's always surprising which animal might win in a fight!
📚Fiction for Adults: The Women by Kristin Hannah
