We highlighted them in our furry friends of Folsom Prep feature in August, and you've likely heard about them from your child. But let's take a moment to talk about our chickens🐔! In our garden, we've got a chicken coop (thank you Mr. Eric for building it) and every week, a different class gets to take care of the chickens.
Learning happens inside AND outside of the classroom and caring for animals helps students learn about responsibility while getting some Vitamin D and outdoor time🌞! The best part, at the end of each week, families can enjoy some Folsom Prep farm fresh eggs 😊

Mr. Pricklepants is leading reptilian reading time! 🦎🐊🐢
Actually, we can't be fully sure of his reading abilities...he's not a "read out loud" kind of bearded dragon. 😂
But nonetheless, students in Mrs. Castro's class love reading, especially about reptiles! 📚

We're just over a month into the new school year, and we're beyond thrilled to see how our students have taken initiative in forming clubs! One of our awesome fourth graders started the Habits Club, where during recess, students meet up and do a deeper dive into the 7 Habits of Happy Kids. 🙂 Talk about being proactive! 🙌
These are lifelong skills that students will take with them into adulthood. Way to be leaders! 👏
