What a great start to our Spirit Week here at FHGS. Yesterday was book character day and our students showed off some of their favorite characters. This is just a few of the pictures from yesterday. More to come all week long with our awesome Spirit Week!
Our students enjoyed a performance by Karen Montanaro. Karen has performed in hundreds of schools entertaining and educating students about the art forms of mime and dance and uses her phenomenal technique and control in both ballet and performance-mime to tell stories through movement. Some of our students and Mrs. Infurna were asked to participate in the performance. It was awesome to see the reaction from our students and watch them try out some of the techniques while they were watching. Thank you Karen for sharing your art with us!
Today FHGS 1st graders walked to FHUMHS so they could cheer on the Field Hockey team as they proceeded to win the first playoff game. Congratulations! And thank you to the little super fans for their enthusiasm!
