COME WALK IN YOUR CHILD'S FOOTSTEPS

Trenton FAST sponsored its beginning of the year event.  "Come Walk In Your Child's Footsteps". Parents are encouraged to visit their child's school and become active in the lessons.  Parents became students for the time that they are in the classrooms.  Participation in areas of reading, story telling, musical expression, creative art, science, social studies, and physical education were just a few of the events for the day.  Approximately 80 parents became students on Wednesday, November 18, 2009. Our student council and safety patrol volunteers were the hosts for the registration and light breakfast.   

A very special thank you to our parent liaisons, FAST members, parent volunteers and Franklin School Staff. Parents participated in a raffle for an all equipped starter book bag.  The winners were George VanBlarcom and Cindy Lopez. Each parent received a recyclable water bottle which was provided by NJEA, TEA, TPA and NJEA Pride.
