Tech and Instructional Coaches @LongwoodCSD are rocking CS and coding! I was lucky enough to observe Mr. Falk, Ms. Ferrante, and @TechKnowCoach as they taught 2nd and 3rd grade students coding at CEW and Ridge. I’m so proud of this team of CS leaders! @BootUpPD @amazonnews

To celebrate World Read Aloud Day on February 1, 2023, Mrs. Grogan's students listened to stories read live by various authors. Then, they took turns reading aloud stories to the class and asking questions. What a great way to celebrate! @LongwoodCSD
