TY @AMRomero109 for spending time yesterday with National Junior Honor Society S’s, sharing her story, providing inspiration for our future leaders, S’s were also able to tour the @NYSCapitolVisit which was quite memorable, good start to the week! #fmslearns @GuilderlandCSD

I really enjoy welcoming our incoming 6th grade class to FMS for their transition day, it gives them a little taste of a day in the life as a 6th grader, great group of kiddos, excited for them to join us in the fall #fmslearns @GuilderlandCSD @fmsptaguild

Proud of these two #M6D S’s who created an online book catalog of their T’s classroom library using coding skills during their free time, look out for the @GuilderlandCSD communications about this impressive accomplishment! @cheri_hart #fmslearns @casdaprincipals @fmsptaguild

#Hiawatha6B host families this afternoon as their children take them through a gallery walk learning about all the activities & projects they’ve been working on, I liked the Hammurabi code social justice comic strip task #fmslearns @GuilderlandCSD @fmsptaguild

5th annual Seneca House of Pancakes breakfast, wonderful tradition, building community & relationships is important to focus on, we have amazing T’s & staff who do it well! @GuilderlandCSD @casdaprincipals #fmslearns #luckyprincipal

I’m always impressed the way our T’s provide ways for all our S’s to access the curriculum, recognizing our changing S demographics our T’s have shifted their instructional strategies so all S’s can be successful #grateful #fmslearns @GuilderlandCSD @fmsptaguild
