Fire Safety at SRLA

The Millburn Fire Department visited our Pre-K through 2nd Grade students this week. They learned all about fire safety and even had some practice at stop, drop, and rolling. It was a fun and informative session for all!

Food Truck Festival is NEXT Friday

You don't want to miss out on the biggest adults only event of the fall! Come out to socialize with other parents, have fun, and raise money for the school.

Think: corn hole competitions, delicious food, raffle prizes, wine, beer and more!

 

Please consider signing up to volunteer! We especially need help setting up and cleaning up.

Buy Tickets

The class with the highest percentage of parent participation will win an

ICE CREAM party.

Inside the Classroom...

Lots of learning is happening in First Grade! Ms. Romero had her students plant radish seeds and decorate the pots to observe the life cycle of plants and bring their science lessons into real life. 

 

Reading is another big focus for the First Grade. Each child receives daily books that are individualized to their reading level to foster reading skills and instill a love of reading. The students practice writing sentences about the books they are reading and share what they've learned with the class. 

Keep up the good work First Grade!
