Our first Frankford grown lettuce being delivered to the cafeteria for lunches! You don't get much more local than grown a few steps from the cafeteria and cut fresh every morning. We have more than enough lettuce for this week but hopefully for the next few weeks. We will keep delivering it till we run out. Enjoy!

That's a lot of lettuce! The Frankford Hydroponic lettuce grower is doing great. Maybe too great. Our lettuce plants drank over 35 gallons of fertilized water over spring break and grew several inches. We may be getting some Frankford fresh salads in the cafeteria soon!
We could use some mice! As a 1:1 school, our student Chromebooks are seeing heavy use daily. The touch pads are really struggling and we have a one member tech team who is trying his best to keep up with repairs.
Have a mouse at home that you aren't using? Send it in with them! They'll thank you! With testing coming in May, the mouse will make their lives easier with the drop downs too!
And that’s a wrap! 5th Grade Duolingo champions and a little “dabbing” adios!
