The Frankford Music Department represented the school well today at the High Note Festival. The Jazz Band and Chorus earned ratings of Excellent for their performances, and the Concert Band earned a Superior rating! Congratulations to all the groups that performed!
5th Grade ADVEX fought hard against each other and students from the Technology Club. All created custom-made battle bots which fought to knock each other off the work tables today in our epic battle that may have included spotlights, loud music, and some cheering. Great job on some great builds!

Mr Aroune and some band students visited Pre-K today to show them different instruments. Thank you students for sharing your music with Pre-K!
Technology Club is exploring its building and repairing capabilities on many of the things that were donated by the Frankford community over the years. We are building go-carts, RC cars, drones, battle bots, generators, and updating last year's hovercraft build. Lots of independent learning going on after school at Frankford. We are always looking for battery-operated, DC, or RC stuff or technology or shop-related equipment. It all gets used here somehow and it's how this program happens.
Today, Frankford Art students, Creative Writing students, and members of the Frankford Chorus, Band and Jazz Band all went to Teen Arts at SCCC! They spent the day putting their talents on display as well as participating in workshops and activities. Way to represent the school, Bulldogs!
Thank you to the Sussex County Miners for coming to our school to read to our students. What a great way to celebrate Love of Reading Week!
