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!
5th grade science class performing an experiment that simulates adaptation with different types of bird beaks.
8th grade flight curriculum in the books. A few short flights and a few hard crashes. Overall the kids seemed to have fun learning about what makes an airplane, helicopter, or drone fly

Installment payments must be made in advance no later than the first of the month for the proceeding month. Payment can be made in cash or by personal check. Please note: The annual fee for this program takes into consideration all scheduled school closings as well as emergency closings i.e. snow days. This program was created to provide an inclusion opportunity for our preschool students with disabilities class. We therefore have a limited number of seats available and may have to use a lottery system for selection. Any incoming Preschool student must be four years of age on or before October 1, 2022. Parent or guardian must furnish the child’s birth certificate, proof of residency in Frankford Township or the Borough of Branchville, and an updated immunization record.

Please visit the Frankford Township School website frankfordschool.org and begin the Pre-registration process. Please print all documents that apply to your situation. Once your registration has been submitted, you will receive an email with links and instructions for uploading the requested documents. If you are unable to upload, you may deliver the documents the date of registration appointment. CHILD FIND: Federal and State Legislation mandates this service be provided to Disabled Children ages 2 to 21. Frankford Township School offers services to disabled children ages 3 to 21 using a multidisciplinary approach. Children who are having significant difficulty in school may be referred to the Child Study Team by parents or appropriate school personnel. Children ages 3-5 who are experiencing a physical, sensory, emotional, communication, cognitive or social difficulty or a measurable developmental impairment may require special education and related services. The term Preschool Disabled means there is an identified, disabling condition and /or measurable developmental impairment that requires special education and related services.
If the parents are concerned about their child’s program, they should feel free to discuss a referral to the Child Study Team with their child’s teacher, guidance counselor, or administrator. The Frankford Township School Child Study Team can be contacted at 973-948-3727, ext. 215 for more information.
