After studying the life cycle of a butterfly and watching the four stages of their metamorphosis, Mrs. Bax and Ms. Kaitlin's students released their butterflies! Just look at the excitement and pure joy on the students faces as they watched the butterflies start the next part of their journey.

Lots of student service happening at FJA these past two weeks! Our elementary students raised over $1,400 for The American Heart Association through their Jump Rope for Heart event.

Pledges for the Trash-a-Thon are due this Friday, and students will select to which environmental non-profits they want to donate monies! Thanks for your support, families!
