Every educator wants to engage kids, so how does Fulton School use the Montessori philosophy to do this differently? Find out more in our latest blog post.

Always beautiful to see what stories our youngest students are trying to tell us with the help of the Montessori moveable alphabet.
Come out and enjoy some middle school basketball tonight at TFS when our Eagles take on Gateway Science Academy at 4 pm.
FRIDAY: PAJAMA DAY
Upper School Student Council is sponsoring an all-school pajama day this Friday, December 14. Cost is $2.00 if your child would like to wear their pajamas to school! Students can pay a Student Council member today and Thursday during all lunch periods.
Proceeds benefit StuCo.
Yesterday, the first, second, and third graders had a visitor in their Language Arts class -- Gus.
Gus is a support dog, owned by St. Albans resident Chris Waltmeade. They have been visiting Dr. Steurer's class once a month for several years. The children each take a turn reading a book to Gus. What a great afternoon!
Game Night: Lots of TFS Basketball tonight at Mississippi Valley. The Middle School plays at 5:00 pm, followed by the Varsity Girls at 6:00 pm and the Varsity Boys at 7:30 pm.
We think this dissection looks like artwork!
The high school Environmental Science class dissected owl pellets last week. Owls swallow their prey whole or in large pieces, but they cannot digest fur, teeth, bones, or feathers. These indigestible things get compacted into a pellet which the owl spits out.
The students each got their own pellet which they tediously pulled apart and categorized the contents, which included rodent bones, skulls, and more!
The Lower School students always start Soup Lunch Friday with a holiday book reading with our Head of School Kara Douglass. This year's story: "The Gift of the Magi" by O. Henry.
Tomorrow is one of our favorite traditions here at The Fulton School: All-School Soup Lunch. Parent volunteers prepare and serve lunch so the entire student body and faculty/staff can enjoy a holiday meal together in The Keeping Room. Lunch includes turkey, cheese, and ham sandwiches, a selection of soups (including vegetarian and gluten-free soups), lemonade, and homemade cookies.
Notes: Students don't need to pack a lunch, but certainly are welcome to if they prefer :)
GAME NIGHT: Our three basketball teams play today at Maryville Christian. Middle School game starts at 4:00 pm, followed by the Varsity Girls at 5 pm, and the Varsity Boys at 6:30 pm. Good luck to all of our Eagles!
Our 1-2-3 grade class transformed ordinary paper plates into African tribal masks!
So what's all the hype around Montessori? What makes it so different?

This morning, the preschoolers and kindergartners were amazed to discover that overnight, an elf left snowy footprints all over the classroom. They are having a blast being mini-detectives!

Have you see our chickens' new coop? It's a 6'x12' combo chicken coop crafted in Pennsylvania by the Amish. It is much bigger and sturdier than our last enclosure, plus the Chicken Middle students can easily walk in for cleaning and maintenance.
The coop was aptly named "The Local Yolkals" by John and Barbara Chapin, TFS grandparents who won the naming rights at last year's Trivia Night & Auction.

One week ago today we welcomed back a team of alumni -- literally, a soccer team's worth -- to Rawlins Field at The Fulton School for the annual Thanksgiving Alumni vs. Varsity Soccer Game. What a great afternoon to catch up (and a good deal of them are still sportin' great soccer skills).
