Fourth graders traveled back in time as they explored the lives of the Eastern Woodland Indians. Students learned how these Native American tribes lived, what they wore, how they built their homes, and how they used natural resources to survive. This hands-on experience helped bring history to life in a meaningful and memorable way.

Our 2nd-grade students had an amazing hands-on learning experience at the Apple Store in Manhasset! They explored the world of coding and music creation during engaging sessions on Coding and GarageBand, sparking creativity and problem-solving skills.

A special highlight of the trip—Mr. Gimondo, our principal, and Mrs. Haandraats, our superintendent of elementary, joined a session to learn alongside the students! It was wonderful to see our school leaders embracing technology and creativity with our young learners.

A huge thank you to Brandon and Lincoln from Apple for making this experience so interactive and inspiring. Our students left feeling like true digital creators! 🎶🚀 #JFKLearns #AppleEducation

JFK's third and fourth grade ENL students had an exciting visit to the
Alley Pond Environmental Center, where they eagerly explored the world of animals and their young. Guided by an APEC expert, they learned about a variety of species, such as birds, frogs, and turtles. The
children asked many questions and even interacted with live animals.
The day wrapped up with a fantastic nature walk, making it a memorable and educational experience for everyone as they discovered how animals nurture their offspring.
