All About Earth Day

Earth Day is celebrated on April 22nd. It is a day to celebrate the environment.

Learning To Count Change

Students were practicing with our play money on learning the skill of how to count change back to a customer. This was a hands-on lesson that was a lot of fun and the class seemed to catch on quickly. Handling money is a vital life skill that all students will need to be proficient in before entering the workforce.

Missing our Students

After two months of distance learning, everyone was looking for things to do! At High Road School of New London, we developed "care packages" for each of our students. They contained snacks, outdoor activities, card games, mindfulness coloring books, school supplies, and stress-balls to help try and keep boredom away! We were then able to drive to each student's home to deliver them and say hi! It was so nice to see everyone in person! We miss all of our students! Learn more about our school today.
