FKS Field Day Fun!
Field Day is in full swing! ☀️ The sun is shining, games are going strong, water fun is everywhere, and laughter fills the air! Huge shoutout to our amazing PE Teacher, Ms. Ressland and our parent volunteers. What a beautifully planned day!
We were thrilled to meet our incoming class of Kindergarten students earlier this week. Students were able to meet their classmates, teachers, faculty and participate in some diferent activities. We cannot wait to see them in September as they begin their journey here at FKS!

Today’s 5th grade trip to Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty gave students a firsthand look at the immigrant experience and the history that shaped our nation. A meaningful way to connect classroom learning to real-world stories. 🗽❤️🤍💙
The PTO threw a fabulous end of year Movie Night for our 5th Grade Students! The celebrations keep coming as our 5th graders spend their final days here at OFRS! par🥳🎉🎊
ATTENTION 5th GRADE PARENTS!
Thanks to the FKS PTA, Macaroni Kid Morris and the Haslett Team: KW Metropolitan Realty for our prize today! We finished 2nd place in the Morris County Spirit Contest. #GoWolves
We were honored to have members of the American Veterans Association of Washington Township Post 1776 to share with the FKS community a recognition of Memorial Day to remember and honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice while serving our country around the world in defense of our freedoms. The veterans with us served during war and peace time and represented almost all branches of our military. We welcomed them to FKS so that we could recognize and thank them for their selfless service to our country, and as a reminder on how important veterans are to our nation and the nations wherever they served.
Congratulations to those students who represented FKS during the evening 'Night of the Notables' event! See some of the students below.
This week at OFRS, students from Preschool through Grade 5 had the meaningful opportunity to engage in Mindfulness Activities. Through these sessions, they became more in tune with their minds and bodies, learning valuable strategies to self-regulate and stay grounded. It was inspiring to see our young learners empowered to take control of their thoughts and actions, all while striving to be the healthiest version of themselves.
Big thanks to the Long Valley Junior Women’s Club for putting together the 26th Annual Middle School Photo Contest! It was great to see all the amazing photos and celebrate the hard work of our talented students. We really appreciate our awesome partnership with the LVJWC and all they do for our school community! In June, a photo gallery will be displayed at the Washington Township Public Library. Feel free to preview our winners here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1V72RZUxMvLUK3aJAwPeMhhPz63VcZUNa/view?usp=sharing
Congratulations to 5th grade students Emma , Julia , and Hadley for taking on an amazing Service Learning Project. As we try to encourage and foster leadership and community service in our children we are extremely proud of the work these young ladies are doing. If you would like to help out and donate some old crayons, send them to school!
Old Farmers Road School hosted our local veterans for a breakfast, flag raising, and a demonstration on how to properly fold the flag. Although the ceremony had to be moved indoors because of the weather, we still had a magnificent event with the veterans, staff, students, members of the board, the mayor, local police and local politicians. The ceremony was capped off with some bagpipes courtesy of an OFRS dad - Mr. Barnett! Thank you everyone for supporting our local heroes.
On Monday, May 19th, the fifth grade from OFRS "released" the trout that they nurtured from eggs to frye, from October though May. Mrs. Domareki, the Trout Advisor and the fifth grade teachers accompanied the students to the river where not only put the frye in the river, but they also learned about river organisms, took a hike, had a scavenger hunt and a picnic lunch!
This past week, seventh-grade students visited the New Jersey Sea Grant Consortium in Sandy Hook. Equipped with fishing waders, students and staff waded into the water to search for local aquatic life and try their hand at dip-netting—a traditional Native American fishing technique.
Good Luck to the LVMS Destination Imagination Teams, the Mischievous Muppets and Medieval Marauders at Destination Imagination's Global Finals in Kansas City this weekend! Global Finals is the culminating tournament for the Destination Imagination competition. LVMS is sending two of three teams that will represent New Jersey at the competition and will compete with teams from the United States and 13 other countries around the world!
Who doesn't love some fun and games when it's indoor recess?!!! #GoWolves
