Miss Musuras' Sixth Grade Social Studies class at Reutter School recently participated in an interactive government simulation, bringing the three branches of government to life. Students were divided into legislative, executive, and judicial branches, each tasked with fulfilling their specific roles in the law-making process.

Sixth Grade Scientists Explore Owl Pellets
Students in Mrs. Zemaitatis and Ms. Reim’s sixth-grade science classes recently became forensic scientists as they dissected owl pellets to uncover the eating habits of these fascinating birds of prey. The hands-on activity allowed students to examine the undigested bones, fur, and other remains found within the pellets, helping them analyze food chains and predator-prey relationships in ecosystems.
Through careful observation and classification, students identified various small animal skeletons, reinforcing their understanding of adaptations, digestion, and ecological interactions. This engaging lesson not only sparked curiosity but also provided a deeper appreciation for nature’s complex balance.
District Faculty and Staff Trained in Life-Saving CPR and Emergency Response
During the recent March District Professional Learning Day, over 50 faculty and staff members across the Township of Franklin Public Schools participated in vital emergency response training, focusing on CPR and Stop the Bleed concepts. These life-saving skills are essential in ensuring the safety and well-being of our school community.
The training was led by Mr. Theodore Peters, Reutter School Principal and District School Safety Specialist, along with Mrs. Jessica Swanfeld, MFJ School Nurse. Participants learned critical techniques, including response to individuals with an obstructed airway, proper AED use, and methods to control severe bleeding in emergency situations.

Sixth Grade Library Helpers Spread Reading Joy Across Schools
During the Read Across America Week celebration, Caroline L. Reutter School took an approach to engage younger students across our school district in reading. Sixth-grade library helpers have stepped into the shoes of reading ambassadors, reaching out to elementary students at the Mary F. Janvier School with reading various Dr. Seuss books.
The students enthusiastically embraced this leadership role, recognizing the significance of reading in developing communication skills and fostering creativity. By reading to younger students, these sixth graders not only improved their own literacy skills but also inspired elementary kids to nurture a love for books and learning.
The Caroline L. Reutter School is fostering a community of young learners who appreciate the joy of reading. As these sixth graders pass on their love for literature, they help to build a foundation of literacy and creativity in the younger students, contributing positively to their educational journey.
Sixth grade students in Miss Musuras' ELA class started off their day with providing constructive feedback to a peer's writing prompt.
