Warming Up With Spelling
First and Second Grade are learning about the importance of a warm-up before they start their PE class. Incorporated into each warm-up are various exercises to get their bodies ready to play. The students work in groups to spell each other’s names during the ABC Fitness Warm-Up to help practice their spelling too!
New Campus Stewardship Initiative
Being physically on campus is a great way for students, especially those learning virtually, to connect to their school and feel a sense of pride and ownership. Every Saturday (at least until the weather turns), we’re inviting families to help with some outside jobs, like weeding and picking up sticks. You can come whenever you want on a Saturday and stay as long or as little as you like. If other families are on campus at the same time as yours, please remember to socially distance. If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, click here for details and to sign up. Thanks for helping keep our campus beautiful!
Jonathan Introduces Himself
I’m thrilled to join the community caring for facilities at PMFS with David Mettler. My name is Jonathan Perry, and I am the lucky co-parent of two PMFS alumni: Jasper (‘10) and Saras (‘12). PMFS has been a bedrock to their growth as people and to much of our family life in Philadelphia. I’m very grateful for this opportunity to give back to this very special place.
I come to Plymouth with an academic background in philosophy, human geography and architecture and a professional career —after a few years as a Pre-K teacher —primarily in residential construction and remodeling. Hands-on learning and design thinking knit it all together, and I’ll bring that spirit to the buildings and grounds of this lovely school.
