🌟 Teacher Spotlight- Meg Giardini 🌟 

Why I Love Teaching: 

“I love so many things about being a teacher, but my absolute favorite part is working with the kids.  I love the age of my high school students, and I find it such a privilege to be a part of 4 of the most important years of their lives. I also really love exposing them to literature with such timeless themes and watching them fall in love with the books as much as I have.” 

Best Advice for Students: 

“Appreciate the incredible learning environment we have at Friendship - it is a great one!  Work hard and seek help when you need it – now and all throughout life! There are so many people around you who want to see you thrive. Always aim to be kind and compassionate and to be a good human being.” 

Favorite Hobby: 

“I love to read. The library is one of my favorite places.” 

Favorite Book: 

To Kill a Mockingbird, Jane Eyre, The Kiterunner, The Things They Carried

Four of our 9th grade students were selected to attend the Courageous Leadership Summit this week. FCS joined many other local freshman to participate in a day of team building, empowerment, and fun in Ellicottville. These students will attend two more days of growing and learning around leadership throughout the year. What a wonderful experience for these students!

Friendship 4th Grade traveled to Lockport to take a ride on the Erie Canal! Students got a hands on experience on how the lock system works and using pulleys before a presentation on the history of the canal. Students ended the trip with a ride through the locks and an elevation change of 50ft.
