FSES preschoolers recently enjoyed a
field trip to Roer’s Zoofari in Reston. The students fed goats, rode camels,
and went on a bumpy safari ride. A
terrific time was had by all!
We are excited to announce that Franklin Sherman E.S. is
going to the next level of providing our students and staff with a healthier
lunch! Beginning on Thursday, May 31, we will be implementing the “Real
Food for Kids” Salad Bar. All students will select their fruits and
vegetables for lunch from the salad bar. Then they may complete their
lunch by choosing either the salad bar protein and grains or the hot entrée
listed on the menu for that day. Students will practice salad bar
etiquette and new procedures for the lunch line before the salad bar
opens. We are excited that our students will have so many fresh fruits
and vegetables to choose from each day and look forward to joining many other
FCPS schools that have had the opportunity to implement the salad bar
successfully this school year!
