Happy Monday, Frierson Families!
It's a new week, and we're giving you even more little peeks into the Montessori magic happening in our classrooms! We're building excitement for our upcoming Parent Observation Week, November 9–13.

This is your opportunity to step inside your scholar's classroom and see Montessori learning in action — from independence and exploration to creativity and collaboration. Be on the lookout for a sign-up opportunity to reserve your classroom observation.

Until then, enjoy a few more peek-a-boo moments throughout the week!

When we learn, we grow!

Day 2 of Red Ribbon truly proved that Opposites attract! We had the cutest "students" and the absolute cutest "teachers" show up today! Tomorrow is "Great Minds Twin Alike-We Choose to be Drug-free!" Team up with a friend, sibling or staff member and dress alike. In the meantime, enjoy this "Peek-a-Boo" from one of our very own....

Who says you can't make BIG moves in your pajamas?!

Today, our Frierson scholars and staff were dressed for comfort as we kicked off Red Ribbon Week with “Follow Your Dreams, Stay Drug-Free!” But the excitement didn't stop there!

We were honored to receive a special in-person visit from Superintendent Huggins, accompanied by other CCSD officials, who came to Frierson to personally congratulate our scholars and staff on our recent growth on the South Carolina School Report Card — moving from AVERAGE to GOOD! ⭐

What a wonderful surprise and an even sweeter reminder that hard work, dedication and a little Frierson magic can turn BIG dreams into BIG accomplishments!

A heartfelt THANK YOU to Superintendent Huggins and our CCSD leadership for taking the time to celebrate this milestone with us in person. Your encouragement and recognition mean so much to our Frierson family!

We've been EXCELLENT before, and we're reaching for those stars once again! 🌟

Tomorrow's Red Ribbon Day is OPPOSITE DAY! Do the opposite of drugs-make positive choices! Scholars can dress like teachers and teachers can dress like scholars.

Peek-a Boo Frierson families! During the last week of October, we will post a series of videos highlighting "Montessori Peek-a-Boos." These videos are designed to highlight several look-fors in our classrooms. At the end of the week, parents and families will have the opportunity to sign up for classroom observations in the month of November. These Peek-a-boos will provide some guidance to parents as to what they should see in a Montessori classroom duing an observation.

We're kicking off Red Ribbon Week (October 26–30), a special week dedicated to encouraging our scholars to make healthy choices, stay drug-free, and build bright futures!

Red Ribbon Week is a nationwide celebration that promotes drug prevention awareness and reminds students of the importance of making safe, healthy, and responsible decisions.

Monday is “Follow Your Dreams, Stay Drug-Free!” So roll out of bed and come to school in your favorite PAJAMAS as we kick off a week of fun, learning, and positive choices!

What a wonderful week at Frierson! A huge shout out to our awesome PTA for not only providing a duty free lunch for our teachers, but for hosting another incredible Trunk or Treat event. We also celebrated Unity Day, sporting the color orange in support of kindness, inclusion and acceptance. On Saturday we honored our very own Edith L. Frierson. Thank you to all that took part in such a special day, sharing memories and paying homage. A very special thank you to the "Friends of Frierson" and school staff that spearheaded the planning and ex*****on of the day. Your dedication and careful orchestration of the event are a direct reflection of the contributions of Principal Frierson to the Wadmalaw community.
