Florence Township School District is making headlines!
We’re excited to share that NJ.com recently visited Florence Township School District to see firsthand how cursive handwriting is making its return to the classroom — and how OUR students are embracing it.

The article features our students and staff as they bring this important skill back to life in an increasingly digital world. From carefully forming letters to proudly showing off their handwriting, our students are proving this still has an important place in today’s classroom.

We are proud to see the great things happening in our classrooms and our amazing teachers and students who welcomed NJ.com and helped tell this story!

🌟 Responsive Classroom in Action! 🌟

Ms. Park’s students worked together to create their classroom expectations, focusing on being Kind, Respectful, Responsible, and Safe! 💙

By sharing their ideas and defining what these values look and sound like, students are taking ownership of their classroom community and helping create a positive environment where everyone can learn, grow, and feel supported.

Way to go, Ms. Park’s class, for putting the Core 4 into action! 👏💛 #RiverfrontPride #ResponsiveClassroom #Core4
