A Week of Thanks

Ranney students in all divisions gave thanks this week as part of several school Thanksgiving traditions. View the full story, photos and video clips.
Ranney students in all divisions gave thanks this week as part of several school Thanksgiving traditions. In addition to Middle and Upper School Thanksgiving assemblies, a food drive to benefit local families in need and special classroom activities, the Lower School held its annual Grandparents' & Friends' Day. Students in Beginners (age 3) through fifth grade performed songs and poems, as well as a fun interactive “Are You Smarter than a Fifth Grader Quiz,” for their families, friends and teachers as part of the day’s events.  

Each grade’s performance also included a demonstration of what they have learned so far this year in their World Language classes of Spanish, French and Mandarin Chinese; fifth graders even demonstrated how they write Chinese characters. Families also had a chance to visit their children's and grandchildren's classrooms and to view their artwork in the Panther Hall Gallery.
