Fifth Grade Creates the Sound of LGE Pride
LGE fifth graders took on a unique and meaningful challenge in music class: writing a school song! Working in groups, students created original songs inspired by three important elements:
- A melody that everyone could easily sing and enjoy
- Our LEAP expectations
- The core ideas of the No Place For Hate pledge
Four songs were selected to become part of the LGE legacy, featured at assemblies, LEAP meetings, in classrooms, and displayed throughout our school for years to come!
LGE 5th Graders Promoted to Middle School
Congrats to our Lower Gwynedd 5th graders on their promotion to middle school! During the ceremony, each student shared something they are proud to have learned this year. Students and attendees also enjoyed a photo presentation celebrating the 5th graders' years at LGE, from their first days in kindergarten to now!
