Kindergartners working hard in the garden! This week they planted lettuce and radishes.
We were thrilled to welcome Ben Ogden, Olympic gold medalist and proud Flood Brook alum back for a special visit today! Ben shared stories from his journey, gave a great presentation, answered students’ questions, and took time to sign autographs. Thank you, Ben, for inspiring our students and community!

The 7th and 8th graders at Flood Brook are currently wrapping up our science and social studies Watershed and River unit. During the unit, we visited the school stream, the Flood Brook, the Williams Dam, the Weston Mill and Museum, the Townshend Dam, VINS, the Bellows Falls Fish Ladder and had a speaker from the Connecticut River Conservancy. We engaged in water testing, protocols for macroinvertebrates, talking to numerous guest speakers and tours and more. For the students’ final project they had to form an opinion from a shareholders perspective about the future of one of the dams we visited during the unit. They need to support their claim (recommended outcome for the dam) with evidence and reasoning from our trips and learning. Their projects include models, drawings, children's books, presentations and more. We would like to have an exhibition at the Londonderry Town Office (100 Old School Street) to display and share their hard work with the community on Wednesday, November 5th from 1:15-2:00pm.
The Bennington-Rutland Supervisory Union (BRSU) is excited to announce that registration for JISP is officially open for the upcoming winter season.
