Fashion show brings learning to life for Rhame Avenue students

Rhame Avenue School buzzed with excitement on Feb. 5 as kindergarten and first grade students participated in the Fundations Fashion Show.

The event celebrated students’ progress in the Fundations program, a phonics-based curriculum that strengthens literacy foundations.

Kindergarteners modeled individual letters of the alphabet they’ve learned, while first graders showcased blends and glued sounds they’ve mastered.

The first-floor hallway was transformed into a runway, complete with a red carpet. Students and teachers strutted to the upbeat tune of ‘ABC’ by The Jackson 5.

Fifth and sixth-grade students cheered on the younger students, adding to the fun and fostering a supportive atmosphere.

Principal Jack Bixhorn also joined the celebration, walking down the red carpet alongside the students.

Superintendent James DeTommaso and his cabinet attended to witness the joy and enthusiasm firsthand.
