Folsom Elementary located in Prosper, TX, celebrated the beginning of their school year this week.  With local growth came a large influx of new students.  The “Be a Folsom Friend” program ensured that new students in grades 1-4 were greeted by their “Folsom Friend” who is showing them the ropes and helping them get to know the rest of the class.  The first day of school was a smooth success thanks to hardworking and well-prepared staff.  Teachers and faculty helped parents learn the traffic routes and made sure every student was greeted with a smile and found their way to their respective classes.  Kindergarten Parents were treated to the annual “Boo-Hoo/Woo-Hoo Breakfast” in the library organized by the Parent Teacher Organization.  The first day of classes also marked Principle Brenda Keener’s Birthday.  Kids and teacher lined the halls for a surprise singing of happy birthday.
