Students at Jenny Lynn Elementary in Kingston, PA created The Ralph Capristo Memorial Project to promote good citizenship through military awareness by celebrating and supporting our veterans and current servicemen and women. Ralph Capristo was a World War II veteran and a beloved member of our local community.
Each grade studies a different country and students choose a concentration area or specific region to conduct an in-depth study and create a cumulative learning project. The projects are presented twice a year to family and community members.
Prior to the start of the school year, our families take their children to the library to sign up for a community library card. The children walk to the library every week to borrow books from their vast collection. In addition, the library provides weekly hands-on lessons to enhance student learning.
