Neighborhood Scavenger Hunt

The great thing about being in NYC is using this wonderful city as a resource. Once a month, the Upper School has a "House" competition. This month upper school students and faculty enjoyed a scavenger hunt around the west village finding historical monuments, interesting neighborhood facts, and more. The House System has been a wonderful addition to our Upper School. The House System and Advisory are intended to give Upper School students a sense of community and to support the mission of the Academy of St. Joseph to educate the whole child.

History Detectives

Fourth grade participated in the program, 'History Detectives', where they explored artifacts throughout the Children's museum in the New-York Historical Society that shed light on important aspects of the history of New York. Next month, an educator from the New- York Historical Society will visit fourth grade at AOSJ to discuss the Lenape Indians influence on New York.
