How first graders celebrate birthdays: 

In keeping with Quaker values, birthday celebrations at school are expected to be simple in nature, though we make sure that the birthday child feels extra special that day. Shared treats such as cupcakes, donuts, cookies, or fruit - one for each classmate - are appropriate choices. Caregivers may not provide lunch, favors, gifts, or decorations for the class. Caregivers who wish to give a class gift, such as a book, to a classroom in honor of a student's birthday are

welcome to do so.


Caregivers of students with food allergies are welcome to provide a safe alternative to be kept in the classroom for such occasions.


We have 23 first graders this school year!

Hello!
My name is Jamie Cho, but at FFS, students call me Teacher Jamie! I’ve been teaching elementary school since 2010 and joined the FFS family in 2015. I have a master’s degree in elementary education from the University of Southern California and a music degree from the University of Irvine, California.

Besides being a teacher & friend, I am also a daughter, sister, wife, and mommy to twin daughters, Olivia & Avery. I was born in Seoul, South Korea, raised in San Diego, California, and currently living in South Jersey. My hobbies include playing the violin, ice skating, and attempting to crochet!
