Ms. MacIntyre's class had the privilege of having Ms. Betsy Bachman from the Audubon Society of Ventura county come and speak about the Snowy Plover. it is a small. rare, threatened shore bird that lives on our local beaches. She spoke about it's habitat, how the father bird does all the work of taking care of the babies, and how to protect the bird from predators and humans.  She also informed  the students about how the Audubon Society is a non-profit organization that helps with  the conservation of birds, other wildlife and healthy ecosystems. One of the events they are involved in is the Christmas Count where they count how many birds there are in any area.

Holocaust Survivor Clara Knoeffler Speaks at Fremont Middle School

Clara Knoeffler, a Holocaust survivor, was invited to speak on Thursday, Feb 25th by Ms. Nolan and her  8th grade Language Arts classes . Over 100 students attended the event.  This was  is a wonderful chance for our students to meet a  Holocaust survivor as Ms. Nolan noted,  "they are diminishing each year as the survivors continue to age and die."  The opportunity for our students to get a first person account of actual events brings history that much more alive and real for them.
