Halloween 2013

Birchtree's students had a great Halloween yesterday! Classrooms teamed up to decorate the school and bake treats for the event.  In the afternoon they donned costumes for a Practice Trick or Treat session throughout the school.  They also enjoyed watching a movie and having a dance in the gym.

Student Garden Project

Birchtree’s students planted, maintained, and harvested an herb and vegetable garden at the Portsmouth Public Library this summer. The project allowed students to develop their vocational and independent-living skills, engage in a conservation project, and learn to give back to their community.

Thank you to the Portsmouth Public Library for hosting the garden and to the Portsmouth Garden Club for their generous grant in support of the project!
