• Invitation to the Bell

    Every Monday Morning, Ferguson Township Elementary School "invites the bell" so that we can feel calm and present and ready to learn.  The recordings found here are of the mindfulness practices that we've offered since starting to learn online.  Feel free to access them during the week so that you can feel calm, safe and maybe even a little more content at any time of day.
