The butterfly is free at the Adamsville Primary School.
The 3rd Grade Small Group Instruction students in Dan Richter’s class have been monitoring the life cycle of a monarch butterfly this semester at Adamsville.
The monarch butterfly emerged and was ready to fly on Friday, October 23, so after students stopped by Mr. Richter's STEM Lab room throughout the school day, the send-off was set.
So at 3:15 on that Friday afternoon, Mr. Richter and the kindergarten students in class taught by Daryl Rothman and Maliha Merchant strolled outside the school building and set the monarch butterfly free.
The monarch butterfly’s next stop is expected to be in the mountains of Mexico.
