While each grade spends time in and out of class together, the Lower School puts a special focus on inter-grade friendships to strengthen the bond of the division and the overall School community. Kindergarten and third grade students are paired together as buddies for the entire school year, taking time to play, learn, and do service projects together. By the year’s end, the younger boys have an older student to model themselves after, and the third graders have learned an important lesson in support for someone who is younger than them. </p> </div> <footer> <div class="fsElementFooterContent"> <p><a data-page-name="ABOUT US" href="/fs/pages/2277" target="_blank">Learn More</a></p> </div> </footer> </section> <section class="fsElement fsContent" id="fsEl_27193" data-use-new="true" > <header> <h2 class="fsElementTitle">Honesty</h2> <div class="fsElementHeaderContent"> <figure class="fsImage"><picture><img alt="Fifth grade banner boys pass the honor to the rising fourth graders" data-image-sizes="[{%22url%22:%22https://resources.finalsite.net/images/f_auto,q_auto,t_image_size_1/v1659018386/haverfordschool/bkppz2tt2e0n1feacgao/BannerBoys.jpg%22,%22width%22:256},{%22url%22:%22https://resources.finalsite.net/images/f_auto,q_auto,t_image_size_2/v1659018386/haverfordschool/bkppz2tt2e0n1feacgao/BannerBoys.jpg%22,%22width%22:512},{%22url%22:%22https://resources.finalsite.net/images/f_auto,q_auto,t_image_size_3/v1659018386/haverfordschool/bkppz2tt2e0n1feacgao/BannerBoys.jpg%22,%22width%22:800},{%22url%22:%22https://resources.finalsite.net/images/f_auto,q_auto,t_image_size_4/v1659018386/haverfordschool/bkppz2tt2e0n1feacgao/BannerBoys.jpg%22,%22width%22:1200},{%22url%22:%22https://resources.finalsite.net/images/f_auto,q_auto/v1659018386/haverfordschool/bkppz2tt2e0n1feacgao/BannerBoys.jpg%22,%22width%22:1280}]" data-resource-description="" data-resource-filename="BannerBoys.jpg" data-resource-uuid="5c9df8a9-e095-43f7-98d4-6f341438b9d2" id="" src="" /></picture></figure> </div> </header> <div class="fsElementContent" > <h5>Lower School Banner Boys</h5> <p>The Lower School Banner Boys are fifth graders who serve as stewards of leadership for the entire division.
