🍅 Jersey Fresh Harvest of the Month: September! 🍅
This month, we’re featuring tomatoes and giving our students and staff the chance to try Gazpacho tomorrow, Tuesday, September 29th!
After tasting in the cafeteria, grab a token and share your opinion: I Like It, I Love It, or Not for Me! 💚
Remember: Don’t “yuck my yum!” 😋

Students wrote and drew pictures about ways they can show kindness and ways they can tackle hard things, even when it means “working 9 to 5”! They also designed and decorated their own guitars with motivational symbols, encouraging words, and phrases inspired by Dolly’s love of music.
The students learned about Dolly’s kind and giving heart and how she used her success to help others. They discussed how sometimes we have to “put up with the rain if you want the rainbow” and that even during the hardest times, “every little thing is gonna be alright.”
It was a fun-filled day of learning, creativity, music, and reminders to work hard, be kind, stay positive, and keep believing in ourselves! 🎶❤️🌈

To wrap up our staff spotlight, we’re highlighting the teams who help keep our students moving and make sure they’re taken care of throughout the school day.
From our bus drivers and transportation staff to our cafeteria team, thank you for all you do for our students and school community! 💚🦅
