At Mennies Elementary School, Mrs. Myerson's 1st graders and Mr. Bogut's 5th graders will be "buddying up" each month this year to create meaningful connections. For their first meeting, they engaged in a "Get to Know Your New Friend" activity, where they learned about each other's favorite things. It was heartwarming to see how the students quickly opened up and communicated well with each other. Everyone is looking forward to our next meeting with our new buddies!

Students, staff, and families from Little Lamb Preschool visited Duffield’s Farm! Everyone enjoyed the hayride, pumpkin picking, feeding the farm animals, going through the hay maze, exploring the learning barn, and playing in the various gross motor areas. Prior to the trip, teachers read farm books to the students. New vocabulary was introduced and small group learning (measuring) was based on real-world experiences. This trip was made possible by our preschool supervisors, district, and board. Everyone had a great time!
Dallago Preschool completed fire prevention week with a visit from the Vineland Fire Department. Students were able to see a firefighter get dressed in their protective gear, received high-fives from the firefighter in gear (which is great for our students so they know not to be afraid if someone enters their house in this uniform), and were able to go inside of the fire truck! The students and staff had a great experience!
