Today, our 8th grade CTE students had an enriching visit to Rowan College of South Jersey (RCSJ)! 🎓 They attended a comprehensive career fair, gaining valuable insights into a variety of career paths, speaking directly with professionals, and learning about the necessary skills and education for future jobs. We also enjoyed a campus tour, exploring the course buildings and learning firsthand about the diverse educational programs RCSJ offers. Preparing our students for success!

This Veterans' Day, one of our classes found a powerful way to connect with the meaning of service and sacrifice.
In honor of Mrs. Harold’s son, a fallen hero who lost his life while serving our country, the students in Mr. Kavanagh's class wrote 'Thank You' letters to his Cavalry Company, which is currently deployed.
Students also learned about the deep symbolism of the poppy flower and created these beautiful posters to show their respect. It’s a heartfelt lesson in gratitude, history, and remembrance, all while supporting a cherished member of our own community, Mrs. Harold, and her son's brothers-and-sisters-in-arms.
We are so proud of these students for their empathy and thoughtfulness.
