Thank you to everyone who attended our Grandparents/Special Persons Day event! It was wonderful to share our small piece of paradise with all of you! From breakfast to each class singing a song to classroom visits, everyone was smiling ear to ear! A huge thank you to the Ocean Gate New Jersey Education Association for putting on such a loved and amazing event!
Our April House Meeting focused on caring and communication skills as the students made cards for an organization that send cards to children who are in the hospital. Each house worked on the importance of verbal and nonverbal communication as well as working together to accomplish a goal. Students continue to display the 6 Pillars of Character daily!
