Spotlight on our Halloween Helpers!
We had a successful Pumpkin Decorating Contest and thank all of the students who voted, brought in change, and parents for bidding on pumpkins to support this festive fundraising event benefitting Helping Hands Day. Thank you to our philanthropy committee for facilitating everything- Lauren Pappas, Samra Cheema, Lara Wilson, Rachel Feltman-Frank, and Jen Hulsh. We raised $800 that will go towards our spring Helping Hands Day event that all students will participate in. The students will be voting on the charities the school will support on Monday. We look forward to facilitating a meaningful event for all! In case your students didn't hear on the announcements...The winner of the contest was #4 (pictured here)! Thank you to the 5th grade teachers for creating it!
We would like to thank Mrs. Pullano for her help, as well as Lauren Pappas, Brooke Goldberg, Melanie Rosenbloom, Rachel Fisher, Desiree Novak, Beth Cohen and Eva Grzesik for coming in during lunch this week to run the voting and count the coins! Another shout out to Lauren Pappas and Melanie Rosenbloom for their extra creative pumpkin help!
A HUGE THANK YOU to our over 80 volunteers for planning and hosting the Halloween parties that took place after the awesome Halloween Parade! Our students had an amazing Halloween afternoon because of all of you!
We hope you have a wonderful first weekend of November and don't forget to 'fall back'!
