NRESC & The Phoenix

The New Jersey Department of Education (NJDOE) partnered with the New Hampshire Department of Education to spread holiday cheer through the Holiday Cards for our Military Challenge. The goal of the Holiday Cards for our Military Challenge was the collection and delivery of personalized, signed expressions of respect, caring, and gratitude to United States troops, veterans, and service families. Personalized and signed cards reflect genuine support and caring, respect, and appreciation of our military heroes during the winter holiday season. Our students and staff created these personalized cards to send out this November.

Students in our elementary group continue to learn their letters each week using thematic language arts activities. Here is a snapshot of letters D, E, and F!

This month, students explored their fall environment through themed science lessons with Ms. Debbie, Ms. Heather, and Ms. Liz. Activities included pumpkin discretions, candy corn chemical reactions, testing sound waves, and Jack-o-Lantern explosions.

We are grateful for our continued partnership with Wayne Valley High School who provides peer opportunities for students at the Phoenix. This month, students created beautiful fall decorations for the students' rooms. We look forward to our next collaboration shortly.
