Let it Grow!

We held our second Movember campaign to raise awareness of the biggest health issues facing men today: Mental Health & Suicide Prevention, Prostate Cancer, Testicular Cancer, Heart Disease and Diabetes

It was a collaborative effort to support our fathers, brothers, uncles, sons, and friends!

  • Male staff members were encouraged to grow a mustache or beard and hopefully start a conversation about men’s health. Thanks to over 20 men who joined our challenge!
  • Blood Pressure Screenings were offered to staff.
  • Everyone was encouraged to get moving each day to stay mentally healthy and to reduce the risk of heart disease, diabetes, and cancer.
  • Art teachers included mustaches in their lessons to start a conversation about the importance of healthy living.
  • Counselors ran mustache muse contests each week.
  • Blue ribbons were sold to benefit the Movember Foundation.

Thanks so much to everyone who supported Movember!

 

Milestone for PAWS Program at Windsor

Our partnership with PAWS IN HAND is still going strong after 12 years! Learning on both ends of the leash is a simple philosophy that has brought joy to many students and rescued dogs over the years. Whether students are very comfortable with dogs already or they are unsure about how to approach them, attending a PAWS session is a meaningful experience. We are so grateful to the dedicated volunteers for their commitment to this important mission.

100th Day of School!

We celebrated the 100th Day of School with fun activities, a special visit from Whiskers the Wildcat, and stickers for everyone. Some people even dressed the part for this special day! It’s hard to believe that Spring is right around the corner.

Week of Respect at Windsor

Windsor joined other NJ schools this week in an effort to raise awareness about bullying. We held a poster contest and were overwhelmed by the number of people who participated. During group lessons, students learned about the importance of respect. Everyone attended team-building workshops and had the chance to experience the benefits of working together. We enjoyed fun spirit days and had opportunities to make some new friends.

Intramural Sports at Windsor

Our students were thrilled to get back on the court and play basketball this week. Throughout the year, they will have the opportunity to try many sports. It’s also a nice time for them to socialize and make new friends.

DIY Nameplates

It can be fun to learn new skills, especially when your own name is involved.  These students were very excited to stamp their own nameplates and spruce up their lanyards.
