A Special Thank You to All Veterans
Students in art class were given an opportunity to say thank you to veterans this week. They made beautiful cards with heartfelt messages. We are currently selling paper flags in honor and in memory of veterans who hold a special place in our hearts. The money we collect will be used to buy gift cards and special treats for veterans who reside at the Lyons VA Hospital in Berkley Heights, NJ. We hope it will make them smile this holiday season to be reminded of how thankful we are for their service and bravery.
Every Can Counts
Thank you to everyone who donated to our Thanksgiving food drive! We delivered several large boxes of non-perishable food to the Center for Food Action today. Your generosity will enable many people to have a much nicer holiday this year. We are very proud of our student council for making beautiful posters, reminding each homeroom about it, checking for expiration dates, and packing up the food. It was a job well done!
Rotary Club Delivers an Important Message
We are so thankful to the Pompton Lakes Rotary Club for making their annual delivery of dictionaries to our third graders. Our students were very excited to hear about how much fascinating information they can find in this special gift. They learned about the many wonderful things that the rotary club does to help people around the world. We hope that they will be inspired to put service above self in their own lives.
The Magic of Starlight Farm
The experience of learning how to ride, feed, and groom horses at Starlight Farm is something that our students will never forget. They discover how to trust the horses and gain confidence in themselves with every trip to the farm.
The Nurtured Heart Approach® – A Parent Seminar
Our first parent seminar of the school year was presented by Frank Picone, a certified, advanced trainer in the Nurtured Heart Approach® which was created by Howard Glasser, MA. He discussed the importance of creating healthy relationships and recognizing that everyone has inherent greatness. “When we recognize a child’s strengths and focus on positive, everyday occurrences, rather than energizing negativity, we are creating an environment in which children can thrive”. It was a very informative evening and we received positive feedback from those who attended.
Tools for Success
The skills and strategies that our students learn in speech, counseling, and occupational therapy impact their lives in so many ways. It takes time, patience, and perseverance, but it’s well worth the effort.
A Spooktacular Day
Everyone joined in the fun this Halloween. We had a walking lemonade stand, living storybook characters, superheroes of all sizes, a famous artist and many more. It was a great day for a parade and classroom celebrations. Happy Halloween!
Windsor Wears Pink
Windsor staff and students wore pink and held a dress down day in support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month this October. This annual, international health campaign helps to educate people about the importance of early screening and raises funds for research into the cause, prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and cure of breast cancer. Thank you so much to everyone who participated!
An Enchanted Evening of Family Fun
We came together for an enjoyable evening of glow in the dark activities, archery, magic, slime making and more. It was nice to see so many of our families having fun with one another.
