This week, our very own Elf has been appearing in various places during morning carpool.

This morning, our Elf was teaching future elves on how to spread joy!

Do you know any other middle school where the principal provides such a fun start to the day? You rock, Mrs. Feldman.

6th Grade Honor Roll Celebration was a tremendous success! The students had a great time playing Bingo. They were hanging on every letter and number!

Thanks to our PTA for organizing this event, and for all the volunteers who helped today. I bet afterwards you needed to find a quiet space.
