Too Good For Drugs
Our 6th session of T.G.F.D. focused on facts about tobacco. The students did not receive a homework assignment; however, they were encouraged to share and discuss the information with parents.
Many Thanks...
Thank you to Mrs. Raso, Mrs. Morton, Mrs. O'Connor, Mrs. Repole, Mrs. Mate, and Mrs. Scheiblein for planning and/or attending our Valentine's Day Party. We all enjoyed the food and fun! Also, thanks to Mrs. Markovski and Mrs. O'Connor for helping with the Argonne field trip. The class learned so much from the experience!
