~*~ THANK YOU ~*~
TURKEY BOWL TOUCHDOWN

THANKS to all the administrators, teachers, parents, volunteers that made the event a huge success. A special thank you to Elissa Diez, Sherri Friedman and Norma Schwartz for coordinating. The sound of kids cheering, football whistles blowing and the high school band playing was proof of the great time the kids had.
SOCK IT TO HOMELESS SUCCESS

Thank you to those who donated to the Sock it to Homelessness Sock Drive. With your efforts, we were able to collect 998 pairs of socks that were donated to the Miami Rescue Mission. 
SNEAKER DRIVE SUCCESS ON THE RIGHT FOOT

Thank you to our students and families who donated sneakers to the Sneaker Impact Sneaker Recycling Competition conducted by our science department. The science department collected 4 large boxes of shoes which will be recycled and not be thrown into landfills.
