The students in Mr. Perkalis' kindergarten class had a fun time playing "Spill the Beans," a game focusing on learning ways to make 10. The children dumped 10 pretend beans out of their cups and then recorded how many turned up red and how many turned up white. Great work!

5th Grade Ambassadors do so many wonderful things to support the Cucinella community! From holding doors at morning arrival to leading whole school meetings, they exemplify Cucinella's core values of respect, optimism, curiosity, and kindness. They are leaders that the younger students look up to. The ambassadors featured here record weekly morning announcements shown to the whole school on Fridays. Keep up your great work, ambassadors!
