Our Third Grade Classes have been rehearsing hard this week, and the results were beautiful music in their class performances. The students under the direction of Mrs. Postigo put in tremendous effort to create this beautiful music and should be commended for their hard work.

Our 4th and 5th grade engineers from Mrs. Van Houten’s and Mrs. Richardson & Mrs. Leonard’s classes completed various STEM activities for this year’s Pi Day. Fifth graders took on the role of mentor, guiding fourth graders in how to round decimals, determine diameter and circumference, and take on visual challenges. To celebrate Pi Day, they selected four lucky winners from a raffle to receive a special Pi Day t-shirt, after correctly rounding the decimal numbers to 3.14. Thank you, Mrs. Van Houten, Mrs. Richardson, and Mrs. Leonard for creating this wonderful and memorable activity.

Last week, Anthony Cucinella, son of Washington Township Schools’ first superintendent Benedict A. Cucinella, stopped by with former Old Farmers Road School principal Robert Brennan.
Anthony supplied current Cucinella principal Christopher Perruso with a copy of his father’s first contract in the district from 1954 when he started as a fifth grade science teacher. Anthony and Robert shared stories of Cucinella school’s namesake with Principal Perruso. The contract will be displayed in Cucinella’s vestibule.
