What a beautiful day for a mindfulness lesson outside! Today students learned about the power of choosing our thoughts in fun and interactive ways. Thank you to the PTO for this wonderful experience!




Taking advantage of the wonderful weather here today, Ms. Scrimo decided to take her music lesson outside. The delightful mix of the students and the wonderful weather created a symphony of joy in our ears.


This week LVMS students teamed up with the Washington Township Senior Center to present a Technology Workshop. Students worked with seniors answering questions and offering tips on how to get the most out of their cell phones, laptops and tablets. The day was a great success with both students and seniors learning a lot from each other!





OFRS Students participated in a Mindfulness program with Sue Murphy of 3toBeMe who helped us understand the importance of our mental wellbeing. She introduced breathing tools, monitoring our heartbeat and using positive language and thinking. We look forward to learning more strategies with her next visits!

Congratulations to Mrs. Bohrer and the LVMS Destination Imagination Teams! The teams competed at the NJ Destination Imagination State Tournament in the Engineering Challenge and finished FIRST!



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.
