EJA's Girls Running Club participated in the Margaret Schmidt Memorial Run on May 2nd at EJA. The girls started training for this race in the fall. They not only learned how to run in a race and pace themselves, but they grew from a group of individual runners into a team. Our fourth grade team members designed our shirts. Mrs. Gokey and Mrs. Pacuk are proud of the girls' achievements. The girls were joined by former members of the running club.
The student and family reception for the district wide k-12 art show is happening this afternoon from 4 to 6 pm at the Athens Cultural Center. Everyone is welcome.

The NJHS Boston trip was a memorable experience filled with teamwork and fun despite the rainy weather. Students had the opportunity to tour the historic Fenway Park, where they learned about the rich history of the stadium and the Boston Red Sox organization. Later that evening, students attended a Red Sox game and celebrated an exciting Boston victory together.
The group also toured Harvard University, where students explored the campus and gained insight into college life. A highlight of the visit was seeing Edmund Chan, whose accomplishments served as an inspiration to everyone on the trip.
The trip was filled with laughter and valuable experiences that made the journey memorable for all involved.
A huge thank you to Jim Purdy, James Comerford, Kelly Ulion, Heather Multari, Pietro Multari, Michelle Pielli, Jennifer Bliss, Jessica Deyo, Jayme Harford, Christina Bourguignon, Tiffany Pieruzzi, Kristen Conway, Kym Apotas, Tammy Hendricks, Stephanie Leo, Nadia Multari, Kristen Viviano and Deidre Meier! We would not have been able to do this without all of you.

Applegreen stopped by CA today during lunch, giving students a chance to explore job opportunities close to home. With 27 locations along the Thruway and across the Midwest, Northeast, and Southeast, there are plenty of opportunities to grow.
Students had the chance to ask questions, learn about different roles, and start thinking about their next steps after graduation. It is just one of the many ways we help prepare our students for life, college, and careers.

Miss Anderson’s class at EJA dove into an ocean-themed lesson where students explored the dangers of plastic waste and oil pollution. Families were invited to come see presentations, and our students did a great job sharing their knowledge and raising awareness for our oceans. 🌊♻️

Our Pre-K students have been exploring what it means to be authors! Inspired by the book A Book for Bear, they decided to create books of their own.
They brainstormed all the materials they would need—markers, paper, scissors, crayons, tape, paint, and even something strong like wood for the cover!
Their creative stories and books included topics about people, a guy named Steve, rainbows, their names, Stitch, colors, and so much more. We are so proud of their imagination, teamwork, and excitement for writing!
