"Big Bacon Bear shout-outs to Kathleen Pedrick and Candy Devich. Both ladies give their all for our students, and they exemplify hard work and dedication within their respective roles. These ladies are student-focused with everything they do, and they deeply care for our Bears. Thank you both for being wonderful members of our Bacon family."

A big shout out to Dena Andrews and Megan Bellucci for their hard work in making Beauty and the Beast a resounding success at Lakeside Middle School."

"Great examples of teaching are evident every day in our district. I had a chance to notice several this past week. First, Amy Gehringer and Darlene Bassetti had their students research and create projects for their unit on Ancient Egypt. These two put in countless hours in the classroom and of their own time to make this museum come to life for their students and guests. The projects were truly amazing and the students were able to share their vast knowledge on their topics of study. Next, I accidentally stumbled on some fraction lines on the floor at Holly Heights. When I asked about them I was told to go see the fourth grade hallway and the rest of Sarah Fryling's creations. I found full size models of fraction bars and a hopscotch board made of fractions. Ms. Fryling uses these to have kids create fractional equivalents as part of their game or simple walk the model to find equivalent fractions. Great use of kinesthetic learning."

"Bacon school would like to give a great big shout out to our PBIS aide Kim Berry. She goes above and beyond to make our Bears respectful learners. She has implemented attendance activities to encourage a full classroom, check in and check out to keep students on task with behavior, and exciting activities to celebrate the great things our Bears accomplish. At the end of the day a loud gong can be heard echoing through the hallways upstairs. This is a wonderful sound because we know a Bacon Bear has met his or her behavior goal. Aside from all of this we appreciate her ability to handle a disagreement or drama among students so that we can do our jobs in the classroom. Thank you Kim Berry for all that you do for Bacon School."

"Shout out to Ashley Bartholomew for providing students with real-time collaboration and immediate feedback on their writing stories. Throughout the lesson, Mrs. Bartholomew was not only working with the four students in the Writing Center but also with students across the room with comments and feedback on their stories using shared Google Docs. Students were collaborating and sharing their ideas with Mrs. Bartholomew throughout the entire lesson.'
"Thank you Tina Hulitt and Becky Benson for providing 21 students from the Millville High School the opportunity to go on the Junior Achievement Field Trip to Stockton University in Atlantic City. Students were collaborating and sharing throughout the day with students from Vineland High School, Gateway High School, Stockton students and volunteers from local businesses. The interactive day helped students develop the necessary skills to achieve career success. The day focused on the Four Cs - Critical Thinking, Communication, Collaboration and Creativity. Students were also given a tour of the new Stockton Academic Building and the oceanfront building for residential living that are small apartments rather than dorms. This was a great experience for our students!!"

"A big shout out to Tracy Parr and our maintenance staff who work so diligently to serve the students and staff at Silver Run. Each morning we return to work with the hallways clear and our rooms cleaned. Thank you!"

~ Eric Reissek, Principal
"A BIG shout out at CFC. The first is to Joann Abbamonte, Winnie Hammell, Kim Sergiacomi, Patty Owens, Lorraine Butcher, Moira Rhubart, Sam Kenney, and Jaime White for working on the PDP and holding a family Literacy and Routines Night for their classes. Families gathered in their pajamas and joined their teachers for an evening of reading, crafts, food and fun. What a great message to send to our families."
~ JoAnn Burns, Principal

"The staff at the Thunderbolt Academy continue to do an excellent job working with 85 of our students. They have an open mindset when it comes to receiving feedback and moving the program in alignment with district goals and initiatives. They work very closely with the CST to make sure all of our educational expectations are met for our students. If you have never checked out the Academy they have an open door policy. Special shout out to Mr. Payne, Mr. Ashton, Mr. Drew, and all of their teachers and staff. Thank you for all of your efforts in working with our students, supporting district goals, working with families, and networking in the community."
