🌼 School Beautification in Full Bloom at School No. 7! 🌼

On Friday, October 24th, Mr. Vaccaro’s MD18-21 class joined forces with Ms. Zagorski’s fourth graders at Theodore Roosevelt School No. 7 for a heartwarming gardening project. Together, they planted vibrant mums and tucked daffodil and tulip bulbs into the soil, bringing instant fall color and setting the stage for a cheerful spring bloom.

The MD18-21 students took charge of prepping and planting the mums across the garden beds, while the fourth graders carefully placed each bulb with care and excitement. Their teamwork and dedication truly brightened the school grounds!

A big thank you to Officer Stewart for providing the tools and support that helped make this project a blooming success! 🌷🌞

đź§Ą Take One Leave One Coat Drive

We’re proud to share that our school is once again participating in the Take One Leave One initiative!

This is a simple and meaningful way to support our community during the colder months. A clothing rack will be placed outside the school during school hours, offering free winter coats to anyone who needs one. Additionally, a box will be added for hats and gloves.
If you have a gently used coat to donate, we’d love for you to add it to the rack!

How it works: 
Take One if you need a coat.
Leave One if you have a coat to give.

Attendance Matters!

Being at school every day is important for your child’s success. Regular attendance helps students build strong skills, stay connected with classmates, and make the most of their learning opportunities.

Please make sure your child arrives on time and attends school every day unless they are truly ill. Together, we can help every student reach their full potential!

During Respect Week, our students helped spread kindness and positivity by writing cheerful messages with sidewalk chalk around the school. These colorful notes might say things like “Be kind,” “You are awesome,” or “Respect everyone.” It’s a fun and creative way for children to celebrate respect, friendship, and caring for others while brightening up our school grounds for everyone to enjoy!
