Dear GJM Community,

Thank you to all of you who helped make our McTeacher night a huge success! Many students and families joined in the fun and the teachers had a great time serving their students dinner! We are looking forward to using our fundraised money for our media center and other celebration events for the students.

Mrs. Guinan and Mr. Nazarok held the first two Lunch with the Principal events! Students were selected from each homeroom for demonstrating respect and trustworthiness. Congratulations to all of those who earned the reward.  Next month’s character trait is RESPONSIBILITY!

Miss Donna from the Ocean County Library held an assembly for each grade level. She shared all the fun and exciting events that are happening at the library. All students are encouraged to get a library card so they can check out books.

Thank you to all of the families who volunteered and purchased books at our Scholastic Book Fair! The students enjoyed visiting the Fair and reading many new books. 

Please continue to tune in to the George J. Mitchell School Facebook page every Tuesday evening to see teachers read bedtime stories! Mrs. Morgan and Mrs. Eastburn did an excellent job and I can’t wait to see who will be next. 

Have a wonderful December!

Mrs. Deniese Guinan
