NJHS Members CAN cook!

On January 14th and 28th, the Kershaw members of the National Junior Honor Society spent the evening at the Ronald McDonald House in Camden, NJ. Both groups did a great job cooking a delicious dinner for the families staying at the house. They met families from Virginia to Tennessee, Chicago to Ireland! All families staying at the Ronald McDonald House need to be close to hospitals where their children are receiving care.

The Chefs: Mrs. Carson, Jade Carson, Kirsten Hoffman, Natalie Price, Tiahna Duong, Mrs. Spadea, Justin Spadea, Mrs. Chambers, Jessica Chambers, Mrs. Czerski, Claire Czerski, Sam Czerski, Zach Holmes, Carlie McErlane, and Mrs. Finegan

These are the top 10 scores in the 5-6^th grade! I am going to be updating this blog every Thursday evening. I am really excited to see who will be in the top 10 scores in the league by the end of the season. The only thing is I am not including scores for the playoffs. I hope this gives everyone a chance to go on to this blog every Thursday evening. Its a really good way to see if you are in the top 10 scores of that week. The only bad thing is you might be in the top 10 one week but the next you might not be on it. :(

Thank you for looking at this!

Congratulations students!!

Look who visited our school!

In November, Mr. Gies and Mr. Synder gave Civil War presentations to the 8th graders. Both presenters had tons of interesting facts about the Civil War as well as lots of original artifacts and replica items on display. It was a great way for us to better understand the Civil War and see how different life was in the 1800's.

In December, Coast Guard officers presented to several of the Kershaw classes. They explained different careers in the Coast Guard and how math, science and the technology are crucial to Coast Guard careers. The officers even went into detail about the physics of flight.
