🌟 We're so proud of our incredible youth delegates who attended the CADCA Forum in Washington D.C. from February 2-6! 🌟 Attached is a photo of the enthusiastic group who represented us last week. They had an amazing opportunity to engage with key staffers of Senators Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, discussing important issues around substance use and addiction prevention. Our delegates also attended various workshops and presentations, gaining valuable insights into addiction science and the best prevention practices. It was an empowering and educational experience that they are eager to bring back to our community.

1st Graders at Park Terrace enjoyed a visit from GHS science teacher, Mrs. Hazzard, as she helped introduce a light and sound unit.

During library classes at Park Terrace, scholars learned a little about storytelling and the Lunar New Year from Mrs. Kathleen Bushek. We learned about dragon and lion dances and the "lucky" color red. Mrs. Bushek very kindly created a large lion for scholars to try out. Our very own Mrs. Prew gave everyone a fortune cookie to eat at home. Thank you to our Park Terrace librarian, Danielle Bombard, for inviting in this special guest.
