🎶 What a whirlwind month for our SHS vocalists! 🎤
Our Ram Singers and SHS Choir have been busy representing our school across the county, and we couldn’t be prouder of their hard work and talent!
Here’s a look at what they’ve been up to:
⚾ Opening Day: The Ram Singers helped kick off the season by performing a beautiful National Anthem at the Salem Little League Opening Ceremony. Play ball!
🎼 Festival Vibes: Our choir students participated in the 50th Annual Salem County Honors Band and Choir Festival at Penns Grove High School.
It was an incredible experience as students from all five county schools came together to work with the talented Dr. Lorraine Lynch from Rowan and Rider Universities.
Way to go, Rams! 🐏❤️

🦎 Meet "Lecko the Gecko"! Ms. Weather’s Pre-K class has a tiny new classmate! As part of their Pet Study, students are getting some hands-on experience by welcoming Lecko to the room.
What better way to learn about responsibility and animal care than with a real-life class pet? So far, we’ve learned that Lecko is a big fan of:
🪨 Napping under his favorite rock
🦗 Snacking on crickets
The kids are having a blast observing their new scaly friend! Welcome to the family, Lecko! 💙✨

💙April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month, a time dedicated to building safe, nurturing environments where every child can thrive. This year’s theme, Pinwheels of Possibility, reminds us of the bright futures we create when we support our young people.
Earlier this month, our SMS community brought this message to life! Our 3rd and 8th graders teamed up to plant a vibrant garden of blue pinwheels in front of the school.
What do the pinwheels represent?
✨ A visual reminder of our commitment to child safety.
✨ The hope and "possibilities" we create when we invest in children
✨ Our shared mission to prevent abuse and promote well-being.
The pinwheel garden will be on display throughout the month of April. Next time you drive by, take a moment to enjoy the view and remember the vital role we all play in protecting our children.
