Landon Collins By Jan

      Pick six! The crowd goes wild. We had an incredible guest this month. Landon Collins from the New York Giants came to our school! James Madison was so excited. Teachers were wearing Giant’s clothes and showing their support for him. We were so grateful that out of every school he came to ours! Everyone was so loud. Everyone wanted to get a signature from him because it could be the only time they would ever see him. James Madison was on their best behavior. Kids asked questions about him like, “What was his favorite sports moment?” He was a great host and a great guy.

     This could not have been possible without Stop & Shop, Box Tops for Education, and the New York Giants organization. Thanks to Box Tops and Stop & Shop each class in James Madison got 2 boxes of school supplies. We appreciate everyone who helped us and who gifted us these supplies. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Dr. Suess Day by Emma

Dr. Suess Day happens once a year to celebrate Dr. Suess’s birthday! All different readers came into every classroom to read his amazing books. Some guest readers that came to our school were, Dr. Cusumano, Mrs. Clarizio, Senator Pou, Mr. Malleo, Mr. Rigoglioso, Councilman Ron Herrerg, and Bergen County Executive James Tedesco. Also, Mrs. Biasucci’s daughter and niece dressed as Thing 1 and Thing 2 and took pictures with all of the visitors. Even Mrs. Mendoza dressed as Cat in the Hat. After students listened to the visitors read, art students from Garfield High School came to do themed crafts with the classes. All of these fun events were organized by Mrs. Biasucci, our Reading Specialist. Thanks to her, we had a great day!
