Good morning North Babylon School District Parents and Families,
We are thankful to the students, families, and staff of the North Babylon School District for the amazing start to the school year that we have had. This fall we have seen our students engaged in classroom lessons, attending to their academic studies, preparing for musical concerts and performances, writing, researching, problem solving, competing on the athletic fields, and leading community service work. We truly have so much to be thankful for here in the North Babylon School District community, and we are very thankful for the opportunities that our community provides for our students.
Hopefully this long Holiday weekend will be an opportunity for you to relax and recharge as you celebrate and give thanks with family and friends. Should you have the time, we invite you to visit our website and social media feeds to learn more about everything taking place throughout our schools. In addition to these communication outlets, we also have a district app (North Babylon Union Free School District). The app is located on the App Store and Google Play.
Please take a moment to review the important letter attached related to free breakfast and lunch for all students. We are pleased to share that due to the expanded access to the free meal program, that all North Babylon students are eligible for free breakfast and lunch starting on December 1, 2023.
Lastly, our County Champion Varsity Football team is playing in the Long Island Championship this Saturday at noon. Please join us at Stony Brook University if you are able to attend. Tickets may be purchased online at https://gofan.co/app/school/NYSPHSAAXI. Please join us in wearing NB/Bulldog gear to school this Wednesday in a show of school spirit and support for the team.
On behalf of the Board of Education and the North Babylon School District leadership team, we thank you for your efforts throughout this year, and we wish you and your families a very Happy Thanksgiving.
Warmly,
Ken

A BIG shout out to the NBFD volunteers for teaching our children about fire safety! A special thank you to one of Ms. Wilson's former students, Robert Howell. He knew at 6yrs. old that he was going to be a firefighter and help our community. πππ§―











Ms. Wilson gave each of her students a tiny furry critter. The students then had to construct a home for their critter. Everyone enjoyed building the animal shelters after reading the book: And So They Build. It was an amazing extension to our Reader's Workshop lesson.






Mrs. Cerullo & Ms. Wilson's classes joined together to build candy pumpkin catapults. The students visited a variety of stations to test for accuracy & distance. It was more challenging than the students anticipated but, so much fun!











3C has started working on its first research project. The students are working on a poster project about the USA πΊπΈ.





Ms. Wilson's 3rd graders had a wonderful time picking the perfect pumpkins π at the Belmont Pumpkin Patch. Thank you to our incredible PTA!!!!









Belmont's kindergarteners had an amazing time at the "Bucket Fillers" assembly.

Buddy classes, 3C and 5B experimented with chemical reactions with invisible ink painting. The students were impressed and amazed when their 'invisible' pictures came to life right before their eyes.









After reading the story, Bonaparte Falls Apart, students in Ms. Wilson's and Ms. Cerullo's classes made symmetrical skeletons. So much fun π

Belmont had an amazing "Healthy Run" students were able to get outside and run around the track. Thank you to Ms. Kirby, Mr. Vanterpool, and the parents who helped.











Today Ms. Wilson's and Mrs. Cerullo's classes listened to the story: Bonaparte Falls Apart. Then the buddies worked together to create symmetrical skeletons using skull stickers and QTips. 3C and 5B love working together on STEAM projects.











Class 3C had a blast running in the Belmont Healthy Run 2023! But, their favorite part was eating the delicious breakfast supplied by our awesome PTA!! β€οΈ
