CONGRATULATIONS TO 8TH GRADER, MOLLY JAIN!

The 8th grade Language Arts classes are participating in the Student Voices essay contest of the Asbury Park Press this year.  On our first entry, Molly Jain has placed in the newspaper.  The edition will be out later next week.  Molly’s name and school will appear on the opposite side of the editorial pages.

Molly’s essay has received an Honorable Mention in the October issue of Student Voices in the Asbury Park Press.

This prestigious contest had over 400 entries in the 8th grade category.

Molly’s essay highlighted her vacation to Harry Potter World at Universal Studios and the impact this trip had on her!

Way to Go, Molly!
