Dear Parents,

Please join me in welcoming two new staff members to East Amwell.  Ms. Brittany Bower (LDTC) and Mrs. Abby Kowalski (School Social Worker) joined us in January as members of our Child Study Team.  They both hit the ground running and we are excited about the impact they will have on our entire school.

Our schoolwide service project for the month of February is Socks for the Homeless.  Our goal is to collect 1,000 pairs of calf high socks that will be donated to local homeless shelters.  Individuals serving the homeless population report a growing need for socks and we hope you will support this worthwhile cause.

The week of February 10^th will be our 3^rd  Annual Kindness Challenge. This week is dedicated to creating a culture of kindness that we hope will make a lasting impact on our staff and students.  Last year this event was a huge success and we are certain, with the activities we have planned, it will be even better this year.  A letter will be sent in February explaining all of the great activities that will be taking place.

         Sincerely,           

            John Capuano
