Thanks to our community for 'voting' in our door decorating contest! We had lots of individual and groups winners - sparkly, interactive, inclusive, hilarious - but as promised, the People's Choice trophy (72 reactions when voting closed!) was awarded to our receptionist, Alice. We love that door too!

We finally got the very busy Ms. Valdes-Bradner into a board meeting to be recognized as the Maryland Foreign Language Association Teacher of the Year, which was announced in September. It coincided with many of her students also being there for earning the Global Seal of Biliteracy, so it was a double win for everyone! Read all about it: carolineschools.org/article/1377269

Every December, we receive a large donation of hats, gloves, and socks from our good partners at Educational Systems Federal Credit Union. What a gift for our families in need! Thank you to them and especially ESFCU VP for Business Development & Partnerships Dominic Powell for their generosity.

Sometimes the best photos from Board of Education meeting recognitions aren't the official ones! We love that there's usually a group of supportive family members, angling their phones and celebrating our accomplished and well-loved students.

Our #CarolineFamily is having a busy and fun December so far!
We were happy to have visitors from the MD State Dept. of Education who visited with Community School Coordinators and Principals at FES, GES, and CRMS.
