  A Note from Raul Sandoval, Principal

In January students learned about the work of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.  In February we recognize Black History Month! Across content areas and grade levels students are learning about important individuals like Ruby Bridges and George Washington Carver and their contributions.  In the upper grades students are using resources like Britannica Online to research other important African-American figures that have contributed in so many ways!  

Essex County Gifted & Talented 

The Essex County Gifted & Talented Steering Committee hosted its annual Totally Global Competition today at Noecker School. Gifted students in grades 4-5 from Roseland, Belleville, Essex Fells, and Cedar Grove worked in mixed teams to solve various social studies related problems. There were problems about state capitals, NJ counties, US presidents, longitude & latitude, and much more! The teams with the highest scores received trophies for 1st, 2nd, & 3rd place. Four Noecker students were on the winning teams! Congratulations to Sasha Tolstonogova & Jonah Seide on the 1st place team, Cadence Wang on the 2nd place team, and Hunter McLaughlin on the 3rd place team! We are so proud of all of the students! Thank you to Ms. Clarke & the 6th grade G&T students for organizing and running the event.
