Note from Raul Sandoval, Principal

Happy Earth Day! Our second-grade students celebrated with a wonderful Earth Day/Arbor Day presentation,
continuing a cherished tradition here at Lester C. Noecker School. The program was filled with music and
information that highlighted the importance of caring for our planet. We were proud to welcome second-grade
families, along with special guests including Board President Mrs. Scaraggi, Mayor Spango, Councilman Trillo,
Councilwoman Perrotti, and West Essex Board Member Deborah Sacco-Calderone. A special thank you to Mrs.
Petrarca, Mrs. Sessa, Mrs. Chartoff, Ms. Kovera, and Mr. Gavarny for their hard work in making this event so
meaningful for our students.
