The Bullying Prevention Program
With the help of our resourceful counselor, Rossana Manso, EARJ has kicked off the Anti-Bullying Program. Encouraging behavior that creates an atmostphere in which students are free to be themselves without being bully verbally, physically, and socially/emotionally is our objective. The students learn about and practice techniques that will help them deal with bullying they may see or experience.
The students made posters representing the anti-bullying rules. During the last week of October the students gathered on the playground to present their posters and sing a song they had rehearsed earlier in the month. It was quite moving! Feel free to check out the beautiful posters they made that are being displayed around the playground area.

Fashion Show Grand Finale









The Fashion Show 
It was in November, and a colossal success. The students had a blast, and teachers were very involved on the process of rehearsing.
EARJ is on the process of constructing a creative, safe, challenging area, and funds are needed. The Fashion Show was a great way to involve school community for a great cause. We had a great turn around, and the result was that students were delighted, parents very proud of their children and school very pleased with such a fantastic participation of all.
Fifth grade students were in gala attire and they rocked the auditorium.
When we work together we succeed!!
Congratulations Fifth Grade!!
