Archway Programs

On Tuesday, March 17th, Creative Achievement Academy students and staff got together in their green apparel to enjoy snacks and drinks! We had green cupcakes and cookies, along with fresh lemonade. The celebration took place during behavior mod, so all students and staff could join in on the fun. 🧋🍪🍀

Yesterday, in celebration of Saint Patrick's Day, the Lower School students and staff made their own rainbow in hopes of reaching the pot of gold at the end. After making the colorful rainbow, they summoned a feisty leprechaun. While he didn't have gold, he did have a pot of Skittles! So, Mr. John, Lower School Principal and resident leprechaun, handed them out, and everyone was able to "taste the rainbow!" He also went out during dismissal and shared some of the tasty treats with the bus drivers! 🍀🍀🌈

Today, the Upper School students earning Blue Card and above status celebrated Saint Patrick’s Day with a reminder that good behavior has its rewards! They enjoyed delicious McDonald’s Shamrock Shakes as a tasty way to celebrate maintaining good behavior. 🍀🧋

Last week, our Advanced Abilities Day Program friends visited the All Sports Museum of South Jersey in Bridgeton. The group enjoyed touring the museum and hearing the stories behind an impressive collection of sports memorabilia, including signed baseballs, footballs, uniforms, and even a life-size cutout of Shaquille O'Neal! 🏀⚾

🍀 Happy Saint Patrick’s Day! 🍀

May luck be your friend in whatever you do,
And may trouble be always a stranger to you.

Lower School students and staff celebrated Pi Day a bit early this year with the Annual Pie Eating Contest, where everyone gathered to see if Mr. Henry could retain his title as champion. 🥧 🥧

The contestants were Mr. Henry, reigning champion. Mr. Tyreek, Miss Debbie, Miss Lori, and Mr. Zac. Miss Sam timed the event, which lasted three minutes and fourteen seconds, and then the contestants, hands behind their backs, dove into their pies face-first! The students and staff watching the competition raised signs and cheered for their favorite contestant!

It was no contest; Mr. Henry, the reigning champion, emerged with a pie-covered face and a victorious grin!

Students and staff from Cooper’s Poynt went outside today for a hands-on science lesson. Everyone brought compasses with them to learn how they work for navigation. The lesson was fun and interactive, and the students enjoyed learning how to read and use a compass. 🧭 ⬇🗺
