4th grader, Filip, was recently recognized by NJ Transit for writing a persuasive letter in third grade arguing that trains are the best form of transportation. Impressed by Filip's thoughtful points, NJ Transit sent special gift bags to both the young author and his classmates as a token of appreciation. Filip's achievement highlights the power of writing and creativity in sparking real-world connections. Way to go, Filip!

The Tanglewood Marionettes presented The Dragon King, an award-winning production, to help Lyncrest kick off our Year of the Dragon celebration. An underwater fantasy based on Chinese folklore, The Dragon King told the tale of an intrepid Grandmother who journeyed to the bottom of the sea in search of the elusive Dragon King, and the answers to why he had forsaken the land above. The colorful sea creatures, exciting adventure, and Dragon King knocked the students' socks off! Thank you to the Lyncrest PTO for sponsoring this engaging assembly.
