Hope, our beloved therapy dog, celebrated her 100th day in a school yesterday! Way to go, Hope! Woof, woof!

Our wonderful 1st grade students made cards for Veterans this week. What a heartfelt way to show our thanks.

Table of Hope is holding a food drive on 11/21. Please see the attached flyer on how you can donate.

Today, we honor the incredible men and women who have served our country. Your courage, sacrifice, and commitment make the world a safer place. Happy Veterans Day! Thank you for your service.

Just a friendly reminder: School is open tomorrow November 11.

Kindergarten artists in Mrs. Maida's class became jewelry designers in art by creating textured clay pendants with radial designs and adding beads to make necklaces inspired by jewelry from around the world.

Reminder: School will be closed Thursday 11/06 & Friday 11/07. Have a great weekend, and we will see you on Monday!

Spooky season has come and gone, but we still have some Halloween photos and activities coming through!

Happy Halloween from Wharton Borough Public Schools!!

Twinning! Our second day of MacKinnon's Halloween spirit week fundraiser has us seeing double!

The MacKinnon 8th grade class is holding a spirit week fundraiser for both MacKinnon & Duffy students and staff. Our 8th graders are asking for a suggested $5 donation to participate to go towards their end of the year activities. Please see the attached flyer for the themes this week. Duffy students do not need to pay to dress up on Halloween. This is just a fun way to raise some money for our 8th graders.

Interested in what is going on at the local library next month?!

HUGE shoutout to our Middle School Cross Country team! 🏃‍♀️💨 Today, they competed in the GMCJSCA 2025 Championships Race at Central Park in Morris Plains, with approximately 70 runners in each race. The commitment, grit, and endurance on display were incredible. We are so proud of every runner who finished strong! 🧡🖤

Our first graders just wrapped up an amazing Pumpkin Science unit! 🎃🔬 They were little scientists, measuring, weighing, observing, and even predicting if their pumpkins would float or sink! So much hands-on learning and autumn fun. We're so proud of their curiosity! #PumpkinScience #FirstGrade #ScienceIsFun #HandsOnLearning

Our Student Food Committee had an awesome meeting today! We sat down with Sherry Toscano from Maschio's and Karina Argueta, one of our fantastic cafeteria workers, to talk all things lunch.

We discussed some exciting new menu items and gave feedback on which current meals we love and which ones we'd be happy to pass on.

There were some great ideas, and having the kids involved with some of the menu gives them a real voice in what they eat! Stay tuned—you might see some student-approved meals coming to the lunch line soon! 🥪🥗🍕

What a great turn out to our PTA sponsored Trunk or Treat. Kids had a great time, and families really got into the Halloween spirit decorating their cars! Thank you to our wonderful PTA for putting this all together!
