Next week, students will travel to compete in the County-Wide battle at Cavallinni Middle School. In the 6th grade, our winners were "The Smarties": Emma Latorre, Emily Al-Ola, Elena Oppenberg, Kudrat Kaur, Henry Ardito. And in the 8th grade, our winners were "Team Two": Lin Miao, Lila Yakata, Summer Goodfellow, Ellie Thumm, Dylan Lagomarsino.

Special thanks to our vocal teachers: Mr. Bogert (Dater), Mr. Ricigliano (Smith), and Mr. Wolf (RHS). The arts are alive and well in Ramland!

WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS! Congratulations to the middle school boys' basketball team. In the first year back after a decade with no middle school team, the Rams, led by Coach Taylor, captured the league title with a hard-fought 51-49 victory over a good Westwood team. Education-based athletics are an important part of the Ramsey experience. Another great day to be a Ram!

Smith School's 7th and 8th grade French students celebrated the holiday, la Chandeleur earlier this month. Chandeleur is National Crêpe Day and coincides with Groundhog's Day. On la Chandeleur, the French eat crêpes which symbolize the sun representing the move from winter to spring. The students got to make, cook, flip and fill their delicious crêpes with fillings ranging from fruit and whipped cream to chocolate and lemon/sugar. This was a great cultural experience for the students and one that most want to share at home with their own families. Proverb: À la Chandeleur, l'hiver cesse ou reprend vigueur. (On Candlemas, Winter ends or gets worse.)
