On Patriot Day, we remember the brave people who lost their lives on September 11th. To show love for our country, Dalers wore the colors of the American flag - red, white, and blue! It's amazing to see our young students joining in to honor those who passed away. By wearing these colors, the Farmingdale students showed that they believe in freedom and democracy. Let's all come together to remember and show our patriotism!

It is always an exciting time when a new school year begins, and for the Farmingdale School District, the 2023-2024 academic year is no exception. On September 6, students were welcomed back by Superintendent Paul Defendini, administrators, and staff, all of whom were eager to see the smiling faces of the new and returning Dalers. As the students hopped off the school buses and walked toward their classrooms, the sense of anticipation and excitement was palpable.

It is heartwarming to see corporate volunteers like KPMG positively impacting their local communities. Farmingdale elementary students attending the summer literacy programs hosted at Saltzman East Memorial and Woodward Parkway Elementary Schools were visited by KPMG volunteers on August 1, 2023, to celebrate Community Impact Day. The efforts put forth by KPMG volunteers to bring joy and learning to these young Dalers are commendable.

The "healthy kits" distribution included books, school supplies, a jump rope, and bags was a brilliant move to promote healthy habits and a love of learning among young students. It is inspiring to see how a small gesture like this can make such a significant impact on the lives of young children.

Moreover, the children's participation in yoga and making Kindness Stones was a great way to entertain and educate them. This event was a perfect example of how learning can be made fun and interactive.

The administrators' dedication to providing students with opportunities to succeed both academically and personally is admirable. By sustaining reading abilities during summer breaks, academic performance can be significantly boosted, giving students a better chance at success.

Overall, the event was a great success, and it is heartening to know that the administrators plan to continue hosting it annually. Kudos to KPMG volunteers and the program administrators for their efforts in bringing joy and learning to young students.
