Bacon Bears,

We are BEARS (Be Excited About Reading in School) 

We had another great week here at RM Bacon. This week we acknowledged our school counselors with a Spirt Week. Each day of the week we celebrated one of the attributes that the counselors bring to us. We are so appreciative of Ms. Sacco, Mrs. Parker, Mrs. Fleck and Mrs. Panas! We couldn't run the school without your assistance! 

We celebrated our 100th day of school on Friday! That is a major milestone for our school year as we are more thank 1/2 way through. 

And this goes without saying... GO EAGLES we hope you are able to win another Super Bowl!

Bacon Bears,

We are BEARS (Be Excited About Reading in Schools) 

We didn't think things could get much better when we were recognized as a NJ School of Character, but we have even more great news to share. This week, the NJDOE released the names of schools who have improved significantly on the NJSLA and Bacon was on the list. 

Therefore, starting next year Bacon will no longer be under the term "comprehensive school." This is such an amazing accomplishment that could not have been done without the support of the parents, community, students and most importantly the teachers! Congratulations!!!! 

In the next few months we will be looking to have a community event to celebrate these amazing accomplishments. In the meantime, we thank you for your support and dedication to being part of the Bacon Family! 

Welcome to the Family - Miss Rockelmann, Technology 

Miss. Rockelmann is our new Technology teacher at Bacon. She enjoys teaching design and coding skills to elementary students. She is excited to teach technology, problem solving, creativity, and critical evaluation skills to our Bacon bears!

Our Philadelphia Eagles are going to the Super Bowl! We hope you all had a chance to watch some football this weekend as Eagles will make the upcoming Super Bowl a memorable one. Similar to going to the Super Bowl, we found out this week that Bacon Elementary is a New Jersey School of Character! This is an amazing distinction but it doesn't stop there! We are now entered into the National School of Character consideration. The National School of Character will be announced in May of 2023. 

Character.org is a worldwide network of educators, researchers, and civic leaders that empowers people of all ages to practice and model the character strengths and core values that shape the hearts, minds and choices of every person. Founded in 1993 and formerly known as the Character Education Partnership, Character.org is widely known for our 11 Principles Framework for Schools: A Guide to Cultivating a Culture of Character. The organization’s vision is to be the global leader and voice for developing character in families, schools, and organizations.
