Bacon Bears, 

We are BEARS (Be Excited About Reading in Schools) 

Last week was an exciting one at RM Bacon Elementary! We had our PBIS Bear Bucks Store, where students cashed in their well-earned Bear Bucks for fun rewards, reinforcing our commitment to positive behavior. The PBIS Assembly was a great success, celebrating students who have demonstrated respect, responsibility, and readiness. We wrapped up the week with Hoops for Bacon, a thrilling event that brought students and staff together for some friendly basketball competition. It was truly a week filled with positivity and school spirit!

Looking ahead, we have another exciting lineup of events:

  • Spring Pictures will take place on Monday. Be sure to bring your best smile!

  • Bubbles for Autism is scheduled for Tuesday at 2:15 PM. This special event helps raise awareness and support for individuals with autism, and we encourage everyone to participate.

  • Youth Alliance Assembly: This week, we are honored to welcome Preston Centuolo, the founder of The Youth Alliance (TYA), who will be speaking to students across the district. For more than a decade, TYA has partnered with schools to educate and empower students, faculty, and the community.

Preston Centuolo’s message focuses on accepting differences, fostering an anti-bullying culture, and helping students discover their dreams. His goal is to inspire young people to overcome adversity and remain true to themselves rather than giving in to peer pressure, violence, or negativity. Preston is passionate about connecting with youth, especially those facing challenges, and his message of hope, resilience, and leadership aligns perfectly with our school’s mission.

Bella is the all time soda tab winner! 

Last week was another exciting one at RM Bacon Elementary! We kicked things off by wearing green to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, filling our hallways with festive spirit. 

On Wednesday, we honored our hard-working students with a fantastic Honor Roll/Principal’s List Ice Cream Party—a well-deserved treat for their dedication to academics. 

We wrapped up the week with a teacher professional development day on Friday, where staff engaged in meaningful learning to continue providing the best education for our students.

Good News to Share! 

We are proud to share that RM Bacon Elementary is not in any NJDOE status for the third year in a row! This is a huge accomplishment, reflecting the hard work of our staff, students, and families. 

Bacon Teachers always learning - Together!
