Here's a second SHOUT OUT to show our appreciation for our School Lunch Heroes:
Our #WatertownWay Nutrition Services team has worked tirelessly to provide emergency meals to students since the pandemic closed schools in March of 2020. The extension of free meals for all students for the past two years, coupled with severe supply chain disruptions, has created many unique challenges requiring nutrition programs to be creative in the areas of staffing and meal production. A HUGE THANK YOU to our Nutrition Services staff for the effort and care that you pour into your work daily for our students!
May 6, 2022 is School Lunch Hero Day! Thank you to our amazing #WatertownWay Nutrition Services Team! We appreciate you!
It's always fun learning something new! These #WatertownWay Spanish course students played a card game called Mano Nerviosa - a popular card game in many Spanish-speaking places that helps students learn and practice numbers in Spanish.
