CLARK — Students in Christine Cemelli’s fourth grade class at Valley Road School in Clark celebrate their peer’s birthday during snack time. Michelle Kukan and her mother passed out homemade brownie pops to the class in honor of Michelle’s birthday. The students were able to express their appreciation by creating birthday cards with poems inside. Cemelli states, “The students love to celebrate their birthdays, and when their parents are able to come in as well it’s a double bonus. The class loves writing each other cards, and has become a closer unit by doing so.” Michelle Kukan and her mother, Christa, are pictured above. (Photo courtesy of Clark Public Schools)
