Today was a shining example of how the Tewksbury Education Foundation supports our educators and funds enhanced learning opportunities for our students. Through a mini-grant request made by Cathy Zisk, our OTS student body was able to zoom in and hear directly from Mr. Peter Fleischmann. His story of survival and loss during the Holocaust allowed history to come to life in the classroom for all who tuned in.

Some of today’s takeaways from Mr. Fleischmann:

"The reason we survived is that a man at that train station saw something happening that he felt wasn’t right, and he came to our assistance. He stood up."

"No survivor made it without someone helping them."

"You cannot go through life with a deaf ear and a blind eye."

The hallway looks different at TES as an indoor sensory path was installed over winter break! Congrats to the PLC (professional learning community) at TES consisting of Mr. Wooby, Mrs. Schaub, Mrs. Gentile, Ms. Picardo, Mrs. Page, and Mrs. Regan (not in the photo) who were awarded a TEF Mini Grant for the purchase of an indoor sensory path. Sensory paths are a research based activity for children to build motor skills, motor planning, sensory development, and burn off excess energy so that students are more focused during lessons.
