NORTH CALDWELL, NJ — Students at West Essex Regional Middle School in North Caldwell are getting some hands-on lessons in kindness and compassion, according to school officials.
West Essex Middle School administrators recently shared a series of photos on social media that highlight several charity-minded student projects students have embarked on over the past month. Projects included:
- “Worked with Toni’s Kitchen on the Neighbors Feeding Neighbors project. Filled 75 backpacks with nutritious food for in-need children.”
- “Helped in-need communities through the collection of sporting goods.”
- “Made patrol care kits for our troops.”
- “Wrote letters to troops and first responders.”
Take a look at the fruit of their labor below. Don’t forget to visit the Patch Caldwells Facebook page here.
