WFC would like to extend heartfelt appreciation to our school
administrators for all of their hard work over the last few months, especially
the last few weeks! We understand how much pressure has come along with
the reopening of schools this year and all of the uncertainties. We know how
difficult it is to please everyone while also keeping the students' safety as the #1
priority. Our school administrators are doing a great job!
In response to the continuously evolving current events, WFC has
created new program options to assist our community and our
district personnel!
These offerings include:
• Our same, high-quality Before School, After School, & Pre-K/K Wrap
Enrichment programs
• NEW! Remote Learning Support Centers – When student cohorts are
on virtual days, WFC supervises and assists students in their virtual learning
sessions.
• NEW! Programs for District Staff's Students – This program allows
staff and teachers to work, while their children are supervised and supported
during their base school's remote learning sessions. This program has provided
relief and peace of mind for our district administrators and their staff, whose
home districts have gone 100% virtual leaving teachers in a child-care bind.

Girl Scout Service Unit 81 of Clinton Township and Lebanon Borough is
looking to add to its roster of service activities to benefit the community.
The opportunities must be age-appropriate for girls between kindergarten and 12th
grade, and meet all current social distancing protocols. Some things we've done
recently include Grow-A-Row harvesting, craft and card making, and collections
for food pantries. Please reach out via the email address below if you
know of a group that we might be able to help.
We will be holding a virtual open house for local parents of kindergarten and
first graders interested in joining Girl Scouts. The meeting will be on November
12 at 8:00 pm. To obtain the Zoom link and password, please email:
gshnjserviceunit81@gmail.com. We are always looking for new members and
parent volunteers!. Information about our service unit is also available
at our website: www.GSHNJ81.com.
