These talented and hard-working young ladies will be leading the marching band on and off the field as they present their halftime show and bleacher music.

The marching band is also excited to announce that the theme for next fall's field show will be “Batman Legacy.” The show will take you on a musical adventure featuring music from the 1989 Batman movie, Batman Begins and The Dark Knight.

EHS Orchestra Students Perform with CJMEA High School Honors Orchestra at Rutgers University

Eight EHS orchestra students were nominated and accepted to perform with the CJMEA High School Honors Orchestra on Saturday, May 20th. Students had the opportunity to rehearse and perform with 120 other high school students from various Central Jersey high schools. The performance took place on the Nicholas Music Center stage, located at Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University. EHS orchestra director Colleen Trast is very proud of her students for participating in this unique musical opportunity, and for positively representing Ewing High School.

On April 27th, Ewing Special Olympics Boys’ HS Blue relay team was asked to take part in the Penn Relays. The Penn Relays is the oldest, and largest track and field competition in the United States, hosted by the University of Pennsylvania located at Franklin Field in Philadelphia, first held in 1895. The team consisted of Robert “Robbie” Morse, Trevon Nelson, Nile Barlow, and Tre' Clemons, who have been part of our Special Olympics program for many years. This team has spent countless practices working on their 4 X 100 relay run. It is safe to say that all of their hard work paid off. Out of nine teams representing programs across the country, Ewing ran a very close fourth place with a time of 57.94. With these outstanding times, SONJ Ewing HS Blue was invited back for next year's Penn Relays!

The boys continued building to their mantels by earning a Gold Medal at the SONJ Area 11 (Mercer County) meet at Lawrenceville on Sunday, May 8th.

All are encouraged to root for our Ewing athletes as they seek to repeat as Gold Medal winners at the Special Olympics of New Jersey’s Summer Games being held in Ewing at The College of New Jersey June 9th-11th!

Whooo…Visited Antheil First Graders?

Antheil's first graders have been busy studying animals! We integrated lessons in our nonfiction reading and life science units to learn about animal classifications, habitats, adaptations, communication, and how animals protect themselves from predators.

Last month, the first grade enjoyed a visit from the Mercer County Wildlife Center where they had the opportunity to meet and learn about an Eastern Screetch-Owl, a skunk, a box turtle, and a bat! The First Grade also collected donations of "Wish List" items for the animals. The Wildlife Center protects our native wildlife species through education, rehabilitation, and release back into their appropriate habitat.
