PARSIPPANY — Brooklawn Middle School families and their Parent Teacher Student Association (PTSA) joined efforts on Thursday to honor the entire Brooklawn staff for their professional efforts during the scheduling snafu during the month of September.
At last week’s Back to School Night on October 20, the PTSA collected cash donations that nearly topped $400 to provide a special luncheon over three lunch periods for the entire staff at Brooklawn on Thursday, October 29.
“The parents’ support was overwhelming!” said Anya Sheiffele, PTSA President at Brooklawn Middle School. “We couldn’t be more proud of the BMS staff and this certainly shows how much parental support there is for our special group here at Brooklawn!”
The delicious luncheon was catered by John DiMaggio, owner of Denville Pizzeria, who provided three sets of lunch buffets. Desserts were donated by Brooklawn families and other extras were covered by the Brooklawn Middle School PTSA.
“It was wonderful to see the staff so touched by our efforts. The thanks truly go to them. Our kids are in great hands!”
The menu consisted of Penne Vodka, Eggplant Parmesan, Salad, Italian and Turkey subs, Crudités, Chips and for dessert: Chocolate Chip Cookies and Brownies
