Student board representatives updated the board on spirit week, sports records and upcoming events including prom planning and a powder-puff fundraiser; multiple teachers used the public-comment period to highlight author visits, cultural events and student projects.
Student representatives from Moorestown High School opened the meeting with brief reports:
- Freshman liaison Lilia Raston described fall-sports results and spirit-week activities, noting boys soccer reached the state tournament and various team records across levels. - Sophomore liaison Ella Calamida summarized Spirit Week charitable work, including a Thanksgiving food-drive organized by grade and a Battle of the Bills fundraiser that raised about $500. - Junior liaison Lily Trakis spoke about homecoming, pep rally highlights and early prom planning (prom venue: the aquarium). - Senior liaison Sofia Baram reviewed the Veterans Day assembly and announced a January 16 Martin Luther King Jr. assembly and a powder-puff football fundraiser.
During the second public-comment period teachers and staff recognized recent school events and programs: Courtney De La Cruz (Upper Elementary School) described a visiting author and Thanksgiving food-drive; Emma Della Femina (WAMS) reported a Day of the Dead celebration and a dodgeball fundraiser that benefits charity; Claire D'Ascenzo (Baker) summarized K–2 classroom projects; Chris Donahn (MHS) announced a new Quaker closet and vocational-program activities; other staff noted classroom lessons and community engagement.
Quotes and highlights were offered by the student liaisons and teachers and were not contested during the meeting. The board thanked student speakers and recognized the value of student engagement in public meetings.
