🎃✨ A Spooktacular Day of Service! ✨👻
We couldn't be prouder of our amazing Kids Helping Kids students, led by the incredible Mrs. Lisa Black! 🎉 Today, they brought their spirit of service (and some spooky fun!) to Frank J. Smith School to assist with the elementary students' annual Halloween Parade! 🧡🖤
From helping the little ones line up to cheering on every adorable costume, our high schoolers were fantastic mentors. It was wonderful to see the older students guiding and engaging with the younger kids, making the parade a smooth and memorable experience for everyone.
This is what Kids Helping Kids is all about: building connections, fostering community, and being positive role models. A huge thank you to everyone at Frank J. Smith School for letting us be a part of your tradition!

🍎 Hanover Park High School Alumni Spotlight: Jenna Forbes
We are delighted to feature alumna Jenna Forbes, Class of 2003, in our latest spotlight! Jenna's journey exemplifies the lasting impact of the HP community on a professional career.
Education & Career:
Hanover Park High School: Class of 2003
Undergrad: Math Education, University of Delaware (2007)
Master's: Math Education, Rutgers University (2012)
Jenna has built a distinguished career as a math teacher, serving the students of Whippany Park High School for 18 years.
Reflections on HP: Jenna’s fondest memories at HP center around her deep involvement in school life, including sports, choir, clubs, and serving as SGA President—a role she enjoyed, especially planning fundraisers and managing the snack shack at football games. This sense of community was defining. "The 'We are Family' mentality here made this a great place to work," she noted, highlighting how her student experience influenced her search for a similar supportive environment as an educator.
Full Circle Moment: Jenna now experiences the incredible honor of being colleagues with some of her most influential high school teachers. She specifically credits her former math teacher, Kim Lurz, as a key inspiration for pursuing math education.
Advice for Aspiring Teachers: Jenna strongly advises those entering the field to "find a school and department that is both collaborative and supportive - it makes all the difference!"
Congratulations, Jenna, on your remarkable career and thank you for sharing your story!
