The Senator Frank R. Lautenberg School community came together to help students start the new school year prepared and ready to learn!

Thanks to the generosity of valued community partner Costco, students and families received bookbags and essential school supplies during a special giveaway at SFLS. The initiative was spearheaded by Director of School Safety Dalton Price and Principal Dr. Sherri Brackett, with Assistant Superintendent Nahed Badawy and SFLS staff helping distribute supplies to members of the school community.

Together, we’re helping our students start the school year with confidence, preparation, and pride!
