P.S. 95 kids bond at Halloween walk-a-thon
Spiderman, Cinderella, Ninjas and many more cartoon characters, superheroes and princesses were all in attendance at P.S. 95’s First Annual Halloween Walk-A-Thon. Almost all of the 980 students grades Pre-K through eighth grade were in full costume, including most of the 150 staff members, as they marched up Avenue U to the delight of passersby, workers and business owners of the community.
Principal Janet Ndzibah, who also was in full costume as a ladybug, was very proud of her school as the walk was clearly a success and a testament to how tight the community is and how much the school means to the community. “The parents loved it. It was great to see all the kids in full costume, and the teachers as well. We exceeded all of our expectations,” said an excited Ndzibah.
Along with the walk, there was also a small ceremony in the school yard to honor Marine veterans, and firefighters of local Firehouse Ladder 253. “We always want to thank those that serve our country,” said Ndzibah.
