    Down Syndrome Awareness Day

    "Every year, on March 21, people all around the world come together to celebrate World Down Syndrome Day by wearing brightly colored, mismatched socks. March 21st is symbolic because people with Down syndrome have 3 copies of their 21st chromosome (3/21). Socks were chosen because the karyotype of DS chromosomes actually looks like mismatched socks!" East Dover will celebrate this day on Monday, March 22nd. Feel free to wear crazy socks or blue and yellow, the symbolic colors of the day. Check out some wonderful resources by clicking on the above link.

    Saying 'Goodbye' to an Amazing East Dover Bear
    It wasn't quite the goodbye many teachers imagine, but Mrs. Jaclyn Lomer announced her retirement during COVID-19's pandemic. She was not only an inspiration to the students she taught but to her fellow colleagues, as well. She started in 1984 at Hilltop Nursery, teaching preschool and full day kindergarten. In 1989, she became a 1st grade teacher at Seaside Park Elementary.  She worked there 21 years, until they had to close their doors after Hurrican Sandy.  In 2010, East Dover gained an excellent educator. Jackie started as a 3rd grade teacher and after 2 years, transferred to kindergarten, where she taught for 8 years.  During her 10 years at East Dover, Jackie was extremely involved in many committees, such as Parent Academy, Sunshine Club, Mind Aligned, Arts Integration, Assessment Committee, and others.  Jackie looks forward to her retirement hoping to enjoy some of her favorite activities like skiing, reading, relaxing at the beach, and doing arts and crafts.  We wish her all the best.  Please watch the beautiful video her daughters created by clicking on the above link.
