Tenafly Chabad Academy eighth graders participated in the Teach NJ Virtual Mission to Trenton last week. The students met with state legislators to advocate for increased state funding of security guards, transportation and STEM in school. Through this session, students were able to gain better appreciation for the power of their collective voices and the impact of lobbying. The students also learned about the various issues that are relevant to their school, and the importance of making the community’s voices heard in Trenton.
