Ahoy! Happy Friyay! Todayās Super High 5 goes to CVE's Principal Michael Barone. Mr. Barone worked with the amazing food services staff to serve lunch and wrap up National School Lunch Week. Mr. Barone enjoyed a yummy slice of pizza with the students and since he remembered to eat all of his fruits and veggies, all of the kids earned an extra healthy snack!
