Pine Bush Elementary School embraces diversity with a week of celebration!

Pine Bush Elementary School was bursting with color, creativity, and culture last week as students and staff came together for an unforgettable Diversity Week! The theme of the week centered around celebrating our differences by recognizing and respecting others.

Throughout the week, students expressed their individuality and unity by designing unique puzzle pieces, wearing vibrant colors and patterns, and welcoming family members who shared their cultural traditions. Thursday brought a special treat as guest readers visited classrooms to read inspiring books that highlighted the beauty of diversity and inclusion.
