Every year, the Monday after the Super Bowl, our student government organizes "Wear a Pair . . . Share a Pair." Pajamas collected are donated to the NJ Pajama Program who provides pajamas and bedtime books for children in need throughout the state. The program is founded on the belief that changing into cozy pajamas lets you shed the stress of the day for warmth and hope. #TomorrowStartsTonight #BigSchoolBigHeart #PantherPride
