Long Valley Elementary School to Celebrate 50 Years Friday

A half-century’s worth of Long Valley students have walked through the hallways of Old Farmers Road School, many of whom have had their own children attend the elementary classes on Old Farmers Road.

On Friday, Sept. 18, the school will honor and celebrate its history with an outdoor event to mark the school’s 50th year as part of the Washington Township School District.

“The purpose of the ceremony is to honor the retirees who have served our school over the past 50 years. Students, staff, and guests are asked to dress like it is 1965!” a letter from Principal Joe Ciulla said.

Guest speakers and songs from current students will be showcased, as well as cars from the 1950s and 1960s on display.

Old Farmers Road School alumni are welcome to attend the outdoor event, which will take place from 9:30 to 10 a.m.
