*UPDATE!* The bench has been delivered and awaits installation!

Dear CHB Community Past and Present,

At long last, we have secured approval and a commitment from the Montclair School District to install a memorial bench in honor of Melissa Hodgins, beloved educator at CHB. The bench was the selection of the teachers, who felt that a conversation bench would honor Melissa's memory as she loved to chat with students outside and give them hugs.

The bench is being provided by T2 Site Amenities. It is a green/sustainable design selected by the school/staff and complies with all District requirements.

As soon as we reach the donation threshhold, we will order the bench and plaque, and the bench will be installed.

Thank you in advance for your generosity.
