SNACK TIME celebrate soy


During April, National Soyfoods Month, try incorporating this healthy option into one of your family's meals.

Over a third of Americans enjoy a dinner that includes soyfoods, that is, food made from soybeans. Soyfoods include products made from tofu-and edamame. 

Tofu, or bean curd, is a soft cheese-like food made that is made by curdling soy milk with a coagulant*. The curds are pressed into rectangular or square blocks, similar to the way cheese is made with milk curds. Tofu is made in a variety of textures—soft, firm, and extra-firm—that have different purposes. Tofu has very little flavor on its own, so it can be used either in savory or sweet dishes, and it is often seasoned or marinated to suit the dish.

Edamame is young soybeans, usually still in the pod. Because the beans are young and green when they are picked, edamame soybeans are soft and edible, not hard and dry like the mature soybeans which are used to make soy milk and tofu.

Some grocery stores sell green edamame that has been hulled (beans have been removed) resulting in just the beans. This hulled edamame is great for making salads or adding to rice dishes but also as a flavorful, nutritious snack on its own!

Soyfoods, like tofu and edemame are easy to digest, low in fat and sodium, and a good source of B vitamins and calcium plus and isoflavones.  

Tofu is an exceptional food—not only because it is highly nutritious, but because it can be prepared in such a remarkably wide variety of ways. The uses for tofu are limited only by a chef’s imagination. 

Soyfoods are easy to prepare and simple to incorporate into your favorite dishes. Here are some ways to increase soy in your diet:

Breakfast: Try soymilk on hot or cold cereal with some berries
Lunch: Try deli alternatives like soy “hot dogs” that taste great and offer all the benefits of soy.
Dinner: Meat alternatives are easy, try making tacos with soy crumbles in place of ground beef
Snack: Soyfood snacks like whole soy nutrition bars, soy yogurt and soy pudding 

Any time snacks: trade the candy box for something healthier: soy nuts covered in milk chocolate or a vanilla yogurt-based coating. 
Or 
Soynuts:  offer a solid crunch, and are found flavored with seasonings of barbeque, teriyaki, onion, garlic or just plain.
Or 
Edamame  - steamed young soybeans served in-the-pod can be a fun treat, hot or cold.

Soyfoods are a nutritious option for children and busy families. Plus they taste great!

Special Fifth Grade Instrumental Event
The Fifth Grade strings instrumental class performed an informal mini-concert with their parents and grandparents in attendance. They provided a glimpse into the fundamental aspects of practicing a string instrument. In the middle of the mini-concert the parents and grandparents were met with a surprise. 

Students invited their parents to come and do a 'role reversal'. A handful of students came up in front of the audience to demonstrate how to hold a violin and cello. Students successfully taught their invited guest how to hold and play several notes on their instrument.

Pre-school Lunch
Pre-schoolers Samantha Nocella and Alina Desai were the winners of the Re-Enrollment drawing for "Lunch with the Director".  They had a wonderful lunch with Pre-school Director, Candace Atherton!

Junior High Canned Food Drive
Canning Hunger
Fairmont Private Schools require our junior high students to acquire 36 hours of community service before eighth grade promotion.  The junior high is sponsoring a can drive,  "One Can At A Time" , for Canning Hunger and we are asking for your help in making this a success.  A flyer was send home with your child that explains the program.  The junior high students will receive one hour of service for every 10 cans/boxes that they bring in.  We are trying to plant the seeds of philanthropy early in our junior high students  and hope that you will support them!

Please leave your donations in the marked boxes around the campus before April 31.

Edgewood Parking Lot Safety Reminders
Parking lot:
1) Parents need to enter the churchparking lot from Vanderlip ONLY. We want to have one way traffic in that parking lot. If parents ask another person (grandparent, friend etc) to pick/drop off their child, they need to inform that person of the procedure.
2) Parents need to slow down in all the parking lots. Please no speeding.
3) No parking on the red curb.
4) No running in the parking lots.
5) Children need to stay by their parents' side in the parking lot at all times.
