It's time to spring ahead!
That extra hour of "Daylight Saving Time" was initially introduced in the United States as a way to save energy during the war production of World War I. The idea was borrowed from Germany in 1918 but then practice was stopped once the war ended. DST was reintroduced during World War II (as “War Time”) starting in February 1942 and ending in September 1945. The United States considered adopting a year-round daylight saving time 1974-1975 in response to energy consumption during the oil embargo.
Daylight Saving was brought back in 1966 with the Uniform Time Act. It was initially set to begin on the last Sunday in April and then shift back to Standard Time at the end of October. The start time and end time shifted again in 1987, and again in 2007, to its current dates (beginning on the second Sunday in March and ending on the first Sunday in November).
This year, Daylight Saving Time occurs the earliest that it can. We set our clocks ahead at 2AM on Sunday, March 8th.

Snow Day for Friday, March 6th
The Department of Elementary and Secondary Education's Office for Food and Nutrition Programs featured a Lenox Public Schools lunch tray as the lead image in their March School Meals Newsletter to spotlight what fantastic what fresh, locally grown school lunches can look like. Let's hear it for our food service crew. Way to go !
"For students at Lenox Public Schools, Taco Tuesday got a flavorful, local upgrade. Students enjoyed fish tacos topped with a tangy maple citrus slaw — a vibrant combination proudly featuring local ingredients, including cabbage from David Mokrzecki Farm in Hadley, MA, and maple syrup from Ioka Valley Farm in Hancock, MA. The fresh cilantro and a mix of salad greens were grown by Lenox students and staff using their in-house Fork Farm hydroponic system (originally purchased through a MA FRESH grant in 2024!). The tacos were finished with a house-made garlic lime sriracha mayo for the perfect kick. The tray also features black beans and corn, a crisp local apple from Pine Hill Orchards in Colrain, MA, and a side salad which also included locally grown greens from Little Leaf Farms in Devens, MA, garnished with purple daikon radish from MX Morningstar Farm in Hudson, NY — all served alongside 1% Hood milk from Crescent Creamery in Pittsfield, MA. Consider adding these local touches to bring delicious local flavors to your fish tacos and follow their Instagram account at @lenoxpsfoodservices. "

Breakfast Quest continues...
The weather did not stop our quest to find out what vegetable was hidden in the smoothies.
Morris students taste tested our new peachy green and berry sneaky smoothies.
The peachy green smoothie was made with Bok Choy and the berry sneaky was made with beet greens.
Both greens are grown right in the cafeteria in our hydroponic systems and planted by Mrs. Perkins class.
