Students learn a lesson in respect
Third-graders at Enfield Elementary School enjoyed a special assembly on respect and environmentalism Friday, which culminated in a visit from Dumpo - the elephant mascot of J.P. Mascaro & Sons, the event's organizer.
We teach the kids everything about the Golden Rule, respecting each other and authority, parents and teachers, and segue that into respecting the environment," Mascaro's director of communications Frank Sau said.
J.P. Mascaro & Sons is a solid-waste company with corporate headquarters in Montgomery County. The company started the Respect program a year and a half ago, Sau said, and environmental education is an important component.

• Arrival occurs in our RESPECT PROGRAM VAN that draws instantaneous excitement and curiosity from all who see it.
• Easy set up involves our LCD projector and display which makes the program visual and interactive to students.
• This presentation was developed to be convenient for schools. It can be easily worked around a classroom setting with a smaller group, or as a large assembly. The entire presentation, including set up time, should last about 45 minutes.
• There is a question & answer portion of the program that includes an appearance by The Respect Program mascot, DUMPO the Elephant, which all students will be sure to love and remember. Dumpo will be giving away prizes to all children involved.
• Each student will receive an ACTIVITY BOOK and each teacher will receive a teacher's guide that correlates with the student book. The books can be used as whole class instruction or independent work. The booklets include valuable information, fun activities, a sticker page insert, as well as a "Certificate of Completion".
• The school will be given POSTERS based on The Respect Program to hang up around the school and to give to students to take home. J. P. Mascaro & Sons is also sponsoring a Poster Contest allowing students the chance to have fun and be creative.
