PV WEEKLY

The link to order yearbooks is open. This is only for 6th and 7th grade families. If you are an 8th grade parent, please do not order one as you pay for it through the 8th grade fees (the email was shared last week).

Any 6th or 7th grade student interested in purchasing a yearbook should use the following link to order:

The Pequannock Profile of a Graduate is a district-wide initiative that outlines the skills and qualities that our community expects students to develop in order to succeed in their future endeavors, whether in higher education, the workforce, military service, or other career paths. The next area of focus is reflection.

Graduates reflect on experiences, learn from feedback, and continuously grow as learners and individuals. Additionally, they:

• Encourage thoughtful expression, growth, and continuous improvement

• Are open to and accepting of feedback

• Think about possible outcomes before making decisions and taking action

• Are committed to growing and learning in all situations and experiences

Any families that might benefit from free and reduced lunch are encouraged to check out the district’s website and consider applying. If you qualified last year, please be sure to apply again this year as the program requires annual updates. Also, some families might also qualify under the New Jersey Expanded Income Eligibility (NJEIE) program. Students will receive lunches identical to those of their peers and their information remains confidential.

All attendance-related emails must be sent to pvattendance@pequannock.org or call the attendance line directly @ 973-616-6050 (option #2).

If a parent receives a Robocall after 9:00 A.M., this means that the school received neither an email nor a phone call pertaining to their absence. If you receive this call, you must contact the school.
