Nicole Foulks EWRSD Principal since 2016

One of my favorite things about being a principal is seeing the bright smiles on students' faces as they enter the building each day, full of excitement and love for learning. I’m continually amazed by the tremendous academic and social-emotional growth they achieve during their time here at EMK. I'm so fortunate to work with excellent educators who foster that growth everyday.

Heather Gladkowski EWRSD Principal since 2014

I love seeing how students learn and grow during their years in our school. Having the opportunity to support the work of the amazing staff at WCB is a point of pride for me. Family events are always so much fun! I really love the Color Fun Run. Such a great time with staff and students!

Jazmyn Allen EWRSD Principal since 2024

My favorite thing about being a principal is supporting teachers and connecting with students. It excites me to be a part of their growth, whether it's helping teachers thrive in their craft or watching students develop confidence and skills that will last a lifetime.

Samantha Felicetta EWRSD Principal since 2013

My favorite thing about being a principal is interacting with students and helping them become the person they are meant to be in this world. No two days are the same, but everyday is a chance to create opportunities for kids to grow. It's an honor to work with the MHK community. Staff, parents, and students make being a principal fun!

Dennis Vinson EWRSD Principal since 2013

What I love most about being the principal of HHS is serving as our school community’s number one champion. I take great pride in seeing how our students, staff, and families unite and celebrate all that we accomplish together. Every day brings new challenges and opportunities, and I look forward to continuing to help our school thrive in an ever-changing world.

NJ EdCERT

Public Service Announcement

NJ EdCert is the new way the DOE is tracking your certifications. It is also the way we identify teacher mentors and mentees for the DOE. Often, when we enter a mentor's name and district, they come up as having no certifications. Of course we know our teachers are certified. We then need to look up any former names or other ways to identify official certifications for the DOE.


Please go into your NJEdCERT account, make sure your certifications are up to date and be sure they are identified as the name you are working under.

GCN

It's that time of year again. Please be sure to go into your GCN account and complete all the required modules. This must be completed annually. If you are a newly hired staff, you must also complete the required training on Suicide.


During the 25-26 school year ALL STAFF will start the suicide training cycle again. Every 5 years all staff must complete this updated module. Everyone will have this in their required list for the summer.


Please complete your GCN modules by November 8, 2024.

Professional Development

October 14th marked the district's second professional development day. The day was very successful and a large part of that success was our internal PD providers. Thank you so much for working collaboratively with our staff!

We also had several outside presenters including "The Leader in Me" at the K-2 level and TESO, our partner in diversity training. Feedback was very positive, and I thank all of you who provided feedback on our form. We will take your suggestions into our next planning efforts.

The photo was taken from one of the end of the day sessions.

Covid

Yes, Covid is still hanging on. Luckily, with the protocols we put in place and the vaccination protocols, the severity of Covid has been reduced. Fewer people are being hospitalized from COvid.

However, we still must take precautions when feeling ill or testing positive for Covid, or the Flu, or RSV, or..........


If you have a fever, you should stay home for 24 hours after the fever is normal. If you are actively symptomatic for any contagious illness, please stay home. Illnesses can travel rapidly in a classroom environment.

If you test positive for Covid, stay home if actively ill. If you are not experiencing symptoms you may return to work and wear a mask for 5 days.


Please continue to use good judgement as we approach the indoor season.

1. wash your hands- often.

2. cover nose and mouth when coughing or sneezing.

3. wipe down surfaces often

4. stay home if you have a fever

5. wear a mask if you think you might be contagious

6. stay hydrated


Be well this season everyone!
