Message from the Principal

Dear Families,

Spring is finally here, and with it comes an exciting and busy time at our school! We have many activities and important dates ahead, and we look forward to a wonderful season of learning and growth.

As a reminder, Spring Recess is approachingβ€”please enjoy this special time with your children. School will reopen on April 13.

Looking ahead, NJSLA testing will begin on April 27. We encourage all students to be well-rested and ready to do their best.

Also, with warmer weather on the way, students may begin wearing shorts starting May 1, in accordance with our school dress guidelines.

Thank you for your continued support. We hope you enjoy a safe, relaxing, and fun-filled spring season!


Warm regards,
Principal

Ms. Mazzola
