Vision

SJG: Achieving excellence, creating lifelong learners, and building strong character.

Mission

Stephen J. Gerace Elementary School creates a foundation for success through a comprehensive curriculum which fosters critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration, while emphasizing respect and appreciation for the individuality of others. In partnership with families, staff and the community, our students are given the necessary tools to become caring, knowledgeable, responsible, and confident individuals who are equipped to thrive not only as students, but as members of a global society.

• Summer Vacation!

While we don't require students to do traditional summer work, there are options that our district has for our students including their MyPath being open until Mid August. If you click the link below, you will enter out PRinTS website which contains all the information for ELA and Math options. While I understand that students need a break from school and that is the reason for Summer vacation, I do believe that our students need to read during the summer and complete some of these activities to avoid summer slide (regression) and start school at the same or a higher place then when they left. I ask each parent to please consider having their children do some of the summer activities on the website. Thank you.

If you don't want to go through the stores to find your school supplies, you can order through Schoolkidz. The supplies are delivered to the school and are on your child's desk when they enter on day 1! Give it a look!

If you are looking for future events, we update the SJG Calendar of Events as we solidify dates. You can find the calendar on our website but below is the link that we will keep in our newsletter going forward.

We have a new Pequannock Township School District Promotional Video that was created by PTHS students as part of a passion project. This is amazing! Give it a view!

Thank you for a wonderful year! Enjoy your summer, be safe in the sun and stay healthy!
