Welcome to the 2025 – 2026 School Year!

We are excited to welcome Developmental Learning Center (DLC) students and their families as well as the MUJC community to the 2025 – 2026 school year! We have planned many new events and features for this year and look forward to sharing them with you. One notable change is that the Superintendent’s Spotlight, which focuses on events that students and staff are engaged in, will be distributed on the last school day of each month so that pictures of current events and happenings can be shared at the end of each month. We hope that you enjoy this new schedule and format! Welcome Back!

Sincerely,
Dr. Janet L. Fike
Superintendent

The DLC theme for the 2025 - 2026 school year: "Painting our Best Year!" We're looking forward to having a picture perfect year!

The 2025 Extended School Year ("ESY") was a huge success! Students and staff enjoyed many fun activities and experiences.

DLC - Warren students had an exciting and busy summer during ESY. Students participated in field trips to the Raritan Valley Community College Planetarium, the Raptor Trust, a local movie theater, and more! The students also participated in a number of on site events.

DLC - New Providence students had an action-packed ESY, both in the classroom and outside. Students were visited by the Turtle Back Zoo and enjoyed Sibling Day and Special Persons Day, just to name a few events.

During ESY 2025, students were busy practicing skills in school and out in the community. The students packaged candy for our troops, cleaned up parks and crushed cans for St. Barnabas Burn Unit. Thank you, DLC students, for your hard work and dedication in helping our community!

Throughout ESY, students tended to the DLC – New Providence herb garden, which was planted in the spring as part of our Climate Change Grant through the New Jersey Department of Education. Students harvested the herbs and donated them to the local Samaritan Homeless Interim Program Food Bank. Thank you to all who participated in this endeavor!
