What You Need To Know
- Monday, October 12th is a Single Session Day: No lunch is served on single session days, but your child may bring a snack. Please plan accordingly as all staff have scheduled meetings and professional development activities scheduled. Please refer to the School Hours document: Reminder
- Mr. Dan's Class: 9:00am-12:25pm (same arrival)

- Week of Respect: Across the schools in New Jersey, this week is referred to as the Week of Respect. There is an extra emphasis on the meaning of respect. Through literature, role-playing, and age-appropriate vocabulary, students will strengthen their understanding of what it means to be respectful.
- Halloween 2026: It's almost October! I am confident that our students have been sharing their ideas for costumes for months! Please see the newsletter below for more details about our JPC Halloween Parade (October 30th at 9:15am)
- Emergency Contacts-Every student should have at laest one emergency contact, someone who lives in the area and can be reached to pick up your child(ren) in case of an emergency (i.e. the parent/guardian is not able to pick up when the child is sick, etc.). Please be sure to go into your Parent Portal account and update as needed. Directions here: Updating Contact Information
