Principal's Message
Dear Allenwood Families,
As we head into the final months of the school year, I want to take a moment to celebrate some recent highlights and share upcoming information with our school community.
First and foremost, a heartfelt thank you to Mr. Vasile for organizing an amazing art show! The creativity and talent displayed by our students was truly inspiring, and it was wonderful to see so many families come out to enjoy the exhibit. We are grateful for Mr. Vasile’s dedication and passion for the arts—it truly brought our school community together in a special way.
I would also like to extend a big thank you to our PTG and all of the students who participated in the Science Fair. The projects were thoughtful, innovative, and engaging, and the entire event showcased the incredible curiosity and problem-solving skills of our young scientists. We are so proud of the hard work and enthusiasm that went into every display!
As we look ahead, I want to remind families that our NJSLA testing window is quickly approaching. Please see the schedule below and make every effort to ensure your child is present, well-rested, and ready to do their best:
-
