As the new year begins, it is a great time to reflect on what we are thankful for and look to build off our positive experiences. We want to take this opportunity to publicly thank our Board of Education Members for their dedication, support, and service to the Beach Haven School Community. Volunteering and taking on the board's many responsibilities takes an extraordinary person to see our children have the best to grow and succeed. As their terms have ended, a special thank you to Jen Tomlinson and Meredith O’Donnell. Thank you for making a positive impact on the lives of our children. We will welcome Deborah Harkness and Jean Frazier to our Board this Thursday at our reorganization meeting.

Happy New Year!

The Beach Haven students have been quite busy in Art Class/Santa's Workshop!! From making ornaments out of oyster shells donated by the Arlington Restaurant in Ship Bottom, creating their one-of-a- kind glittery gingerbread houses, and making lovely holiday decorations to donate to the residents at The Terraces at Seacrest Village in Little Egg Harbor....our little elves have been extraordinarily busy!!!
