After a very successful dance provided by our Beach Haven P.T.A. with students from LBI and Stafford attending, LBI has invited us to their dance on March 1st.

The First Grade students began the preliminary work for our new artist focus. The class created a horizon line on canvas using sky blue and white acrylic paints. Once the canvas dries, the artists will carefully paint their brightly adorned candly apples to be part of the Beach Haven Confectionery Shoppe!

Stay tuned for sweet treats!

Students who attend school regularly have been shown to achieve at higher levels than students who do not have regular attendance. This relationship between attendance and achievement may appear early in a child's school career. A recent study looking at young children found that absenteeism in kindergarten was associated with negative first grade outcomes such as greater absenteeism in subsequent years and lower achievement in reading, math, and general knowledge

Chronic Absenteeism is defined by the U.S. Department of Education as missing 15 days or more a year. If your child reaches 18 or more absences, it then has to be reported to the State of New Jersey for our School Performance Reports.

If you wish to have a student seen by our school counselor, please fill out this form. The responses to this form will be checked once a week. If you have something more urgent to inform the school about, please get in touch with the school's main office during business hours at 609-492-7411. (If your child is in crisis, please dial 988 for support and 911 for emergencies).
