A Note from Deanne Somers, Superintendent 

We are so excited to share the updates to our Reopening Schedule ! Onsite instruction, five days a week (8:45 AM - 1:05 PM) begins Monday, April 26th! Hurray! Please see Tuesday’s e-blast for additional information.

It has been an enormous undertaking creating a schedule which safely accommodates all of our students onsite while also supporting our remote students! Please see the April 26th Step X Reopening Plan Information on our district website. Included are Arrival/Dismissal updates and a new Reopening Plan Highlights Presentation . We thank you in advance for your understanding and flexibility!

   A Note from Raul Sandoval, Principal

Arrival & Dismissal: I want to thank you all for your cooperation with our new arrival and dismissal procedures.  Now that we have seen how our new procedures work, we have made a few changes.  The changes will ensure that all students are safe and that arrival and dismissal runs as efficiently as possible.  You can find an updated map and a letter with a brief description of the changes by clicking here.   

Our Y Aftercare Program has been expanded to accommodate the 1:05 PM dismissal schedule beginning April 26th. The West Essex Y.M.C.A. will provide an Extended Aftercare Program from 1:05pm - 6:00pm.  The program will provide homework support, snacks, outdoor play/physical activity, safe socialization, and enrichment.  The tuition is $150 per week. A $50 registration fee will be charged at the time of registration (waived for current program participants).  Y members receive a $10 discount per week on tuition fees. The new program would start the week of April 26, but spaces are limited. If you have any questions please contact Ava at 973-992-7500, ext. 1703 or email acollazo@metroymcas.org

A Note from Rich Celebre, Supervisor of Special Services

As we continue our focus on Autism Acceptance Month, the students have had the opportunity to watch videos and discuss topics such as Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) (“Loop” by Pixar) and sensory processing. Our staff and students have discussed how these elements of life can be different for everyone, and what we can do to support and accept those differences. 

We are all very excited to have students back in the building for 5 day a week instruction starting this Monday, April 26th. Looking ahead, our related service providers are currently working on rearranging schedules so as to accommodate for all of the changes and potential impacts it may have on student availability. Please, be on the lookout for correspondences regarding your child’s times for their services. If, by the end of the week, you do not hear - please, reach out directly to the service provider or your Case Manager to confirm your child’s time. I thank you all, in advance, for your continued support and collaboration as we work our way through any potential hiccups in transitioning to our next phase. 

For your Calendars: 

This week! Thursday, April 22nd, the SEPAC will be holding their next Parent Collaboration Meeting @ 7PM .
