Hello,

 

This week we will have a special schedule to get all our students ready for the NJSLA assessments, which the children will take starting on May 4. You can see details HERE. It is crucial that children come to school on time during these weeks as we will start our work sessions right after breakfast.

Thanks to all the families that are participating in our Chocolate Fundraising effort. Please make sure to bring back all boxes with the money you raised, even if you didn’t sell the entire box.

 

Help us recruit our next Fourth Graders

Invite families you know to apply at NewarkCommonApp.org.
We are happy to give a tour of the school to all interested families.

Pick-up flyers at the school or refer people to our website.

Reminders: 

  • Students are marked late starting at 8:20 am. We open our doors at 7:30 am for students who need to come to school earlier. We dismiss our students between 3:45 and 4:00 pm.
  • Students need to wear tops with the school logo. You can purchase these at Land’sEnds. You can find more details about the dress code on our school uniform page..
  • Remember that you can access the 25-26 school calendar, and that you can access the Parent Portal on Realtime, or download the Realtime Parent Link app (Apple store or Google Play)
