New DUE MAY 11 Student Placement Letter from Ms. Phelan.
New Note from the Transportation Director: Beginning Monday, May 7, traffic on Old Fort Road will be reduced to one lane as contractors begin construction for sidewalk installation. Most school buses that use Old Fort Road will be detoured.
Many children from all three schools use that road to walk to and from home. With the addition of construction equipment and vehicles, it will be even more congested. Please use extreme caution if you choose to drive on Old Fort Road. Detouring around that road would be preferable. Please remind your children who walk on that road to be extra cautious during this phase of construction.
New A Note from Ms. Davis-Campbell, School Counselor
Each year as we approach the NJASK testing period, I receive numerous questions about test preparation. Included among the variety of questions are concerns about sleep. How much sleep does my child need? Is there a correlation between the amount of sleep a child gets and school success? I decided to do a little research and discovered some age-old information which reaffirms our existing beliefs about sleep, but also conveys some new thoughts that challenge us to consider old habits and patterns. The attached article, written by the GreatSchools Staff, does more than just give us the usual prescription: "Make sure your child gets a good night sleep before the test." It alerts us to more serious consequences of lack of sleep on our children's behavior and school performance, and provides ways to help us become our child's sleep advocate.
