Resources
Helping Hands are Available
giving-hands-together.jpg
Just a reminder of the resources that are always available for you.  
It is very important that parents are equipped with many resources to help them help their children and help themselves. As parents this is not easy, because we do not have all of the answers for our children.  Please take advantage of the several resources to  help you. Remember you are not alone in this.  It takes a village as we continue to heal as a community and continue to support our children!

I would like to thank you personally for taking the time to update your profile. My goal is to ensure you have all the information you need for the schools and our community. 

If you have any questions or are not receiving the school newsletter specific to your child's school, in addition to the Falcon Flyer and NewsFlash, please contact me personally and I will assist you. 

 

Today is tax day and you do not have to cook tonight.  Stop by Luigi's for dinner tonight.  You can dine in or take out between
4 -10 PM to support our Middle School 8th graders.  

 

Don't forget to get your tickets for the family comedy show.

 

Spring is in the air and Burlington Township is definitely buzzing with activity.

 

Have a great day!
