Principal Message - January 29, 2016
Wow! What a week! A little bit of snow and a whole lot of KINDNESS! I would like to thank all students, faculty, staff, PTO, and volunteers for helping to make The Great Kindness Challenge such a successful activity! Over 1,500 Acts of Kindness in three days!!! That is awesome!!! Great job by all!!!
I hope that this activity and the momentum generated continues our discussion and our actions of working together to make Hazelwood School and our community a better place. A simple smile, a small note, or well timed compliment can go a long way in making a person feel better.
A few videos to recap the week:

Wednesday, January 27, 2016 - Day 2

Hazelwood Elementary School Mission Statement
At Hazelwood Elementary School we believe…….
All students can and will learn in a nurturing school environment where collaboration and exploration is encouraged and will foster a lifelong love of learning.
Positive relationships are vital for student success. Our school doors will always be open to assist our families to ensure our students are growing academically, emotionally, and socially.
Hazelwood students will become confident, compassionate, respectful, and committed to making a difference not only in the classrooms and hallways of our school, but in our wonderful community of Middlesex Borough.
Cafeteria News - Point of Sale Debt System
I hope that you choose to use this option. It is a great way to limit the exchange of money and allows parents to monitor the food/drinks their child is purchasing. Using the Point of Sale Debt System also assists in making the lunch line a more efficient process.
Thank you for your anticipated cooperation.
Pre-School Registration
Again registration for pre-school is at Middlesex High School. Please use door 7. For any additional questions do not hesitate to contact the Office of Special Services at (732) 317-6000 ext. 20102.
