COVID UPDATES
Please note that the updates that were previously shared that went into effect on March 7th are highlighted in the Parent FAQ
NJSLA UPDATE
Earlier this year, we distributed the Annual Assessment Notification about standardized testing in our district. It included testing windows, but it was too early to share specific dates. At this time we wanted to make sure all families had the most current NJSLA Family Calendar 2022. As we get closer to the April dates, your child’s school will share additional information with you.
Important update to the calendar: Due to Take Your Child to Work Day on April 28, the third grade and sixth grade testing schedule has been adjusted as follows:
Grade 3 ELA April 29 and May 2 (no testing April 28)
Grade 6 Math April 29, May 2, May 4 (no testing April 28)
