HOME OF THE "PROUD PATRIOTS"
The mission of Cedar Grove Elementary is to grow our students into respectful, curious and productive citizens.
The Start of a New Year
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year! As we begin a new calendar year and the start of a new trimester, it's a great time for our students to recommit to growing as learners. We are SO proud of their hard work so far this year and we can't wait to see how much they will grow!
Please join us to work together with our students to participate fully in our learning communities by collectively committing to being a “Proud Patriot!”
- RESPECTFUL: When we are respectful, we care about how our words and actions will affect other people. When we are respectful we value each other’s point of view, even if we disagree. When we are respectful, we are polite and kind and treat each other with dignity.
- CURIOUS: When we are curious we can grow our brains. A curious person wants to learn, even when it’s hard. When we are curious, we ask questions, read, listen and try new things. Curious people often think about things they never thought about before.
- PRODUCTIVE: When we are productive, we achieve big and small goals. Being productive means finishing what we started. Productive people work hard and are proud when they accomplish their goals, tasks and work.
Together, we will continue to grow our students academically, socially and emotionally. Go "Proud Patriots!"
Important Dates & Cafeteria Info...
As you know, from previous district and school communications, federal waivers for free meals expired in June 2022. All districts have been required to return to pre-pandemic operations for the 2022-23 school year. Meals free of charge will be available only to those students who qualify through Direct Certification, Categorical Eligibility, or the 2022-2023 Application for Free and Reduced Price School Meals. Please contact the main office if you need assistance with completing an application: 732.505.5830.
We encourage you to review the weekly menu with your child to determine what days (if any) they will purchase lunch. Our district is committed to ensuring the health of our students and we will never deny a student lunch if they report that they are hungry or have not brought a lunch from home.
