INCREDIBLE NEWS FOR OUR SCHOOL AND CHURCH COMMUNITY!
Mrs. Fortunato’s Message
Dear Parents,
As you can see, we have heard back from Hunterdon Happenings and I could not be happier! This news could not have come at a better time. It is an affirmation that our school's hard work has not gone unnoticed. Our focus to grow and develop over the past year has created a strong and cohesive community! As we revel in this wonderful accomplishment, I encourage you to stay grateful, humble, and thank God for all the blessings that surround us.
I want to reiterate how proud I am of our teachers and students! The teachers have earned this recognition and I am in awe of their dedicated work ethic, love of students, and determination to plan excellent virtual lessons, strategies and techniques to best meet the needs of all our students. It is important for all to stay agile as we continue to make adjustments and modifications to best online teaching practices. As with the faculty, I encourage open and honest communication with your child's teacher. It is truly appreciated and necessary as we partner to support our student learners.
Our school will stay abreast of the current news from Governor Murphy’s office about the COVID-19 outbreak. Please continue to practice good hygiene, social distancing, and limiting leaving your home for non-essential visits.
All NJ schools will be closed until April 17, 2020. He will revisit his decision to open schools before that time. Our Office of Schools will continue to stay in touch with the Governor’s office and follow his lead as he determines what is best for schools. Please note, Easter break has not changed! Our break is scheduled to begin 12:00 pm Thursday, April 9, 2020 through Friday, April 17, 2020. The plan is for school to resume on Monday, April 20, 2020. If this date changes, I will be in touch during the Easter break.
Please remember, Father Jay, Father Michael, and Joseph stream daily Mass for our ICC and ICC community. You can access current and past Masses on the church and school Facebook pages.
I want to reemphasize; this is a time in history like no other. ICS continues to make me proud! We have proven to be strong, dedicated to excellent education, and full of faith. Thank you for supporting virtual learning with your student. Continue to stay safe, healthy, and connected.
Continue to pray for our community’s health and happiness.
Mrs. Connie Fortunato
