Updated Physicals and Immunizations
If you have not already done so, please send in your latest physical and the latest immunization record for you student. This can be a physical copy or through email to Mrs. Hummel at ahummel@lumberton.k12.nj.us. Thanks for your attention to this.
We Need Your Help
With the increased number of students attending AES on a daily basis, our list of students who have not completed the AUXS app is getting longer. We have limited staff available to screen and call families and limited space to house our students who are not cleared. We appreciate your help in filling out the app each morning so your children can go directly to class. Some families have found success by setting an alarm on their phone as a reminder to complete the app.

Principal's Reading Recommendation
We just ordered "Boxitects" by Kim Smith as part of a large order of diverse literature for our classrooms. This one stood out as a fun and exciting stories about two creative students who learn to work together. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRgXDpzxNvg
