SUPERINTENDENTS UPDATE
Egg Harbor Township School Community:
We begin the month of April by moving right into Spring Break 2023 beginning with a half day on Thursday, April 6th. Schools will reopen on Monday, April 17th. Spring Break is a great time for students, teachers, and staff to relax, regroup, and refocus on what needs to be done for teaching and learning for the remainder of the school year. Upon returning to school, all eyes will be on the final marking period/ trimester and end of the year activities. Be sure to check your child’s school calendar for events as there will be many in the upcoming two months.
Spring sports begin this month and will bring much excitement for our school community. Check out this link to our Athletic Department webpage where you will find team schedules. The High School Performing Arts Department will perform the musical Beauty and the Beast on April 27, 28, 29, and 30th. Tickets will be available online for seating.
Please know that communication is important to all of us. If you have any questions or concerns, it is best to contact your child’s teacher, guidance counselor, assistant principal, and/or principal to receive factual information. Relying on facebook or social media may cause confusion and can result in time being wasted on opinion and not facts. Every district employee are here to assist in every way possible.
We are committed to improving student achievement when we EMBRACE, ENGAGE, and EDUCATE the students of the Egg Harbor Township School District. #EHTPride

CLIMATE, CULTURE & #EHTPride
We are dedicated to learning together, growing together, and healing together within a positive school climate. Celebrations of recognition and reward for achievement, even the littlest steps, will occur in all of our schools as we value the importance of appreciation and respect. We have a lot of #EHTPride in taking care of our students and showcasing their achievements.
We are committed to setting a foundation of culture in our school that includes respect for diversity, inclusion and equity for ALL students and staff. To empower our school community to be positive, supportive, patient, and understanding.To unify all members around one central goal that includes nurturing a strong culture that allows students, teachers, staff, and community members to flourish as individuals and as a community.
With Every Hand Together, Every child, Everyday is provided a relevant learning experience. Our teachers collaborate in professional learning communities to review student progress in order to provide ALL students with the opportunity to learn at high levels. We know that in order to successfully educate each student, we must be cognizant of each student’s individual learning needs. This can only be accomplished if we work together to eliminate any predictability of achievement disparities by race, ethnicity, gender, language, disability, and/or economics. All faculty and staff participated in equity training during our professional learning days. Together, we can achieve more!
