SBHS Families,
We were saddened to learn of the passing of our Project Graduation co-chair and long-time member Cathy Butler. Cathy passed away on November 9th surrounded by her loving family. She was an important member of our SBHS community and will be sorely missed.
Please keep her family in your thoughts and prayers.

Senior Dinner Cruise Reminders
Please have your sons/daughters report to the main entrance at SBHS by 3:45 PM tomorrow 11/17. If they are driving, there is always the potential for students to return back from the cruise after 11 PM. This may be an issue for any GDL licensed drivers.
In addition, please speak to your children about the importance of making good choices and decisions during all school-sponsored events. They should review our code of conduct and be aware of infractions and consequences, such as possessing/using tobacco or vaping devices, possessing/using drugs and/or alcohol, and following our dress code, to name a few.
We want our senior students to be safe and responsible while having fun.
Homework Free Holidays for the 2018-2019 School Year
Hello South Brunswick Families,
Once again, South Brunswick is purposefully and intentionally designating “ homework free” nights throughout the year. The purpose of homework free nights is to give students time off from preparing homework and projects and studying for tests, as well as offering students an opportunity to explore topics that they are passionate about, spend time with family, enjoy outside activities, and attend South Brunswick events. There is tremendous value in engaging in meaningful homework assignments that reinforce concepts and skills taught during the school day. At the same time, there are times when we need to collectively have a break from the responsibilities of homework and enjoy time with family and friends.
“Homework Free" dates to span the 2018-2019 school year:
Fall: November 21-25, 2018 (Thanksgiving Holiday) - No assignments due or tests given on the day of return, November 26 & 27th
Winter: December 21, 2018 – January 2, 2019 (Winter Break) - No assignments or long-range projects due or tests given before January 7 & 8th.
Winter: February 15, 2019 – February 18, 2019 (Presidents Weekend) - No assignments due or tests given on the day of return, February 19 & 20th.
Spring: April 19, 2019 – April 28, 2019 (Spring Break) - No assignments or long-term projects due or tests given before May 1 & 2nd.
