A Message from the Principals
Hello Millbridge families,
On Thursday, the Delran Township Board of Education approved a change to our instructional plan. Parents and guardians should have received an email from the district. We have captured key information below.
Next week, we will be sharing information with our first and second grade parents explaining how concurrent learning will work at Millbridge. Students will need to have computer and internet access on the days they do not attend school in person from 9:00-2:15.
We are working on contacting all of our families who are participating in remote instruction to discuss the program and offer a final opportunity for students to return to in-person learning. We will continue making calls on Saturday and on Monday morning, and hope to speak to everyone by noon on Monday. It is extremely important that if we leave a message for you that our call is returned.
Educationally yours,
Mrs. Lowe and Mrs. Murphy

Additionally, the afternoon meets that occur for students on their opposite cohort days between 1:30-3:30 on Thursday and Friday are also cancelled.
The afternoon preschool will run as scheduled.
