March at Millbridge
- We have been focused on literacy and reading during our "Read Across America Week." We had guest readers, theme days, and a parade! The students met their goals of reading and bringing in their Bingo Boards and, as promised, Mr. Stolarick did something silly on Friday, March 8th! (See the Chicken Picture)
- We are looking forward to next week and a scheduled "Community Day" and PCPEP Day on 3/14 and 3/15. We will hold Invitational Parent Conferences on the afternoon and evening of the 14th. (Teachers will reach out if they deem a conference is necessary.) The staff will have professional development and collaboration time on the Friday the 15th. Both days are single session days.
- Report Cards 2nd Trimester - Parents will be able to view the report cards starting on Thursday, March 14th at 12pm.
- Please remember as we make the final push towards the end of the school year to take some time weekly, and read with your student.
Have a great weekend!

Congratulations Mrs. Huber
Second Grade Teacher, Mrs. Liz Huber, is retiring after 25 years of service to Millbridge Elementary School. Liz started here in 1999 and taught for five years as a Kindergarten Teacher before moving to the 2nd Grade Wing. Liz has fond memories of Millbridge, especially the unity she experienced with the staff. Liz stated, "The entire school would routinely fundraise together." Liz also remembers becoming a part of the Millbridge culture. "The overwhelming thing is you just come here and become a part of the school so quickly." Liz's plans include building a new home adjacent to her son and grandchild within the natural beauty of the Pinelands. Congratulations Mrs. Huber!

ST Math – a new supplemental resource for math!
Can a game change how you feel about math? We believe every student has the potential to deeply understand, and truly love math. ST Math is a visual instructional program that uses puzzles to teach math and develop problem-solving skills while having fun. As a part of our math curriculum, your student has been given an ST Math account. ST Math is carefully designed to be effective and challenging. Puzzles start out simple and get harder as your student progresses. To help your student solve problems, ask your student what is happening in the games and have them explain their thinking. Click here for an intro to ST Math, and to try it out for yourself!

Arrival and Dismissal
- Only Millbridge staff members are permitted in the bus loop and on the sidewalk closest to the school during arrival and dismissal. Parents should not gather in or around the school building. Please help us ensure a safe and orderly arrival by dropping off your child quickly.
Our school hours are 9:00 a.m. to 3:20 p.m. daily. Students cannot arrive before 8:50 a.m., as there is no supervision until that time.
Student drop-off begins at 8:50 AM after the first bell rings and our staff will begin to unload the carpool lane and buses.
Preschool and Kindergarten will enter through door #19 located directly after the bus loop. First Grade will enter through the main entrance and Second Grade will enter through the gym doors, #2.
The drop-off for carpool students is located by the cafeteria in the large loop. A Millbridge staff member will be there each morning to greet your child by opening the car door. Please have your child behind the passenger seat as this makes it easier for the staff member to let the children out in a timely fashion. Please do not exit your car for safety and efficiency reasons.
If you will be walking your child to school, please use the sidewalk closest to the street. Millbridge staff who are on duty will meet your child so they can enter school. Only staff and students are permitted on the sidewalks in front of the school during arrival and dismissal. We know the first day of school is a memory that parents like to hold near and dear with pictures. We encourage pictures are taken at home to allow a smooth transition for arrival.
Students must be dropped off by 9:00 a.m. After that time, you will have to bring your child to the front office to be signed in. No parent cars will be permitted in the front lot or bus lane before 9:00am. Parent drop-offs will enter and exit the school's driveway closest to Hartford Road. It is a complete loop and will bring you back out to the same entrance location.
If your child will be riding the bus, you can access information about their bus in Parent Portal. Login information was mailed out a few weeks ago. Please direct any busing questions to our transportation coordinator at sjankowski@delranschools.org.
The Burlington County YMCA operates a before and after-school childcare program. For information, rates, or to register your child for this program, please visit their website.
Dismissal will begin at 3:20 PM, at which time all students will be escorted to the area designated for parent pickup, placed on their bus, or sent to Prime Time. Walkers and carpool students are dismissed through the cafeteria doors. For parents picking their child up, you will need to present government-issued identification and sign your child out or use your Fast Pass. We kindly ask that you pick your child up by 3:30.
At Millbridge we put an emphasis on student safety. Therefore, all students will be placed on the bus or in Prime Time automatically, unless we receive prior written notification from a parent or legal guardian. If you would like to pick your child up from school, please send in a note with your child or email the office at MBoffice@delranschools.org before 10:00 AM. Please do not send emails or dojo messages to your child's teacher with a change for the same day as they may not have the opportunity to check their email or messages before dismissal. We thank you in advance for your cooperation.
