Milltown School District Milltown, NJ
Happy Summer!!!
Dear Staff, Students, & Families,
Here is our June newsletter.
As part of our positive school climate and culture programs, one of the foundational elements that embodies our school environment is the characteristic of respect. Our students are taught that respect is extended in many ways, including a respect for diversity. It is our goal to instill that a variety in culture is meant to be cherished and appreciated, not judged and feared, to ultimately foster a wider appreciation of our human differences. In order to address the current national events occurring in relation to diversity, we have compiled a collection of age appropriate resources to help you address the topic of racism with your child.
As always, feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns. Be well.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Kim Murray, School Counselor
Mrs. Samantha Nachman, School Social Worker
Dr. Tess Brown, School Psychologist
Ms. Kristen Cilfone, School Psychologist
