72 Wolfe Rd, Budd Lake, NJ 07828

After a year-and-a-half of home-schooling, in a hotel room, our son took to kindergarten like a bee to nectar, hah; the school is sunny, clean, safe, and well-organized; his teacher is a bright, happy, healthy, knowledgeable woman who manages to balance all of the rigorous requirements of a grade school teacher with a true love for children and for teaching and learning; our son is happy, loves school and is learning voraciously, "he's a sponge," to quote his teacher at our last parent-teacher meeting. Truly, what more could one ask? Well . . . heh, the mores are a little parochial, as Niche puts it: "Budd Lake [] residents tend to lean conservative," which cramps multi-cultural, global citizens, and, ah, the lunch menu reads like a bar menu, but hey, they probably wouldn't move too many frog's legs, chicken feet, or pigs' skin jellies even if they tried. Perhaps because of the pandemic, and recent upsurge of school attacks, the school seems a little hermetically sealed to outside influence, and a pretzel sale and Halloween parade don't really open the place up to outside-parental input, but most conservative-leaning parents probably like it that way and that, my dears is called democracy.
