This is a great school. Don't listen to the 2/10 equity ranking or whatever. It's only like that because all the nearby schools are 100% white. If you look we are actually above average for New Jersey. We are always ranked number 1 in the county for math, science, etc. In fact, we often beat out the private schools nearby in these categories as well. The only subject we aren't the best at is Football.

The school has broken as a system of instruction during which pandemic, double talking about how we are all a team and then sending confusing mandatory instructions that they retract (after parental outrage?). Instruction currently consists of 4 hours per day of Google Meets involving checked out teachers who play videos and often are mot even there. A couple of teachers still teach, all the rest have kids locked to a computer screen in a kind of madness. Some teachers just don’t even show up for months at a time, just get someone else to start the video. We have begged for alternatives for our kids, only to be told that Google Meets are terrific (nope). Then we heard that the school board had approved all kinds of programs that apparently are not available to our kids even though we begged fir alternatives. Don’t consider this school any kind of learning.

Fantastic school, my daughter thoroughly enjoyed school everyday. The principal Ms Lisa Fischman and Nila's 1st grade teacher Ms Erin Lipari were both awesome. They made Nila feel welcome and helped her settle in seamlessly even though she was there only for the last 3 weeks of term.
