Sussex SHARK Tales
Principal's Corner
A Great First Week!
Our faculty and students did a fantastic job of being flexible as we navigated the heat. We look forward to a great first full week of school and are excited about the temperature change!
We Are The SHARKS
Did you know the shark is more than just our mascot or a part of our logo? SHARK is an acronym of our commitment to creating and sustaining a Safe, Healthy, Accepting, Responsible, and Kind environment for all our students.
By embracing these values, we foster a sense of belonging and unity within our school, ensuring every student feels cherished, empowered, and ready to thrive.
Throughout the school year, we will explore these principles and understand how they collectively contribute to the growth of our students, preparing them not only for academic excellence but also for life's challenges and opportunities.
THE MORRIS EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION ASKS: WILL YOU COMMIT TO 180?
Imagine the Possibilities if we surrounded each of our 5,700 students with a $180 dollar pledge. Just $1 a day for every day of the school year for every student.
As 5,700 Morris School District students and nearly 1,000 teachers and staff walk back into our schools this September, the Morris Educational Foundation (MEF) is reaching out to our greater District family with a personal request… will you Commit to 180?
Your “Commit to $180” per child pledge would go a long way in supporting the MEF’s work in our schools for the 2023-2024 school year.

LA FUNDACIÓN EDUCATIVA MORRIS PREGUNTA: ¿TE COMPROMETERÁS CON 180?
