Superintendent's Update
Dear Egg Harbor Township School Community,
As we step into April, we welcome the beauty of spring and the many opportunities for growth, learning, and celebration that this month brings. The changing season reminds us of renewal and progress, and I am excited for all that lies ahead for our students, staff, and families.
April is a time of continued academic achievement, creativity, and community engagement. We recognize Autism Acceptance Month, highlighting the importance of inclusivity and understanding. We also celebrate Earth Day, encouraging our students to appreciate and take care of our environment. Additionally, as we move closer to the end of the school year, we remain committed to providing enriching experiences that inspire our students to finish strong.
I want to take a moment to thank our teachers, staff, families, and students for your dedication, enthusiasm, and support. Your hard work and commitment to our district’s mission of embrace, engage, and educate continue to make a difference every day.
Please consider joining us for our second Strategic Planning Meeting on April 30th at 6pm in the High School Cafeteria!
Let’s make this month one of growth, positivity, and success!
Sincerely,
Dr. Kim Gruccio
Superintendent

District Mission and Goals
Mission Statement- Embrace - Engage - Educate
Our mission in the Egg Harbor Township School District is to embrace families and their
students to provide a safe, rigorous, and relevant learning experience while students are engaged and educated to become responsible for their own learning.
Student Achievement
In order to prepare students for the future that awaits them, teaching practices will incorporate new technologies and innovation to support student learning to prepare students for the future that awaits them. Professional Learning Community work will encompass the Teaching and Assessing Cycle. This data will assist in meeting individual student needs using the Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) framework. We will also focus on the social and emotional needs of every student to foster successful learning experiences.
Culture, Climate and EHT Pride
S.O.A.R. (SAFETY, OWNERSHIP, ACCOUNTABILITY, RESPECT) will be used as the foundation to ensure a safe learning environment for all. SOAR provides students with self-regulation skills, life skills, and character skills that will assist them with student achievement, work ethic, good character, and a respect for diversity. We will celebrate progress through recognition and reward to reinforce student expectations for a positive school climate, culture, and #EHTPride.
Expand Stakeholder Partnerships
Continue to form positive, supportive, and sustained partnerships with community partners to complement and enhance student learning, activities, and athletics at all grade levels. The effectiveness of these partnerships will depend on the quality of collaboration, the alignment of goals, and the level of commitment from all involved parties. These stakeholders include students, parents, teachers, support staff, school administrators, the Board of Education, community organizations, businesses, and government agencies.
