Dear Shamong Township Community,
As we prepare for the December 2025 Referendum, I want to take a moment to express the importance of your support. As vested members of the community, you play a critical role in maintaining and enhancing our school's infrastructure and safety measures. Investing in these areas today ensures a secure and conducive learning environment for our students tomorrow. From building repairs and technological upgrades to safety protocols and emergency preparedness, your involvement is critical when it comes to creating a safe and thriving school community. Together, we can make a significant impact on the well-being and success of our students.
Additional information and involvement opportunities to follow.
I can't thank you enough for your continued support and dedication.

Attendance
We appreciate everyone’s efforts to avoid taking extra time off when school is in session. As long as your child is healthy, please encourage showing up to class when school is in session. Every day of school is an important opportunity for students to develop personally, socially and academically.
We thank ...
● Our students and their families who do their best to show up daily even when it isn’t easy.
● Our teachers who go above and beyond to make school a welcoming and safe place for all students to learn.
● Our administrators who help us work together to ensure we create a physically and emotionally safe and engaging learning environment.
● Our many, many healers and helpers - the support staff and community volunteers who provide the extra helping hands.
May these days off be restful and relaxing. We look forward to seeing everyone again when school resumes on Thursday, January 2, 2025.
Thank you for partnering with us!
Mrs. Fermin-Cannon
