EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP SCHOOL DISTRICT

Dear Egg Harbor Township School Community,

As we enter November, a season filled with gratitude and reflection, I’d like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to each of you—students, families, staff, and community members—for all you do to make Egg Harbor Township a supportive, thriving place for our students.

This month, we also reaffirm our commitment to ensuring a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment across our schools. As a district, we are dedicated to a zero-tolerance stance on bullying, with a focus on creating spaces where every student feels valued and respected. Through our SOAR (Safe, Open-minded, Accountable, and Respectful) program, we teach and encourage behaviors that support a positive school culture. We’re proud of the way our students and staff embody these principles every day, building a welcoming environment where everyone can thrive.

This November, let’s all take a moment to recognize the impact of kindness, celebrate the strength in community, and continue to work together to make EHT schools a place of safety, acceptance, and gratitude. #EHTPride

With Gratitude,

Dr. Kim Gruccio

Superintendent of Schools

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.

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.

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.

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.
