District Update

Dear Collingswood & Oaklyn Families,

We are happy to be back at school. In this newsletter you will find helpful information for the new school year. As always, please contact the building leader with any specific questions you may have.

Sincerely,

Dr. Fred McDowell, Superintendent

We are pleased to announce that soon, students in grades 3-5 will be able to ride a bike or scooter to school. We've amended our policy to allow for this, and know many students may be eager to begin. With this excitement comes the need for safety precautions to be taken. Bike safety assemblies will be held at each elementary school, and bike racks are being installed. We will notify families when we are ready to start this new initiative. Please contact Mr. Jefferson at mjefferson@collsk12.org if you have any questions in the meantime.
