North Bergen School District Home

I would like to tell you about some things that are going on this summer.

First, I want to extend my heartfelt wishes to all our students and families for a truly wonderful summer recess. This year has been filled with incredible growth, learning, and memorable moments, thanks to the hard work of our dedicated students, teachers, and staff, and your unwavering support. I hope this summer provides a much-needed opportunity for everyone to rest, relax, and recharge. Whether you're enjoying local activities, traveling, or simply spending quality time together, I encourage you to embrace these precious weeks. 

Second, as we move through the summer months, I want to remind everyone that our summer school program is currently in full swing. This vital program is designed to help students address any remedial gaps in their understanding of the curriculum, ensuring they are well-prepared for the upcoming school year. We strongly emphasize the importance of consistent work and attendance during this period. Regular participation and diligent effort are crucial for your child to benefit fully from the instruction and support offered. We are committed to providing the best possible educational experience for all our students, and your partnership in encouraging their engagement in summer school is greatly appreciated.

Third, we're excited to announce a new, more efficient way for you to receive your child's report card! Beginning with the next marking period, all report cards will be sent directly to the email address we have on file for you. This new digital delivery method will provide faster access to your child's academic progress and is part of our ongoing commitment to improve communication and streamline processes. To ensure you receive these important updates without interruption, please take a moment to verify that your contact information, especially your email address, is current in our system. You can do this by logging into your Realtime Parent Portal account or by contacting your child's school directly. Thank you for your continued partnership in your child's education.

Fourth, to better serve our families, the North Bergen School District is pleased to announce the addition of Right At School to provide high-quality aftercare services for students attending Franklin School, McKinley School, and Kennedy School. Right At School offers a robust program designed to provide a safe, engaging, and enriching environment for your children after school hours. All parents for all schools can find detailed information regarding program specifics, including schedules and activities, along with registration instructions, directly on the North Bergen School District website. We encourage all interested parents to visit the website soon to learn more and complete the registration process.
