North Bergen School District Home

Breast Cancer Awareness Month (BCAM), also referred to in America as National Breast Cancer Awareness Month (NBCAM), is an annual international health campaign organized by major breast cancer charities every October to increase awareness of the disease and to raise funds for research into its cause, prevention, diagnosis, treatment and cure. The campaign also offers information and support to those affected by breast cancer.  Breast cancer awareness month is a yearly campaign that intends to educate people about the importance of early screening, test and more. This campaign starts on October 1st and ends on October 31st every year.

We are having activities throughout the school district to celebrate survivors of Breast Cancer and raise awareness to this condition.  Please view the website and school calendars for specific events.

I hope everyone participated in the recent Back to School nights at each of our schools.  Teachers informed parents the procedures, rules, objectives, and contact information.  All of our teachers use Google classroom to highlight what is going on with instruction.  I want all parents to understand how to have communication with their child’s teacher.  I feel it is important that we work together to make sure each child works toward success.

I met with parents during a breakfast Meet and Greet with the Superintendent last week.  I will be doing Meet and Greet evening sessions at all of the schools in the coming weeks.  Please look for announcements on the school website, Realtime Parent Portal, and automated calls.  I am looking forward to talking about my vision for learning, annual educational goals, and long term future for the school district.

I am looking forward to a successful school year.
