Governor Murphy announces school closures through the remainder of this school year. "This is a difficult decision and I know that many students, parents, and staff would like to be able to return to school," Murphy said in a press release. "However, I have been unwavering on the message that we need to make decisions based on science, not emotion. And while New Jersey is making great strides in mitigating the spread of COVID-19, science tells us that at this point, we can't safely re-open our schools."
Happy National Decision Day! Traditionally, May 1st is National Decision Day - a day for students to celebrate where they have decided to continue their education or career path after high school. We know that some colleges have extended their decision dates, so we plan to celebrate our students throughout the whole month of May this year!
