In Mrs. Nonnemacher’s first-grade class at Petway Elementary, students honed their math skills and teamwork. They formed teams, solved math problems, and strategized to capture the flag. Each flag had a number on the back. After solving all the problems, the class tallied points, practicing counting by 5s and 10s. The students enjoyed showcasing their math pride and cooperative spirit!

Dear Staff, Students, and Families, We hope this message finds you well. As we begin to wrap up the 2023-24 school year and prepare for the next, we want to inform you about some important changes to our daily school schedule. These adjustments are aimed at improving our transportation services and ensuring a smoother start and end to the school day for everyone. What’s Changing? - High School: Start time will be 5 minutes earlier (7:28 a.m.) - Middle School: Start time will be 5 minutes earlier (8:10 a.m.) - Elementary School: Start time will be 10 minutes later (9:20 a.m.) - Cunningham School: No change to the start time - Preschool: Significant changes to the start time (8:10 a.m.) Why the Change? This past year, we faced numerous challenges with transportation, including delays in getting students to and from school. The high absentee rate and a shortage of substitute drivers further compounded these issues. By adjusting the start and end times, we aim to: - Improve route efficiencies, - Ensure timely arrivals and departures, - And enhance overall transportation services for the district. We are optimistic that these changes will lead to a more efficient and reliable transportation experience for all our students. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we implement these changes. Thank you for your continued support and commitment to our school community.

On Friday, May 31, Michele Geiger from Cross County Connection came in to give the RISE students a lesson on how to navigate the NJ Transit System in an effort to increase their independence and range as they begin to look for jobs in adulthood. Ms. Geiger discussed safety when using public transportation, as well as how to find the information that is needed to travel from one destination to another. On Wednesday, June 5th, Ms. Geiger and Ms. Latifah returned to take ten of our students, assisted by VPS staff, on a trip across town to the ShopRite on Delsea Drive, seeking job opportunities. Once they checked in at the supermarket, students ate their lunch at Chick-fil-A and returned back to school using the transit system. While on the trip, students learned important lessons about punctuality and flexibility, as not every bus will run on time, and in some cases, the bus may pass by, causing a change in plans. It was a very valuable lesson for our students!
