Do you have kids that are having a hard time disconnecting from their phones? Is it impacting their social life or family life, preventing them from connecting with others? The CMS/CHS Home and School Association is hosting a special speaker series tomorrow night to help address these concerns, and all parents are welcome. While this will target grade 4-12 families, all are welcome.

Please see the attached promotion for the Cresskill Garage Sale, benefiting the town library. A great way to benefit local readers while also cleaning out your garage!
Busy night in Cresskill! It is the MMS Talent Show starting now, the EHB Basketball game between the teachers and fifth graders starting at 7, and we even have a high school student receiving the Unsung Hero Award from New Jersey School Boards Association! All good things!
Spirit Week is in full swing. The kids had a great time with "anything but a backpack". Mr. Timochko had a blast hallway surfing, and our new media center is hosting teacher workshops for the entire district. I love seeing the energy at the school as we build back better!
In Cresskill Schools, it is our goal to remain responsive to the unique needs of all of our students. This week begins the holy month of Ramadan, and Cresskill community is helping to observe this month by holding a crescent lantern event at the library this evening. The invite is attached and all are welcome. Additionally, it is important to be responsive to the needs of our students that observe this month. Ramadan sometimes includes fasting of not only food but also water. We encourage parents and students that are observing the month to reach out and partner with us in ensuring a fruitful observance. Sometimes minor adjustments can have a major positive impact for our students. We look forward to helping.
We had an exciting week as the furniture for our 6-12 media center was delivered. It will open this week to students! Cresskill Middle/High School is now restored! @CresskillMSHS @CresskillBOE
James Preller had a warm welcome as Merritt Memorial School's guest author. It was amazing to see the joy at having the author visits return to the building! Thank you to the HSA for sponsoring the event!
Through the rain, sleet, cold, and winter, our crossing guards, custodians, and police are ever-present. We are so appreciative of their work keeping our Cresskill students safe, especially on days like today!

Every day, CMS/CHS is seeing progress as we "Build Back Better"! We just received one of our largest furniture orders to date, and our auditorium is on schedule to reopen with new audio equipment being installed.
The progress on the auditorium at CMS/CHS has been outstanding! In only one day, the seats should be installed. Our music and theater programs are rejoicing!
We anticipate our media center and auditorium opening for student use within a month. While some items are impacted by the supply chain, we are getting key deliveries of furniture now. @JohnMassaro1 @CresskillMSHS
