Dear Cresskill Families,
I am formally kicking off my virtual coffees for the upcoming school year, a way that I use to remain accessible to parents. This is an informal time to learn about our schools and get to know about the initiatives we are undertaking.
Our first coffee is tomorrow evening from 7-8 PM, where I will be introducing our new elementary principal, Ms. Peguero, and discussing some of the elementary goals for the upcoming school year. All elementary parents are welcome to attend. Below are the links.
Also, please mark your calendar for August 29th, when I will be hosting my next coffee to discuss 2023-2024 School District Goals for the year.
Happy Summer,
Dr. Hughes, Your Superintendent of Schools

Dear Cresskill Community,
We moved tomorrow's "Popsicles with the Principal" meet and greet to 4 PM since we received requests that worked better after camps. We hope that his change benefits you.

Additionally, I will be hosting a superintendent virtual coffee tomorrow evening to introduce Ms. Peguero as well as discuss some of the exciting changes for the new year. All are welcome to attend. Below is information and the link to attend.

With current air condition being bad outside, I have received some questions about the safety of classroom air when air conditioners are off. Here I explain to some of my fourth graders how univents work to ensure students stay safe. https://youtu.be/-vrk65F8vr4

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.
