**HIGH PERFORMING** 

OUR DISTRICT DESIGNATED "HIGH PERFORMING SCHOOL DISTRICT" Beginning with this school year one third of all the districts in the state were reviewed by the State Department of Education under a new monitoring system called The New Jersey Quality Single Accountability Continuum.  Under this system a district is evaluated in five areas of school district effectiveness: instruction and program, personnel, fiscal management, operations and governance.This past fall a district team met to complete a self-assessment document for each of the five areas.  After these were completed, a team from the Executive County Superintendent's Office made a site visit to the district to verify the findings of our district team.  The County Office personnel sent their set of review documents to the Commissioner of Education for her review and final determination. On April 24th we received a letter from Commissioner Davy stating the following, "It is therefore my pleasure to designate your district as a "High Performing School District".   This is the highest designation a district can receive under this review process. As this is a comprehensive review of all the major function of the district we are rightfully proud of our Board of Education, administration, teachers and staff  who contribute on a daily basis to make us the fine school district that we are.
