That request sought consultant services for a feasibility study to terminate the sending-receiving relationship with the Monroe Board of Education for students in grades 9-12 who reside in Jamesburg. The submission deadline for proposals was June 23, 2011. Subsequent to that date the Jamesburg Board awarded a contract to Consulting Services Associates (CSA) to complete the study. CSA is an LLC consisting of retired superintendents of schools and other senior administrators who possess ample experience in matters relating to the governance and operation of public school districts. In the proposal CSA indicated that the following principal partners, all former superintendents, would work on this contract: • Len Elovitz • Bob Gordon • Mel Klein Also contributing to the overall effort would be CSA associate Richard Rosenberg, former New Jersey Assistant Commissioner for Finance and Deputy Commissioner of Education.

  • Northwest Jersey Athletic Conference
    NORTHWEST JERSEY ATHLETIC CONFERENCE SCHOOL DIRECTORY 2013-14 http://www.nwjerseyac.com Sportsmanship is our Priority 1 ABOUT THE NORTHWEST JERSEY ATHLETIC CONFERENCE The Northwest Jersey Athletic Conference was formed during the 2008-09 school year, as a result of the realignment of the conferences in Northern and Central New Jersey by the New Jersey State Interscholastic Association (NJSIAA). The NJAC consists of schools in all of Morris and Sussex Counties. All the schools in Sussex County were part of the Sussex County Interscholastic League (SCIL). The schools in Morris County were part of three conferences, depending on enrollments: • Colonial Hills Conference (CHC) • Iron Hills Conference (IHC) • Northern Hills Conference (NHC) The schools were realigned under a plan by the NJSIAA to save costs on transportation and to restore the rivalries between various schools in the area. It gives a chance for neighboring schools to play each other. The NJSIAA had spent a year researching the details and learned that many conferences had schools in three or four counties. For example, the Northern Hills Conference had schools in Morris, Essex, and Passaic Counties. In December 2008, Hackettstown, not wanting to travel long distances and make sure that student athletes do not lose time in class, decided to leave the Skyland Conference, which consists of schools in Hunterdon, Warren, and Somerset Counties, and join the NJAC, so that they could play schools that are closer to the Warren County high school. During the 2010-11 school year, North Warren Regional also cited that they did not want to travel long distances and decided to leave the Skyland Conference to join the NJAC during the 2012-13 school year.

    A joint publication from The Morris School District and The Morris Educational Foundation FALL 2018 FIND OUT WHAT’S HAPPENING IN... DTHE istrict FMS Success Wows NJ Department of Ed In early 2018, Superintendent Mackey Pendergrast received a phone call from the NJ Department of Education: newly appointed Education Commissioner Dr. Lamont Repollet had learned of the tremendous growth in student achievement at Frelinghuysen Middle School over the past several years and wanted to see for himself what lay behind this recent success story. Recalls Pendergrast, “I was surprised by the Commissioner’s request for a visit—not by the request itself, of course, but by how quickly news of the middle school’s exceptional progress had reached the highest levels of the State. I’m really proud of our dedicated teachers and administrators, who have worked so hard to propel FMS forward, especially in reading, writing, and math.” Comparative data from the State’s PARCC assessment shows how substantially our middle schoolers are ascending, outpacing the NJ average in every grade level. Mr. Pendergrast said that what first caught the Commissioner’s eye was the fact that this marked growth has occurred consistently across all demographic groups at Frelinghuysen. more on page 3> Growing Great Innovators with Makey Makey Invention Kits We are always told, “Don’t play with your food!” But what if you could make a banana piano, a marshmallow drum-kit, or even a gummy bear keyboard?
