Principal’s Message

Our students completed two days of NJSLA testing this week, Reading and Writing.  The last day of testing will be on Wednesday, the 13th for math.  Please be sure your student has a good night's sleep and breakfast as well as a charged chromebook. 

Reminder that our Visual Voices Art Show, featuring the work of our creative students, is May 12th from 5:30-7pm.  Looking forward to seeing you and celebrating an evening of art with our amazing art teacher, Mrs. Ruger.  

Thank you to our PTO for celebrating our incredible educators this month for Teacher Appreciation!  Please make sure to view their newsletter with all the details on what they have planned. Here is a link to their website.

I am very excited to share that our incoming 4th-grade parent orientation is scheduled for June 3rd from 6-7. We look forward to introducing our 4th-grade families to all things Stony Brook. 

Thank you to Mrs. Eosso, as Nurses’ Day was celebrated this week. We appreciate all she does for our school community and support all of our health-related needs. 

We will have the last District Homework Free Night on Wednesday, May 27th.  See the flyer below for details and ideas on how to spend the evening.

I wish all of our families a very Happy Mother’s Day this weekend. Please enjoy being celebrated, and as you celebrate those special individuals in your life. 

Have a wonderful weekend!

Daily Snack(s) We need your help with packing daily snacks. We have emergency snacks in the office for when a student occasionally forgets their snack, but we are quickly running out of those emergency snacks at this time. Please be sure to pack a snack or two for your student each day that they can enjoy during snack time. Thank you.

Parent Drop Off and Pick Up I need your help! Once you have dropped your student off, please exit the line so that we can keep all cars moving and get our students in the school as efficiently as possible. Once the buses have exited the front parking lot, cars can pull into the front lot, but must park parallel along the sidewalk. Please DO NOT pull up facing the building. Cars can pull up toward the front entrance, let their student exit on the sidewalk, and then pull forward and out. We have seen far too many close calls with potential accidents recently. Thank you very much for your assistance.  

A friendly reminder, the free/reduced lunch application must be re-submitted each year and does not automatically renew. A copy of the application can be found on our district website at: https://www.branchburg.k12.nj.us/student-lunch-forms
