As we turn the page toward the new year, I want to take a moment to reflect on the exciting and enriching journey of our scholars and schools this fall. Our administrators and teachers have worked tirelessly to bring innovative educational opportunities to life—from classrooms and field trips filled with curiosity to creative arts showcases and celebrations that highlight the incredible spirit of our school community.
Greetings, South Amboy Families! We are excited to embark upon a
new school year that is bound to be filled with amazing experiences
for our scholars, families, faculty and staff! As we prepare for the
2024-2025 academic year, I’d like to introduce new members of our
team and reacquaint you with some familiar faces, some of whom
have transitioned into new roles. It is important that everyone is not
only aware of who is part of our phenomenal Instructional Leadership
and Support Teams, but that you are also aware of some of the many
roles that each have within the district.
As per South Amboy Board of Education Policy 5111, the district reserves the right to verify the residency of students to ensure that our records are up to date. We recognize that for some of our students we may not have the latest set of documents to confirm residency in South Amboy. As a result, we are going to require all families to submit at least two of the documents on the back of this letter to ensure that our records are up to date in Genesis and your son/daughter(s) Cumulative File(s).

The strategic plan development process began on January 30, 2024.
During the month of February, meetings were scheduled with various groups of teachers, admins, board members, parents, PTO and students. The group was divided into four committees each working on one of the identified focus areas. Over the next meetings, the steering committees developed goals, action steps, and timelines for the implementation of the plan. An overview of the strategic planning process was provided, along with a list of all of the Vision and Mission Statement submissions received. Groups individually selected their top statements, discussed in small groups, and subsequently identified the group’s top choices.
The administrative team met to review all of the vision and mission statement tallies from the stakeholder meetings. The administrative team discussed the top choices at length, made a few revisions, and composed the final vision and mission statements. In addition, the team analyzed the data received from the Faculty, Parent, and Student Climate and Culture surveys to determine the focus areas for the strategic planning process. Finally, belief statements were created to support the focus areas for the strategic plan.
