Ridgewood NJ, according to the NJ Department Of Education due to continued school closures, the New Jersey Department of Education (NJDOE) is cancelling all statewide student assessments for the spring 2020 testing window. This includes the springtime administration of the New Jersey Student Learning Assessments (NJSLA), ACCESS for ELLs, and the Dynamic Learning Maps (DLM) assessment. The NJDOE has been granted a waiver from the U.S. Department of Education (USDE) to forego federally mandated statewide testing, accountability, and reporting requirements for this school year. The NJDOE is working to address the impact of canceling assessments on other aspects of education, including educator evaluations and school and district accountability. The cancellation of statewide assessments will not prevent students from meeting their graduation assessment requirements.

Everybody is looking for a get-rich-quick scheme in this day and age. It isn’t really because people are greedy or anything like that, but rather because the financial systems around the world have become quite exhausting. Many people work for long hours every day, and they often have nothing to show for it, barely making ends meet. This is why some try investing in the different markets so they can make a profit with little investment and minimal effort.

Dear Ridgewood School Community,
This is a very dynamic and ever-changing situation, and as expected, the number of reported cases of COVID-19 continues to rise. While I have not received any “official notice,” I am comfortable saying that we will be closed the week of March 30-April 3. Spring break is the following week, and, as in the past, it will be homework free. This will allow families time to regroup, organize home schedules, and get recharged for the resumption of probable home instruction on April 13th. Based on the trajectory of reported cases, and most unfortunately, deaths, I presume our closure will continue for a while.
