Good morning!
In anticipation of this afternoon's Halloween parade, I wanted to offer you an update on the NB grounds. Please note that there will be limited parking in the parking lot, so your best chance at a prompt arrival would be to leave yourself plenty of time to walk or park on nearby streets. If you are arriving from the back path, you may have to navigate some construction vehicles and some muddy conditions when getting out to the field. If you have small children with you for the parade, please keep them close to you and away from the courtyard, as the playground construction is now at the point where the old fencing has been removed and temporary fencing will go up. We are so grateful that the construction of our inclusive playground has happened so quickly and that the weather has cooperated thus far.
Please review the details of the parade in this letter. The preschool parade starts at 1:15pm and the K-5 parade starts at 2:15pm. Students will NOT be dismissed between the parade and normal dismissal time, except for a few preschoolers who need to get to another school for a sibling's parade (which should have already been communicated to the teachers ahead of time).
Thank you for your patience and flexibility. I'm considering dressing up as a NB parking spot next year. You may or may not be able to find me!

Our staff had a great day of professional development and training with some of our neighboring districts today. Over 250 educators from Pequannock, Jefferson, Vernon, Wanaque and other districts had an in-service day to learn about best practices, tools, and lessons. This is a great way for our team to recharge and prepare to give our students the best we can!
DID YOU KNOW: In our new Genesis Parent Portal, you can mark your child's absence so you don't have to call in to the school. Click on the NOTIFY OFFICE button under either the Summary or Attendance tab. Enter if your child will be absent or early dismissal, the date, and a brief reason (you may also upload a doctor's note or other documentation here).
NOTE: You cannot use this feature after 8:30am that day.
NB Families,
We can't wait to welcome you to North Boulevard for Back-to-School Night tomorrow evening. Please see this letter for the session times. If you are looking for Mrs. Barcadepone (Reading Specialist) and Mrs. Vuolo (Math and Literacy Skills Program Teacher), they will be available to talk with you in the back of the Media Center during the first portion so that you can visit your child's teacher during the later portion.
Tomorrow there will also be a Dine to Donate at Sunset Grill, which will benefit the 3 elementary schools' HSAs and more information can be found here. On Friday, please remember that the NB HSA has their Fun Fair after school. See this poster for more details.
I hope to see you tomorrow evening!

Pequannock Schools Announcing Apptegy Rooms!
In an effort to unify our communication tools and to make it easier for both families and staff, the following will be our main classroom communication tools:
1) GMAIL - our pequannock.org accounts are still the best and easiest way to contact us
2) GOOGLE CLASSROOM - many of our staff will continue to use Google Classroom as our Learning Management System (LMS)
3) ROOMS - our latest communication tool is built right into our new Pequannock Township Schools app making our app a one-stop-shop for all district and school news
We are rolling out Rooms slowly but we wanted to make everyone aware of the new tool. Our sports and activities are already using Rooms and a few teachers are jumping in right away. However, please give our staff time to acclimate themselves to our tools so they can choose the best way to share information with our families.
Here are some links to help you get started:
STEP ONE: Download our new Pequannock Township Schools app
STEP TWO: Connect to Rooms either via an email invite going out later today on 9/4/26 or sign up via our app
(warning - you must use an email or phone number that we have associated with you and your student)
FOR FAQ's or other HELP, CLICK HERE
Mr. Shea's Pro Tip: when you download the app, be sure to select which schools you want to follow (screenshot here).
Thank you for your support - we hope your children are as excited as we are to be back to school!
Best Regards,
Matt Shea, Chief Technology Officer at Pequannock Township School District

Dear NB Families:
We are excited to welcome our students back on Wednesday and are looking forward to an outstanding school year together. I need to let you know, however, about a concern in our parking lot that will provide some disruption to our regular traffic flow.
Due to an excavation pit created after complications from an aging seepage drain, we need to temporarily close 12 parking spots in the front lot. We have ordered a replacement drain, but it will not be available until early next week, which means that installation and paving will likely not be finished until late Wednesday, weather permitting.
We will still use our original plans for line-up and drop-off on Wednesday, but will need to adapt to a tighter lot. Our security team will work with our friends in the police department to ensure that traffic in and around the school will be managed as efficiently and safely as possible, and ask for our school community to be patient as we navigate our first obstacle of the school year.
I will reach out with any further updates, if needed, and look forward to seeing everyone on Wednesday.
Sincerely,
Elissa Scillieri, Ed.D.
NB Principal

Our NB students got to visit Pequannock seniors at Cedar Crest in May. Our students were excellent ambassadors!
On April 1st, Mr. Shea from the IT Department visited the students at North Boulevard to talk about his experience fostering cats. Students learned about kitten biology and got to pet and play with 8-week old kittens, Max & Flynn.
