Dear Piscataway Families:

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the Piscataway Schools Administration and Board of Education reviewed new information carefully before making decisions, keeping the safety and security of students and staff as our first priority. We continue this approach as we enter the 2021-2022 school year, following directives from our State and County officials, as well as guidance from the NJ Department of Health and the CDC.

You may be aware that Governor Murphy recently made some announcements regarding what schools will look like in the coming year. We found during the last school year, as more data became available, often these decisions were changed or revised. For this reason, while we move toward a full, in-person school year, we will wait until later in August before announcing our complete plans for 2021-2022. Our expectation is that all students will return to school full-time, five days a week. We want our families to feel confident that our schools are ready and their students will be in safe and welcoming learning environments.

2021-2022 Calendar
We have updated our 2021-2022 school calendar to include our Parent Conference Dates and all early dismissal dates due to Teacher In-Service. You can access the calendar here.

Summer Meal Distribution
Our summer meal distribution will continue on Wednesdays from 3:00 PM – 6:00 PM through the end of August. We will provide once-a-week (every Wednesday) meal distribution that includes breakfast, lunch, and snack for seven days at the following locations:

• Arbor Intermediate School, 1717 Lester Place (pick-up in the side parking lot)
• Schor Middle School, 243 North Randolphville Road
• Conackamack Middle School, 5205 Witherspoon Street
• Administration Building, 1515 Stelton Road

I hope you are enjoying your summer—reading great books, enjoying being outside, and sharing quality family time.

Sincerely,

Dr. Frank Ranelli
