RE: NJ ASK 7/8
       April 27, 2010 through April 30, 2010
 
Dear Parents:
 
The New Jersey Assessment of Skills and Knowledge will be administered to all Middle School students on Tuesday, April 27, 2010 through and including Friday, April 30, 2010. An information guide for you and your child will soon be issued to your child in school for review and use. Included will be information about the testing process, sample questions, and preparation strategies. Please refer to the full text of the information guide for further information by clicking here.
 
We will be altering the time schedule for the testing days to provide uninterrupted testing time. To support your child’s efforts, please consider the following:
 
1. Ensure that your child has a good breakfast each testing day.
2. Ensure that he/she gets a good night’s rest.
3. Review the booklet and sample questions with your child to ease any anxieties.
 
Other than reviewing the content of the information guide, there truly is no way for our students “to study” for the test which is a compilation of years of preparation. We are hopeful that all will do well.
 
On another note, teachers will soon be administering brief assessments to students in our Mathematics and Language Arts classes to provide data to help us improve and validate the coherence of our instructional program.
 
The results from these assessments will not count as a grade but rather will be considered in programmatic decisions as well as being used as one indicator for identifying students who may require targeted support in Mathematics or Language Arts next year. In this regard, our counselors will be communicating with you in the weeks ahead should this need arise.
 
Thank you for your support.
 
Sincerely,
 
 
Eric C. Barnett
Principal

A Mid-Summer Greeting from New High School Principal Mr. Craig Wigley

Before summer ends I wanted to introduce myself to our Northern families and provide you with a short biography and some of the attributes I will bring to the Northern Burlington Regional High School.

It is a pleasure to have been appointed the High School Principal here at Northern. In June, I spent 5 days observing the high school while in session before beginning my duties at Northern on July 1, 2010. The students and staff were impressive, informative and welcoming. This met every expectation I had of the outstanding school community that exists at Northern Burlington and especially in the high school.

Here is a quick picture of who I am and where I came from. I grew up one of six boys in my family. I am the 4th son and can be described as the typical middle child. I grew up in Hainesport, NJ. I attended Hainesport School, Rancocas Valley Regional High School, Trenton State College, and finally Rider University. I am married to my wife Melissa going on 20 years and have 3 sons.

Throughout my 22 years in education and leading to this point in my career, I have worked hard to develop the reputation as a team player and a positive contributor to my colleagues, school community and school district. I have been a leader as a teacher in the classroom, coach on the fields, and school administrator for the past six years. I lead by example and take pride in the results of hard work that benefits the school. You will find me to be involved in student life, approachable, and a good listener. I will be honest in my feedback to you, your son or daughter and the high school staff. I assure you I will always have our students’ needs as my focus for continuing a tradition of excellence that permeates the school district.
Please enjoy the remainder of the summer. Be safe and we will see everyone back in September.
