St. Michael the Archangel Regional School Will Remain Closed Until Monday, April 20, 2020
Governor Murphy’s Executive Order calls for all schools to remain closed until further notice. The Diocese of Camden has stated that schools will remain closed until at least Monday, April 20, 2020. Easter Break will remain on the calendar.
Every effort will be made to reschedule events previously scheduled for this time period for later in the school year.
Students and families are encouraged to follow the directives from the New Jersey Department of Health and Human Services as we continue to work together for the common good, to slow the spread of the COVID-19 virus and prevent further infection.
Bishop Sullivan is aware that the continued closure of our schools places an enormous burden on parents and will be challenging for families. He is proud of the tireless efforts and creative work of principals and faculty to continue to educate their students and grateful to the parents for their ongoing partnership in supporting their children’s learning in new ways. He is also very impressed by the resilience and dedication of the students to their studies.
Please continue your prayers for the health of our students, their families, our dedicated teachers, administrators and staff members, and for all people as together we face the deepening effects of this worldwide pandemic.
God Bless,
Mr. Philip J. Gianfortune, Principal
