Where Children Come First

Welcome Back

Posted Date: 8/28/25 (4:00 PM)

Dear Roselle Park Families, Students, and Staff,

As summer begins to wind down, I hope this message finds you rested, healthy, and ready for the exciting year ahead. It is with great joy and anticipation that I welcome you all to a brand-new school year!

The 2025–2026 school year officially begins for students on Thursday, September 4, with early dismissal on both September 4 and 5. We will then resume our regular schedule on Monday, September 8. These first few days are a great opportunity for students and staff to reconnect, settle in, and begin the year on a strong and positive note.

Please take a moment to check your email and stay in close communication with your child’s school and principal for details specific to each building, including start times, dismissal procedures, classroom assignments, and any special events or materials needed.

Whether you're returning or joining us for the first time, know that we are deeply committed to making this a safe, inclusive, and enriching school year for every student. Our educators and staff are working hard to ensure each child feels welcomed, challenged, and supported from day one.

Thank you for being an essential part of our school community. We’re looking forward to another wonderful year of learning, growth, and shared success.

Patricia Gois
Superintendent of Schools

Dear Roselle Park, Families, Students and Staff,

Apologies for the earlier error in my Welcome Back message. The first day of school for students is Thursday, September 4, not Wednesday.

Thank you for your understanding. Have a wonderful weekend and see you all soon!
Superintendent Ms. Gois
