Superintendent Radulic's May 29, 2020 Video Message & Letter
Hello, Roxbury Families,
As this school year comes to a close and we plan for our traditional celebrations, it is also important to celebrate the success of our family-partners in demonstrating resilience, tenacity, an understanding of the importance of traditions, and partnerships. Together, we continue the vision of "preparing the children of today for tomorrow" and, for that, I am truly grateful. With the daily, ongoing advancements of technology, we, in education, have often been reminded that we are preparing today's students for jobs that don't even exist yet. Likewise, this pandemic has taught us that we are preparing them for a world we never imagined would exist, but we are doing it - all of us, together.
In education, we live with the future in mind, whether it's planning lessons or events. We are continually looking past the horizon. While our building principals and staff are preparing for the upcoming weeks including a memorable graduation ceremony, at the district level, we have already organized our summer experiences and are looking at opening the next school year. While we await direction from the Department of Education, Health Officials, and the Governor, we continue to keep the horizon in mind and have begun designing multiple scenarios for the 2020-2021 school year opening that include a virtual, in-person and hybrid experience.
If we should open virtually, we are discussing ways to provide parent/student orientations. In addition, we are working to enhance virtual learning by streamlining apps and platforms, creating a more robust virtual curriculum design through the identification of focus and complementary standards, emphasizing wellness, increasing synchronous learning opportunities, and creating schedules that more closely align to a "typical" school day. These enhancements will support all of the scenarios we are working to develop.
Unfortunately, there is little evidence to indicate that we will return immediately to traditional in-person learning. Rather, our in-person learning may occur through "A" and "B" groupings, modified day on-site instruction with one full day virtual day at the end of the week to provide time for the deep cleaning of buildings as well as consolidation of learning. Along with physical changes to classrooms, such as limited seating and dividers, instruction would be delivered to a class composed of both virtual and in-person students. In-person students would experience a number of changes, such as increased hygiene expectations with more frequent hand washing, hand sanitizing, and wearing masks. Temperature checks would occur before entering buses and schools. Social distancing would be practiced in classrooms and on buses as well as a decrease in mobility around the school building to limit potential population exposure. This, of course, is not the exhaustive list of considerations. There are so many more.
We will deliberate, research, run simulations, provide necessary training, analyze, evaluate and adjust. We can design a variety of plans, but ultimately will do what it takes to make it work so that your children engage in meaningful learning. We can provide opportunities for in-person and virtual experiences. We can redesign our classrooms and create sanitizing stations.
I have complete faith that we can make it work. What I don't have is a deeper understanding of where you are in your thoughts, fears, and hopes. Therefore, please take this brief survey to help me understand what else we need to consider as we move forward towards the new horizon. The survey is available HERE and will be open until Friday, June 5th.
I look forward to your responses and wish you all the best in this uncertain and unique time in history. We are Roxbury strong and as Johnny Depp said in Pirates of the Carribean... "Bring me the horizon!"
Wishing you good health,
Loretta L. Radulic Superintendent of Schools

RHS Rox-Thon is Tonight!
We're excited to share that Rox-THON 2020 is finally here, albeit a virtual event! It's tonight, Friday, May 29th starting at 7 p.m.
We have a great evening planned that will span from 7 to about 9 p.m. We'll share a bit more about why our cause is so important, its impact, and offer several live interactive games where you can win gift cards to local food businesses in town.
You don't want to miss a minute, because we're going to feature Mrs. Wilkerson doing the ice bucket challenge, Mrs. Kaine doing an awesome Tik Tok dance, and Mr. Baldino giving himself a custom haircut (they're all amazing). In addition, we will be continuing the tradition and revealing who the Gael Mascot is, as they're a senior.
The event will feature a few speakers, music, and interactive games where you can win prizes. You do not need to fundraise to participate in the event, although donations are still being accepted.
Finally, while you're not required to fundraise for the event, for every donation of $10 or more that is made today, you (the recipient) and the donor will be entered into a drawing to possibly win 1 of 10 gift cards as a thank you. We look forward to seeing all of you there.

Bringing Smiles is Goal of 'Adopt a Roxbury High School Senior' Group
 The organizers of the "Adopt a Senior 2020" Facebook group hope the effort will "bring a smile" to the faces of Roxbury High School seniors whose graduation ceremonies have been waylaid by the coronavirus.
The
Facebook group, administered by Elaine Weinacker and Dana Guberman Taggart, provides a way for people to "adopt" a senior and then "do whatever they think is appropriate to put a smile on their face," Taggart said. "It could be a small card, a gift card, a gift basket or whatever the adoptee likes."
There are about 300 graduating seniors and about a third have been "adopted," Taggart said. "The community has been great," she said. "Seniors who have been posted are being picked-up quickly. We are so grateful to the tremendous response to this opportunity to put a smile on a senior's face."
She noted that the effort is not sponsored by the school district. Click here to read more from TAPinto Roxbury.

Roxbury High Schoolers Plan Virtual Book Readings for Kids
 Some members of the Roxbury High School Interact Club will soon be offering virtual story-telling sessions during which they will read books to children.
The online video sessions, to take place via Google Meet, will occur at 1 p.m. on May 22, May 29 and June 5, all Fridays. "If they go well, we might do it through the end of June," Interact Club President Camille Guglielmo said.
Guglielmo said she will be one of the Interact Club members reading books to youngsters. She said club members thought the reading sessions might help both kids and parents.
"We know a lot of parents are struggling to keep kids occupied," Guglielmo said.
The first book on the agenda is Pete the Cat: Firefighter Pete, by James Dean, which will be read by Caitlin Caccavella, Guglielmo said. The plan is to not only read the books but discuss them briefly.
The readings will be open to all elementary school kids and there will be no limit on the number of people who can tune-in. Click here to read more from TAPinto Roxbury.
 There is some excitement to share and we are thankful that our students created an Instagram page to highlight what our seniors will be up to next year. Here i

Township of Roxbury partners with American Red Cross to host community blood drive - June 25
 Township of Roxbury will host a community blood drive with the American Red Cross on Thursday, June 25, 2020 from 3:30 p.m.-8:30 p.m. at the Township of Roxbury Senior Center located at 72 Eyland Avenue in Succasunna, NJ.
To Schedule an Appointment:
Individuals can schedule an appointment to give blood with the American Red Cross by visiting
RedCrossBlood.org using the Red Cross Blood Donor App, calling 1-800-RED CROSS or activating the Blood Scheduling Skill for Amazon Alexa.
Blood donation is essential: As the coronavirus pandemic has grown, the Red Cross has experienced an increase in blood drive cancellations across the country due to concerns about congregating at workplaces, college campuses and schools.
Blood donation is essential for hospitals to be able to take care of those who need it. This blood shortage could impact patients who need surgery, victims of car accidents and other emergencies, or patients suffering from cancer. The demand for blood products (blood, platelets and plasma) is constant, even when the world isn't in the midst of a global pandemic.
"We are excited to be hosting a blood drive here in town. If anyone is wondering what they can do to help during this pandemic, donating blood is a great way to give back." said Kellie Ann Keyes, Blood Drive Coordinator.
Additional questions can be directed to Kellie Ann Keyes at 973-448-2053.

 The date has been set as Saturday, June 27th for the 5th Annual Veterans Cruise on Lake Hopatcong, and that means the scramble for seats has already started for this special tribute to our veterans - America's heroes.

This event is extremely popular with the Veterans and will fill quickly, so please contact your appropriate town representative to have your name added to the list as soon as possible. Last year in Hopatcong the first-come-first-served list filled within days and overflowed into a long waiting list. Click here to read more from Hopatcong Lake Regional News.
