DINNER IS ONLY HALF OF THE FUN

So don't miss WPSBA's Annual Meeting and Dinner on June 9th, where we'll cycle through a vote on the 2022-23 budget and Board of Directors Slate and wrap up the year together in-person (register through your District Clerk).

SEE WHAT SCHOOLS IN NJ MUST INCLUDE IN SEX ED
NEW JERSEY SCHOOL OFFICIALS HAVE GONE on record in defense of their sex education standards. Public pressure to reexamine the standards set in 2020 did not tip the scales and the decision to include controversial topics, such as gender identity and abortion, will move forward as planned. The intent of these revisions is to safeguard the physical and emotional well-being of students.
Note for BOE Presidents:
