ALERT
Dear Junior/Senior High Parents,
We learn more regarding this pandemic with each passing hour. As many of you are well aware, schools around the country are closing indefinitely or at the minimum for a few days or weeks.
Due to the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) outbreak, Haddon Heights School District will close temporarily and move to remote learning. We understand that the school closing will cause a disruption for your family schedule, but we must take these measures out of an abundance of caution. We will follow all State and Federal guidelines to reopen when deemed safe. The district will be closed starting Monday, March 16, 2020 through Friday, March 27, 2020.
Beginning on Monday, we ask that your child begins remote learning. Students will be educated from home. On Friday, March 13, 2020, our staff utilized an in-service day to create and prepare lessons in anticipation of a school closing. All staff have prepared two weeks of remote instructional lessons from K-12.
The NJDOE is allowing remote learning to count towards our 180-day requirement for instruction. In the event of a school closure the following is a partial list for general staff to provide an overview.
1. Teachers will post assignments and assessments for ELA, MATH, SOCIAL STUDIES, SCIENCE, WORLD LANGUAGE, PE/HEALTH, and ELECTIVES using Google Classroom or other platforms. Each teacher will be required to post for every class, every day. This is required to have each day count as one of our required 180 days.
2. Teachers, Administrators, Secretaries, Nurses, Specialists, and Guidance Counselors will be available during office hours. Teachers will post their times each day on Google Classroom.
Finally, we want to thank everyone for their understanding, patience, and cooperation as we work through this together to assure the safety of our students, staff, and community. We will continue to communicate and update our school community, as more information becomes available.
Sincerely,
Eric Rosen
Principal

On Saturday 2/8, the 2020 Junior High School Colonial Conference tournament was held at Paulsboro High School. This is the end of the season finals for these teams and is always a battle.
We are proud to say that this year our Haddon Heights Junior High team finished with two champions (Dominic Azzari (a three-time champ) at 105 lbs and Josh DelGozzo at 115 lbs), two second place finishes (Cole Denning at 75 lbs and Parker Banks at 95 lbs), one third place finisher (Liam Wikberg at 110 lbs), and two fourth place finishers (Pearson Wolfe at 90 lbs and Louis DiNardo at 110 lbs).
