We are proud to announce that Washington School, Jessie F. George School, and the Middle School have received 2019 Gold Level Recognition under the NJ Safe Routes to Schools Program (NJSRTS). NJSRTS, which is created and supported by the New Jersey Department of Transportation with funding from the Federal Highway Administration, enables and encourages safer and more accessible walking and bicycling environments for children in New Jersey, thereby encouraging a healthy and active lifestyle from an early age. These three schools join Berkeley and Brookside who were recognized as Gold Level recipients in 2017.
