Good day,
As the new school year arrives, I wanted to thank our faculty and staff for their continuing commitment to our students and community as the District navigates its way forward during these challenging times. Our priority remains providing a meaningful and exciting experience for all our learners as they continue their journey through the Hazlet school district.
As Benjamin Franklin once noted, “Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.” To that end, we will steadfastly continue to involve all our learners as they achieve their maximum potential.
We will remain prepared to pivot in the moment and adjust to any newly arriving circumstances in order to maximize the safety, good health and educational success for all stakeholders in our learning community.
Should you have questions or concerns, please contact the principal of your child's school and he or she will be able to address your inquiry directly or put you in touch with someone who can. On behalf of the Board of Education and Central Administration, we look forward to continuing our commitment to putting children first!
A safe and productive 2025-26 school year to all . . .
Sincerely,
Scott Ridley, Ed.D.
Superintendent of Schools
