Assemblyman Joe Danielsen, along with representatives from Enterprise Car Rental and the Piscataway Elks, delivered 75 backpacks filled with school supplies for students in Piscataway schools. Several students, along with Eisenhower Principal Colleen Pongratz and Arbor Principal Janelle Williams, were on hand to thank Assemblyman Danielsen and his partners for their generous donation.

Dear Piscataway Students and Families: Welcome back to school! I hope you had a summer filled with quality family time, outdoor adventures, and lots of great books! I hope your summer prepared you for an inspiring school year as we continue to reflect and embody the theme You, I, We Inspire. We will continue to work together – students, teachers, staff, administrators, Board of Education, and parents – to inspire each other to be our best selves.

While the first day of school for student is September 6, faculty and staff of Piscataway Schools met on September 1 for convocation to officially launch the 2016-2017 school year. A highlight of the gathering was the announcement of the 20 teacher “Inspire Grants” to be funded this year by the Piscataway Education Foundation (PEF). This is the second year the PEF will fund teacher grants through a competitive process. Grants are awarded for innovative teaching practices and non-traditional teaching methods.
