Ask the Legislature to Increase Nonpublic School Accounts in FY 2022 Budget

Governor Murphy announced his proposed Budget for Fiscal Year 2022 on February 23, 2021. 

The Budget process is now in the hands of the Legislature. We are asking the Legislature for increases in the per-pupil amounts for the nonpublic transportation ceiling and the Nonpublic School Technology Initiative.

 Specifically, we are asking for the nonpublic school transportation ceiling to be raised to $1,150.00 and for the per-pupil amount for nonpublic school technology to be increased to $45.00.

WALK A THON THANK YOU!!

A HUGE Walk-a-Thon THANK YOU to all our incredible SRLA students and parents who helped make the 2021 Walk-a-Thon such a success!!

Your amazing children moved and grooved to the DJ while raising $18,500 for their school!!! These funds will go a long way toward reaching our fundraising goal for the year. We love our SRLA families! 

We would like to give a big, warm thank you to Mrs. Underwood and Danny for all their support planning the big day. To Johnny for helping set up everything we need, and to all our teachers for being so gracious with handing out the t-shirts and for walking with our students.  

Another big thank you to Mary Uzzolino for sharing her talents in creating our Walk-A-Thon poster and shirt logo. The kids loved them! Thank you Catherine Pieroni for keeping track of all the pledges, Jess May for her festive balloon arch, and to Melanie Farmer for all her amazing help communicating to our school community in the Green Envelope. 

And we can't forget our precious Pre-K students who cheered on the big kids with their darling signs of love and support! What a special group! 

Last but not least, to our stellar Walk-A-Thon volunteers: Co-chairs Theresa Fischer and Heide Schaffner, along with Jennifer Coleman and Jenn Mercado. THANK YOU for working so hard to make Walk-A-Thon so fun and successful for our kids. We couldn't reach our goals without the help of generous parent volunteers like you. 

Cheers to everyone! 

See you all at WISH UPON A STAR on June 13!
