Be sure to sign up for English Testing prior to the start of school.
We will be in touch with you if a test is needed.
Bring your family and join us for our annual new family welcome night on September 10th from 5:30-7pm in the Ridge High School Cafeteria. We will let you know about how our schools work and where you can go for more information. Refreshments, Translators and childcare will be provided.
The Bernards Township Schools are rich in languages and cultures from around the world.
Students in our schools who are learning English receive daily ESL class from a certified ESL teacher to help them grow in proficiency. They may be pulled out from their general education classes or an ESL teacher may come in to assist in their classroom.
