Principal's Message:
We are striving to create memorable learning experiences for our learning community. We have exciting things planned to bring us together, to celebrate our Seniors, and to work back to a new normal in 2021. Be sure to check out our upcoming sporting events being live-streamed on GoRamsTV.com as well as our Music Department's Choral Collage (2/8; 7pm), the RHS Band Concert (2/11; 8pm).
A Message to Our Seniors:
We are working to plan opportunities for you to come together as a class. You will be hearing about those soon. We appreciate your support in establishing the safe environment that we have at Ramsey High School. Please be aware of the law: P.L. 2020 c. 41, which established the Bridge Year Pilot Program. The purpose of this program is to provide students in the graduating classes of 2021 and 2022 with the opportunity to offset disruptions to learning opportunities and participation in extracurricular activities that might have resulted from the closure of schools to in-person instruction in Spring 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. (Please note the law prohibits Bridge Year students from participating in any fall or winter sports.) Our Director of Guidance, Mr. Biggan is our Bridge Year Liaison. Seniors interested in a Bridge Year must contact Mr. Biggan, via email (mbiggan@ramsey.k12.nj.us), by February 15 to declare interest in a “bridge year” .
Be Well, Stay Safe, & Go Rams
