Members of the National Junior Honor Society spearheaded a campaign in which the students collected baby booties and hats for babies in the NICU Unit at Newark Beth Israel. Over 350 hats and booties were collected due to the generosity of the students, parents and private donations of many.
Dear Parents and Guardians:
This has been a particularly stressful and difficult time for everyone. As we have communicated we are following CDC protocol. I have attached the K-12 School guidelines for your reference. Please note in the second to last paragraph on the right column, it states "A school or public health official will determine the length of quarantine. The CDC recommends a total of 14 days from the date of exposure." In all cases the determination has been made in consultation with the Clark Board of Health and the Archdiocese of Newark.
In each case where we have quarantined a particular class, there have been several more positive covid cases in the following days.
If your child is fully vaccinated they do not have to quarantine. Fully vaccinated is defined as having 2 shots of vaccine and being 2 weeks removed from the second shot. As of right now we have very few students in that category although many are in the process. If you are unsure if we have your child's vaccination card, please resend to Mrs. Roach at nroach@sjanj.org.
I know this has been very difficult for everyone and we certainly appreciate your patience and support. All decisions are made with the safety and concern for all the children.

Principal's Welcome
Inspiring mind and soul, Saint John the Apostle School is a faith-centered, academic community based on the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church. We're a 2011 National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence and Middle States Association accredited school. We are committed to serving all, regardless of race, nationality, or religion. Our goal is to focus on academic excellence as well as to instill spiritual, moral, and social values to prepare students for the future.
The people of Saint John the Apostle School community form the cornerstone of its success. From the moment you enter the doors of the school, you feel the presence of God's love. This is particularly apparent in the main building of the campus, as the church is located within the school. The spiritual nature of the school is enhanced by its traditions that strengthen its roots and heritage.
The strengths of the administration, faculty, and students together form a bond unique to St. John the Apostle School. Over 26 faculty members cumulatively have an average of 16 years of teaching experience. This "strength in numbers" is believed to have a profound effect on the outcome of student achievement. Aware that no two children learn alike, differentiated instruction of various modalities enhances the learning environment for the student.
I encourage you to explore our website to see what unique opportunities St. John the Apostle School offers to its students and families. If you require further assistance or would like to arrange a visit, please contact us.
