In your capacity as a staff member, parent, student or community member, we encourage you to continue to support Passaic Valley's tradition and experience that sense of pride. N umerous staff members, students, parents and local residents took the opportunity to meet with me during the scheduled evening and weekend sessions. I sensed an excitement and enthusiasm from all of the people I've met and a genuine interest in assisting the administration and Board of Education to continue to provide the very best experience for Passaic Valley students.
Life is one indivisible whole.
One cannot do right in one department of life whilst he is occupied in doing wrong in any other department. Mahatma Gandhi O ur high school and the regional community represent that indivisible whole and a major part of that whole is the history and tradition of Passaic Valley. We need to work cooperatively to establish open lines of communication, conduct an ongoing audit of our overall performance and put a plan of action into place to address any identified deficiencies. P ublic education no longer has the monopoly it once enjoyed and we need to be competitive in this marketplace. All of us in public education need to recognize that we helped to create an environment where charter schools and choice became a reality.
