With great honor, we announce that the Swift Elementary School has been recognized by a panel of educational experts through a year-long process as one of only ten schools in the State of New Jersey as a Star School. Star Schools were selected through criteria recognizing quality and innovative instructional practices. Successful schools have strong visionary leadership, a sense of shared purpose, a climate conducive to learning, and they convey a message to all students that they can learn. The Swift Elementary School has been found to be exemplary in these four areas.
Schools are more than buildings.
Schools are committed to teaching and learning, while reflecting the values of the community they serve. Therefore, this award is not only a tribute to the Swift Elementary school, but also a tribute to the community of Egg Harbor Township.
