The Center School "Back" Pack

​When preparing for the start of the school year, parents always have a list of things to get done.  Some things are physical, like shopping for school supplies and making sure their child's physical backpack is ready to go.  Other things are part of a more metaphorical backpack, like updating their school forms or making sure their student has a printed copy of their schedule.

The Center School "Back" Pack is a centralized set of resources, designed to make you, and your child, comfortable with their first day back in school.  Please read thorough each of the common questions we've been asked by parents, and by the time you've read each of the answers, you'll know what you have to do to make your child's first day a successful one.

All student schedules will be available in in Genesis no later than August 31st, and can be accessed via our Parent Portal.  Once you have logged into Genesis, you will find their schedule in the appropriately named "Schedule" tab at the top of the page.  More information on creating and logging into a Genesis account can be found HERE.

Q. How do I contact you when I have questions?
A.  The school's primary phone number is 908-253-3870.  In addition, you can contact our Executive Director, Dr. Ronald Rinaldi at  rrinaldi@center.school, our Assistant Director, Maryellen Grabowski at mgrabowski@center.school, or our Head of Admissions, Kerri Spotts at kspotts@center.school.  Should you need to contact one of your child's teachers, their email address is their first initial followed by their last name, ending with @center.school.  So, for example, if you were trying to reach Jane Smith, her email address would be jsmith@center.school
