Description: McDivitt School is a New Jersey State School of Character and a National School of Character. Character Education is embedded in the McDivitt School daily culture. We address the six pillars of good character and review anti-bullying strategies. All of our students have the opportunity to demonstrate their citizenship and leadership skills as the school year progresses through Pay It Forward and Service Learning Activities.
Administration and Staff are dedicated to meeting the academic and social needs of our students. The students and staff work to address the Common Core Curriculum Standards and prepare for the State’s Standardized testing for grade 3, 4, & 5 in the spring of each year. The staff encourages our students to participate and support the many school initiatives provided during the school year.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
