  • Masks will be optional in schools beginning on March 7, 2022.  Masks are still mandatory on school buses. Per the NJDOE Updated Public Health Recommendations released on February 23, 2022 In addition, masks must be worn by all passengers on buses, including school buses, regardless of vaccination status per the Federal Order by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.”

  • To keep the Fair Funding for CHPS in front of Governor Murphy, we will be continuing our "Tuesday Tweet", we will ask Cherry Hill parents, teachers and citizens to tweet to the Gov to think of Cherry Hill in his budget planning. Let's make sure he knows we're watching him and how he spends the education dollars this year. Encourage him to make it equitable for us and the underfunded districts. Please ask your schools to tweet @GovMurphy with short, supportive statements for fair funding for Cherry Hill schools @chpstweets.  Also copy:
