LONG RANGE FACILITY PLANNING
As we head into the middle of the 21st Century with record high enrollment, Livingston Public Schools is faced with some important questions. What are the district's future facility needs? What building repairs, improvements and replacements are needed moving forward to provide our students with the best possible education? Livingston Public Schools remains committed to maintaining the legacy of excellence that attracts residents who place a high value on education and who wish to live in a community that exceeds expectations in all areas.
The district has been pro-actively planning for the future in many ways, including closely monitoring enrollment, commissioning a demographic study, working collaboratively with Township of Livingston officials, and establishing a Long Range Facility Planning Committee.
Visit the district's Long Range Facility Planning webpage to learn more about the committee, and view related presentations and press releases.

Posted by Daniel Garcia on 3/24/2024Dear Harrison Families,
The 5th Grade Committee is running a Cookie sale with Bang Cookies to raise money for their end-of-year activities! Please see the following brochure if you would like to support and would like some tasty cookies as well! The sale ends on April 4! Get your cookies fast!
As many of you are already aware, Mrs. DeVito will be out on leave for the remainder of the school year. I am happy to introduce Ms. Jazmin San Juan who will take over as her leave of absence until her return! Ms. San Juan comes with many years of Physical Education teaching experience in Elementary Schools and she will begin meeting students this week!
If you would like to order a yearbook you can by going to ybpay.lifetouch.com , then put in Yearbook ID code: 2057024 and follow the instructions from there. Yearbooks need to be ordered by 5/4/2024. Ordering will close by that date; you will not be able to order after. If you have any questions, reach out to Mahnaz (mshiraziwhang@gmail.com) NOTE: Each 5th grade student will receive a yearbook free of charge. 5th grade parents should only order one if their child wants an extra one.
If you already know you will not be in school on April 5th, please put it into the parent portal so I can best plan any necessary changes to the day if needed based on numbers. If you are attending that day, there is no need to notify us.
We are excited to announce that plans are underway for our Annual Multicultural Night Celebration! A brochure will go out later this week explaining the event and also asking for volunteers to help support this celebration of diversity within our school! Please volunteer to create a table showcasing a country around the world or help in other ways! The event will be May 22nd from 5:00-7:00 pm!
Our Harrison Food Truck Festival is scheduled for April 18th from 5:00-7:00 pm! Please see the following brochure for more information!
The 5th Grade Committee is holding a Pretzel Sale. Ordering for this sale ends tomorrow. If you would like to order please use the following link to make sure your child receives this snack on Thursday, March 28th!
Kindergarten registration is well underway! Thank you to all those parents who have already registered their children for school next year at Harrison! If you have a Kindergarten student that is attending the Livingston Public Schools next year, please start that registration process! The deadline for current Livingston residents is May 15th. Please see the instructions on the website!
Our TREP$ Marketplace will be open on Friday, April 12th from 5:00-7:00!
