The high school parking lot is clear and we should have a normal opening after the delay. The Tenakill has receeded.
Thanks to an amazing effort of our custodial crew and their management of the water, we will be ready to welcome our students back after the delayed opening. The parking lots are clear of water. Have a safe trip this morn
Please be advised that Cresskill Public Schools will be on a delayed opening schedule tomorrow, January 10th. Please refer to your email or school website for the schedule.
Due to the expected rain tomorrow and the Governor calling a State of Emergency, all afterschool activities and athletic events will be canceled tomorrow evening and the buildings will be closed promptly at 4:00 pm. Please stay safe everyone!
There is the potential for heavy rains tomorrow evening that we are monitoring closely. We have upgraded our flood barriers to stay in place 24/7. This new configuration ensures our building is protected at all major ventilation points. However, front parking lot flooding that restricts access is a continuous challenge and may cause delays or even closures. Please know that if it becomes evident that the Tenakill will flood its banks, we will notify you as early as possible.
Thank you to our Guidance Department & recent graduates for today's Alumni Panel event with our 11th & 12th graders. Great to hear their experiences of personal and academic/career development! 🐾

We are so excited to celebrate our great high school music students this evening. They have worked hard to put together an amazing event.
Talented performances this afternoon at the holiday concert assembly for the middle schoolers! 🎶 🐾
The parking lot is now clearing of water and we will be able to have after school athletics and rehearsals after 3 pm. We are leaving flood barriers up until early afternoon, and the building will be closed to all students and staff until 3 out of a preponderance of caution.
Cresskill Middle and High School will be closed for Monday, December 18th due to flooding of the front parking lot. The building remains unaffected. The elementary schools will remain on a delayed opening schedule and follow the delayed opening schedule.
Great turnout at the middle school holiday concert! Thank you to all those in attendance to enjoy great music and witness excellence from our students!
