At 5 PM students will no longer be able to access the building and it will be closed until full power is restored. We anticipate this will be the case and school will resume normally tomorrow. However, students and staff are advised to dress comfortably tomorrow as the AC will not be operational in almost all of the building. Thank you again for your understanding and patience. Additionally, thank you again to our first responders and staff for keeping our students safe!
We are now allowing students that are escorted in small groups by fire officials to enter the building and get belongings only if absolutely necessary.
Thank you everyone for your patience. We do have an update on the fire. It was contained in the HVAC chiller on the roof of the high school. There was no additional damage to the roof or school. Our staff will be able to access the building after dismissal but not our students until an electrician is on site. Parents can pick up their children at the rec center.
Students are now being evacuated to the recreation center. We will set up the system for dismissal from there. Students and staff will not be permitted to return to the building until it is fully cleared. All belongings must remain until that time. We appreciate your patience as the situation evolves. Sincere thanks goes out to our emergency services. They have been organized, professional, and timely to ensure our building, students, and staff are safe. They are the best!
In about five minutes, we will be evacuating to the recreation center to dismiss from there. Students will not be permitted back to the building until we fully clear it. We ask parents not to go to the rec center until we complete the evacuation.
Cresskill High School had a small fire that is occurring on the roof of the gym. Police and firefighters are on site and all staff and students have been evacuated safely. We will notify you of any updates. Please do not pull into the driveway until we send further notification. You will only block the driveway.
The board of education approved our budget submission that will now go to the Executive County Superintendent for approval. Thank you to our BA, Ms. Delasandro, the finance committee of the BOE, and the administrative team for their help in ensuring a financially responsible and balanced budget.
