To All Parents and Guardians: New Jersey recognizes the importance of providing services to school age children with special needs through its Project Child Find efforts. Toward this end, local school districts can provide evaluations for children three to five years of age that appear to have problems in communications, motor, social-emotional or learning areas. Children found to be eligible for special education programming and related services are entitled to free and appropriate special education programming and related services. If you know of preschoolers who appear to have one or more of the following signs, please ask their parents to call their principal at the nonpublic school or their local public school district’s office of special services: Significant delays in acquiring language or significant speech problems; Significant difficulty walking, running or manipulating small objects; Frequent health problems or birth handicaps; Consistent trouble seeing or hearing; Tendency toward temper tantrums or excessive anxiety or shyness; Significant difficulty playing appropriately with other children; and/or Significant problems paying attention and listening School age students who are age five or older may also be eligible for free and appropriate special education programming and related services if they have problems in learning, cognition, communications, motor abilities and social-emotional areas. Parents should contact their principal at the nonpublic school or their local public school district’s office of special services for additional information concerning eligibility. If you are aware of any child ages birth to three years of age, early intervention services are available. Call you local school district’s child study team for information. All information about such requests will be kept confidential. Thank you for helping to disseminate this important information.
Read what our students say about our school: "Catholic Schools week is a very important week at Saints Mary & Elizabeth Academy because it brings the community at the Academy closer together. The week is filled with a number of activities each day. Sharing day is a day when upper classmen spend some time with the younger students. They eat together, make a project together, and might even watch a movie together. It is a time for older and younger students to get to know one another better. Saints Mary & Elizabeth Academy is a wonderful school. It is filled with a friendly and caring staff. The students here are extremely friendly and make you feel at home. I am happy to be part of the family at Saints Mary and Elizabeth Academy." -- Chantley Thomas, Grade 8
