Berkeley Schools To Expand In-Person Schedule Next Week

BERKELEY, NJ — Students in the Berkeley Township School District can eat their lunch in school beginning next week.

The district announced an expanded schedule that allows time for students to bring or receive lunch that they can eat at school instead of taking it home with them.

Parents can continue to pre-order lunch for their children using the form on the district website. All meals will be free of charge through June 2022.

The expanded schedule for in-person students begins Monday:

• Berkeley Township Elementary School: 7:25 a.m. - 1:10 p.m.
• Clara B. Worth School: 8:05 a.m.- 1:50 p.m.
• Bayville Elementary School: 8:40 a.m.- 2:25 p.m.
• H & M Potter School: 9:15 a.m.- 3:00 p.m.

In a letter to parents, Superintendent James Roselli said parents should continue completing the COVID-19 student questionnaire on the parent portal for children each morning prior to the start of school.

“We must work together to protect the health and safety of our students, staff and community,” he wrote. “As always, thank you for your continued support. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your building principal.”
