“Academic Excellence Is Job Number One”

 

 

Hackettstown High School is organized for the purpose of educating young people for a satisfying and productive life.  Our challenge is to recognize each student as an individual and to help each student develop a feeling of self worth. Educators should stimulate the student to develop those attitudes, skills, and ideals that will help him or her to become a useful and knowledgeable citizen while ensuring that our school continues to affirm high moral and ethical standards.

 

In order to do that, Hackettstown High School offers an environment that has tradition, pride and the goal of academic excellence at its base.  Students are challenged by our caring, compassionate and dedicated teachers on a daily basis, creating a rigorous academic environment where student achievement is realized both in and out of the classroom.

 

In order to achieve success, student responsibility and discipline are instrumental.  Students must demonstrate responsibility in all facets of high school life and must be accountable for their actions.  Students should understand that school is a dignified environment therefore dress and behavior must always be appropriate.  As educators, we prepare your son or daughter for future education and employment, so every class, every interaction and every challenge is relevant to their future.

 

As part of the total community, we seek to cooperate with the community, recognizing that this relationship contributes immensely to the development of our youth.  To that end, we encourage parents to play a significant role in this cooperative effort.  It is our goal that everyone feel connected to the school and we encourage each of you to stop by, call or email us if you have any questions or concerns. We will, of course, do all that we can to assist you.

 

Finally we are anticipating an exciting school year and encourage each of you to take full advantage of what Hackettstown High has to offer.

 

 

Sincerely,

 

Brian Purzak
