The week
beginning the first Monday in October is recognized as the Week of
Respect in New Jersey schools. Iselin Middle School is excited to observe
this week by providing our students with age-appropriate activities that focus
on character building and bullying prevention, throughout the month of October.
In addition to classroom activities, the Week of Respect will include special
dress up days. Please take the time to speak with your child about
respecting themselves and others. Thank you in advance for your participation
and support!
