Dear Students, Families, and Staff,
As we begin this exciting new school year, I want to take a moment to celebrate the incredible strength and spirit of our school community. Every classroom, hallway, and event reflect the power of unity and collaboration that defines us.
We are stronger together!
This year brings some wonderful changes: Bradley Elementary School will now serve our youngest learners in Pre-K through 2nd grade, while Thurgood Marshall Elementary School will welcome students grades 3 through 5. These updates ensure that each school can provide focused support, opportunities, and learning experiences tailored to the needs of our students at every stage.
Our students thrive when families, educators, and community members come together with a shared commitment to growth, learning, and support. By uplifting one another, celebrating achievements, and tackling challenges side by side, we provide an environment where every child can succeed.
As we move through the 2025–2026 school year, let’s continue to foster kindness, inclusion, and resilience. Let’s listen to one another, support one another, and work together to ensure that our schools remain a safe space where all students feel valued, inspired, and prepared for the future.
Thank you for being such an essential part of our school community. Your dedication and commitment make all the difference, because together, we are stronger!
Mr. Mark J. Gerbino, Acting Superintendent
Asbury Park School District
