Denville Community Facilities Concerns and Possibility of Leasing St. Mary's Prep 
September 20, 2019

The Denville Township School District has been grappling with the lack of instructional space for over two decades. Thankfully in the school year 2018-19 the district was able to eliminate the use of substandard space (trailers, hallways, etc.) for instruction. Due to several factors explained in the presentation and information linked below, the availability of instructional space is still a concern.

Important facts and links to information:

· In June of 2019, Saint Mary's Prep closed and is now available as a possible lease for the district. This is an ongoing process and nothing has been decided including the terms of the proposed lease. The church and diocese are not interested in selling the building.

Congratulations to Denville Schools for Becoming a Future Ready District

Future Ready Schools New Jersey is a certification program that was established by using the National Future Ready Framework designed by the Alliance for Excellent Education, and then customized to fit New Jersey schools.  The program is a coalition of the New Jersey Department of Education, the New Jersey School Boards Association and New Jersey Institute of Technology.  The goal of the program is to ensure that New Jersey Schools have a culture of digital innovation with the use of technology, digital content and media to prepare New Jersey students for the rapidly changing information age, so that students can be engaged and successful members of a digital society and workforce.

All 3 of Denville Township Schools, Lakeview, Riverview, and Valleyview formed teams to gather and present information to the NJ Future Ready Certification Committees for review.  We are very excited that all 3 schools received Bronze Level Certification and exceled in the areas of Leadership, Education and Technology.  To learn more about the New Jersey Future Ready Schools Certification - click here
