Next week is National School Counseling Week, which highlights the unique contribution of school counselors within U.S. school systems. We appreciate each of our counselors and mental health professionals here in the Wyckoff schools, and all they do each day to support our students’ needs. Congratulations to our boys’ and girls’ basketball teams on their winning seasons this year. The boys’ team finished with an impressive record of 10-1, and the girls’ team with a record of 8-2. The postseason begins next week. Kindergarten registration for the fall of 2023 is now open. Wyckoff families whose child will turn 5 by October 1 can register online at www.wyckoffps.org.
