EAST RUTHERFORD SCHOOL DISTRICT MISSION STATEMENT
The East Rutherford School District believes in and is committed to shaping lifelong and independent learners by promoting and developing critical cognitive and non-cognitive skills. The District seeks to cultivate learners who demonstrate academic grit and social-emotional resilience by teaching students how to harness sustained commitment when faced with real- world challenges inside and outside the classroom. Recognizing the importance of developing responsible citizenry within our democratic society, we teach our students to be respectful and accepting of our diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds and perspective within East Rutherford Public School and the broader community.
