SEA ISLE CITY - New Jersey School District

About School District: SEA ISLE CITY STATEMENT 5-1-12  As many people are aware, the Sea Isle City Board of Education has sent several requests over the last fourteen months to the Governor, the Acting Commissioner of Education, the Executive County Superintendent and the New Jersey State Board of Education requesting that the existing send-receive relationship between Sea Isle and the Ocean City Board of Education be expanded to include grades Kindergarten through Twelve. Those requests have been consistently joined and supported by Ocean City. The Board has previously prepared and distributed a Frequently Asked Questions document that sets out and explains the reasoning for Sea Isle’s requests and concerns for the future. Put simply, due to continued declining enrollment and certain budgetary deficiencies and issues, there is serious concern that Sea Isle will not be able to provide its students with a safe, comprehensive and thorough and efficient education at the Sea Isle City Public School next year. On Monday, April 30, 2012, both Sea Isle and Ocean City received a response to their requests by way of the Acting Commissioner of Education issuing an Order to Show Cause why the Sea Isle School should not be closed and its remaining students sent to Ocean City. As a further showing of the cooperation and support that has defined the decades long send-receive relationship, both school districts have decided not to oppose or object to the Order to Show Cause. Although the continued operation of the Sea Isle School has been the subject of much discussion and debate over the last ten years, the dedication of our teachers to our students has never wavered or been in question. For this, the Board and the residents of Sea Isle are eternally grateful and appreciative. Additional information will be made available about how this transition will take place and when meetings and open houses will be held as soon as plans are finalized
