Additional Laptop Pickup Opportunity

We are offering an additional laptop pickup opportunity for all RHS & ACE 9th-grade students and new entrants who have not yet received their district-issued laptop.

📅 Thursday, August 27, 2026
⏰ 8:00 a.m.–12:30 p.m. and 3:00–4:00 p.m.
📍 Location: Door 1, rear entrance of the RHS main building

We strongly encourage students and parents/guardians to take advantage of this additional opportunity so that students are prepared with their devices for the first day of school.

Important: If students are unable to attend during these Thursday pickup times, they will not be eligible to pick up their laptop again until September 3 at 12:30 p.m.

When we look beyond test scores to nurture the whole child, student achievement naturally follows.

At Rahway Public Schools, our commitment to a Whole Child approach isn't a shift away from high academic expectations—it is the foundation that makes higher test scores possible. 📈🍎

Here is why focusing on the whole child drives real academic success:

🧠 Emotional Well-Being Drives Intellectual Growth: A student who feels safe, supported, and confident is far better equipped to tackle challenging math, reading, and problem-solving skills.
🏃‍♂️ Physical & Mental Health Sharpen Focus: Healthy, active, and emotionally resilient students retain knowledge better and show higher engagement in the classroom.
🤝 Belonging Boosts Performance: When students feel valued and connected to their school community, attendance improves, discipline decreases, and academic effort naturally rises.

We don't choose between caring for our students and achieving high test scores—caring for the whole child is HOW we achieve higher test scores. 🚀
