What To Expect As School Ends In Jersey Shore

For many if not most schools in the shore area this coming week will mark the end of the school year. It’s always interesting to me how the daily routine changes for so many once the year comes to a close. Alarms are no longer set, there’s no rush to get the kids dressed, lunches made and out of the house for the school bus. However for many families in which both Mom and Dad work the routine can be even more daunting with babysitters, camp and other arrangements that need to be made. In those cases parents will be looking forward to when their kids go back to school in September.

Many are celebrating a milestone that came with the end of the school year. As happens annually there are a host of teachers, administrators and support staff who will retire after many years of service. They have impacted the lives of countless students in a positive manner and here’s wishing them all the best as they enter a very different phase which hopefully they’ll enjoy. I’ve really never met an unhappy retiree so I’m sure all will be good.

The playing of pomp and circumstance will be heard as high school graduation ceremonies take place throughout the Jersey Shore. It’s a special time for graduates and especially their families as they celebrate the end of one phase and the beginning of another. Here’s wishing the class of 2026 all the best.
