District Statement: Support for the Fleury Family

Dear Orange School District Families and Staff,

Our entire school community is heartbroken as we stand with the Fleury family in the wake of the devastating fire on Mosswood Avenue here in Orange Township. This tragedy has shaken all of us, and we grieve deeply alongside the family during this unimaginable time.

In response, the district’s trauma-informed team will be available throughout the week to provide caring, compassionate support for our students and staff. The Orange Public School District remains unwavering in its commitment to surround the Fleury family with all the assistance and strength we can offer.

We ask our community to hold the Fleury family close in your hearts. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers as they cope with this profound loss.

Gerald Fitzhugh, II, Ed.D.

During the first two years of implementation of the Anti-Bullying Bill of Rights Act, Lincoln Avenue School has made progress in addressing harassment, intimidation, and bullying, as well as in improving the school climate, by establishing HIB programs, approaches, expectations, and initiatives embedded in the school culture.

This annual establishment of programs, approaches, and other initiatives involves all of the following groups: school staff, students, administrators, law enforcement, parents, and community members. These HIB awareness programs have fostered a climate of high expectations for safe, civil, and supportive student and staff behavior.

Our approach at Lincoln Avenue School considers the developmental ages of our students, the severity of the offenses, and prior histories of inappropriate behavior. At Lincoln Avenue School, all students are expected to adhere to rules established by the school district and to submit to remedial and consequential measures appropriately assigned for infractions of these rules.

In addition, Lincoln Avenue School prohibits active or passive support for acts of harassment, intimidation, or bullying. Pupils are encouraged to support others who:

1. Constructively attempt to stop acts of HIB;

2. Provide support to pupils who have been subjected to HIB; and

3. Report acts of HIB to a school staff member.

During the upcoming school year, Lincoln Avenue School will be working to strengthen our professional development for our HIB specialists and staff members. We will improve our communication about HIB policy by including this information in school informative materials. We will improve our HIB-related training of after-school program personnel. In addition, we will make greater strides in the community to inform resident stakeholders about school and district policies. In addition, we will work to improve our delivery of HIB programming to our students in innovative and engaging ways and to strengthen our positive incentives for students who exhibit appropriate behavior in school and in the community.
