District Security Update

The Little Ferry Public Schools have added to their security by requiring ALL Visitors, Parents, and Guardians to present a photo ID at the Main Entrance in order to gain access to the building or pick up a child.
In order to pick up a child from the nurse, school, or any other office, the parent or guardian must present a photo ID that is validated against our Student Information System. If you do not present a photo ID, we will have to call another contact person in our database to release the child.
We are sorry for any inconvenience, but we are remaining cautious on the side of safety. Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter.
