While NJ schools are closed due to COVID-19 and Govenor Murphy's executive order, ASA students and faculty are connected through our eLearning initiative. All grades, PreSchool-Grade 8, are engaged in daily instruction and learning through numerous direct classroom contact and online resources. Classes are managed through Google Classroom, and teachers use additional educational apps for specific instructional goals. Brainpop, IXL, textbook links, Discovery Science and Dimension U are several commonly used programs. Google Chats, Kami and Zoom are digital tools through which teachers and students share information. Principal, Judith Berg, and several ASA teachers served on the eLearning Planning Committee of the Catholic Schools Office of the Diocese of Paterson during the 2018-19 school year. Their committee work has been essential to the success of the current initiative that will be in place through the duration of the school closure.

We are pleased to share that All Saints Academy will once again partner with PreSchool Advantage in providing quality early childhood education to families. ASA will work with PreSchool Advantage to assist new and returning students that are eligible for entrance to PreSchool and PreKindergarten. Preschool Advantage is a non-profit organization established in 1995 whose mission is to provide tuition for eligible children to attend our partner preschools. Research indicates that children who attend a quality preschool are better educated, interact better with others, are healthier, and have higher economic productivity than those who have not had an opportunity for early childhood education. There are thousands of families in New Jersey who cannot afford to provide their children with early education. Preschool Advantage is committed to addressing the need, one child at a time.
