Welcome to the 2007 – 2008 School Year at Charles Olbon School! What an exciting time for all of us as the new Early Learning Center for West Paterson opens. The halls and classrooms are filled with the sounds of students learning. To support new programs designed to reduce class size, many of our classrooms have two teachers or a teacher and an aide assisting our young learners. This should allow for more of our students to receive small group instruction thus making your children’s first educational experience productive, happy and safe. We at CO want to instill in each child a lifelong love of learning and these new programs and improvements will move us in that direction.

Student arrival and dismissal has run more smoothly each day. With your cooperation, all of the children, whether they ride the bus or they are dropped off and picked up, will experience a safe and smooth transition.

I am very happy to be working with all of the parents of West Paterson. My door is always open and your opinions will always be taken into consideration with the utmost sincerity. Let us all try to work together to assure that all of the students at Charles Olbon can reach their greatest potential. Thank you for your cooperation.

Sincerely,
Linda Dewey
Principal, Charles Olbon School
