Interim Superintendent

November 2022

Dear Teaneck Community Members,

The Teaneck Public School District is in the process of installing signs at the Administration Building (651 Teaneck Road) and Benjamin Franklin, Bryant, Hawthorne, Lowell, Theodora Smiley Lacey, and Whittier Schools. The contractor obtained building permits from the Township and is currently installing the underground electrical conduits, concrete footings, and steel support posts. The previous administration informed the Township that the schools would have the capability to post Township emergency notifications to the community. The signs can be programmed to dim at night or completely turn off.

The Lowell sign is a single sided sign and is angled toward the intersection of Lincoln Place and Ramapo Road. The remaining signs will be double-sided. The Whitter sign will be located along West Englewood Avenue in front of the flagpole and close to the intersection of Essex Road. The Benjamin Franklin sign will be located along Windsor Road near the entrance driveway to the parking lot. The Lacey and Bryant signs will be along Teaneck Road. Finally, the Hawthorne sign will be in the same place as the existing sign.

The District is committed to being good community members. We are encouraged in our belief that this signage will assist the community in its communications as well as informing our parent/guardian population.

Sincerely,

Barbara Pinsak, Interim Superintendent of Schools For the Teaneck Board of Education
