WEEKEND CLASSES CANCELED DUE TO HURRICANE IRENE
Governor Christie has ordered Mandatory evacuations of some low lying areas which may effect some of our students. We don't want you traveling in potential bad weather either therefore classes this weekend are canceled and will be rescheduled.
We will notify all students to discuss most convenient time to makeup the class for them before rescheduling it. We'll work out with the students the most convenient schedule for them as next weekend is the holiday so you'll be given the option to have class them or the following weekend for makeup.

"Turn Around, Don't Drown." NEVER attempt to cross floodwater, whether on foot, by swimming, or in a car or SUV. Remember: Just six inches of fast-moving floodwater can knock you off your feet. Two feet of water can sweep an SUV off the road. http://www.ready.nj.gov/plan/flood-turnaround.html
