Dear CJH Families,
Welcome to a new year at C.J. Hooker Middle School! We are ready to begin the 2025/2026 school year and look forward to you and your family partnering with us to have a productive and enjoyable experience. Together we can make this the best year ever.
Please make a note of the following:
- The Middle School day will start at 7:30a.m. and dismissal will begin at approximately 2:25 p.m. All students must be in their classrooms by 7:40 a.m.
- Students will be able to access their complete schedule through Parent Portal prior to the first day of school.
- If you will be transporting your child home at the end of the day, please allow the buses to leave the parking lot before you enter.
- The PASS bus will leave the Middle School promptly at 3:15 p.m. daily. Procedures for riding the PASS bus will be explained to students at the grade level orientation meeting in September.
- Goshen CSD will continue using MYSchoolBucks, a secure, online payment system that allows parents to quickly deposit money into their child’s account at their own convenience. There is a link to sign up on the website under the Food Services tab.
- There will be no charge for breakfast or lunch for the 2025-2026 school year.
- There will be a charge for snacks and drinks for the 2025-2026 school year.
- Please review Parent Square for the new NY State Mandated cell phone policy that will be in place this year.
We are excited to welcome the students back to school on Wednesday, September 3rd! CJH is an amazing school with a great faculty and staff offering many academic and co-curricular opportunities. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact the main office at 845-615-6300.
Enjoy the remaining days of summer vacation!
