Welcome to the MCESA website. Wish we could be happy and cheery….but we are all
saddened and anxious by what is going on around us.

First and foremost, please understand that we (your officers, building reps and NJEA) are
doing as much as possible to answer your questions and resolve your issues as best and as
quickly as we can. Remember, we are sailing in unchartered waters – no one really knows
what to do and how to do it, but we are certainly trying!

Be assured that we are frequently in contact with our NJEA contacts for guidance and we
are also trying to maintain open lines of communication with the ESCNJ administration. In
the meantime, we ask that all teachers and support personnel work cooperatively just as
you would if we were still “in school.” Please continue to provide meaningful educational
opportunities for your students and maintain contact with them and/or their families.

The coronavirus situation is most definitely frightening. We need to try to remain calm and
vigilant and we need to stay safe. Please follow the government guidelines:
 Wash your hands frequently and carefully
 Cough into your elbow or a tissue
 Try not to touch your face
 Keep a safe distance from others (6 feet is the recommendation)
 Stay home as much as possible
