Trillium Charter School Receives Board Approval from Flemington Boro
This press release concerns the recent Board of Adjustment action taken by the Board regarding the Trillium Charter School. The Board of Adjustment unanimously approved the Charter School's application for construction.
Flemington, NJ, March 03, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Local School Embraced in Hopes of Bringing Business Back to Downtown Flemington.
The Flemington Planning Board has unanimously approved the Trillium Charter School to be located at One East Main Street in Downtown Flemington. School Founders and administration will now begin working on converting the former town administrative offices to the Trillium Charter School. Individual classrooms, common areas, an outdoor garden and more will all be built.
Parent Advocate, Michael Karpinski, who attended the planning board meeting said, “The meeting was very positive. Board members and town residents were excited and pleased with the proposal. They hope the school will bring more life and business to a once bustling downtown Flemington.”
The free public school will open its doors this September with to up to 152 students from the sending districts of Flemington-Raritan, Delaware Township, and East Amwell Township and surrounding areas. The school, which will be the first charter school in Hunterdon County, will enroll students for Kindergarten through Grade Four, and grow by one grade each year to ultimately serve Kindergarten through Eighth Grade. Applications are currently being accepted for September enrollment and are available at http://school.trilliumeducation.org.
The school’s mission is to educate according to three commitments: to each learner as an individual, each learner as a member of families and communities, and to the Earth. The school will focus on supporting the development of the whole child: intellectually, physically, socially, and emotionally. Small class sizes and project-based learning are two of the ways that Trillium Charter School will achieve this mission.
Rose King, Lambertville resident, educator, and Lead Founder of Trillium Charter School, “In the last three years, we’ve been amazed at the level of public interest in our mission. Many people collaborated in the chartering process and we believe that Trillium Charter School will be an outstanding public school option for students and their families.”
Families interested in learning more about the school can attend the school’s monthly information sessions, held at the Hunterdon County Library Headquarters, at 7:00pm on the second Tuesday of each month. They can also attend the Silent Auction scheduled for March 20th at 7:30pm at the Shaker Café in Flemington. More information about these events and the school is available by visiting the school at http://school.trilliumeducation.org, or by emailing Danielle Karpinski at Danielle@trilliumeducation.org.
