Click to be directed to the online registration form. Keynote: Eric Sheninger Eric is the award-winning Principal at New Milford High School located in Bergen County, NJ. His work focuses on leading and learning in the digital age as a model for moving schools and districts forward. This has led to the formation of the Pillars of Digital Leadership, a framework for all educators to initiate sustainable change to transform school cultures. As a result Eric has emerged as an innovative leader and sought after speaker. His main focus is the use of social media and web 2.0 technology as tools to engage students, improve communications with stakeholders, enhance public relations, create a positive brand presence, discover opportunity, transform learning spaces, and help educators grow professionally.

Emergency notifications

WW-P will post emergency closing information on the district web site and on the main district telephone number (609-716-5000). You also can receive emergency closing information via your cell phone from the WW-P Twitter account. There are two ways to get this information:

 

1. If you do not have a Twitter account (or if you do not want an account), follow us on Twitter this way: From your cell phone, send this text "follow WWP_Notices" to 40404. Do not use quotation marks and there is a space between 'follow' and 'WWP_Notices.'

 

2. If you have a Twitter account, follow WWP_Notices

 

To remove your phone from Twitter: Send STOP twice in succession to 40404, which will delete you from Twitter.

 

There will be no phone calls made regarding school closings.
