November 20, 2013 THE VILLADOM TIMES IV • Page 5 Ramsey School district reports launch of e-newsletter The Ramsey School District has announced the launch of the Ramsey Review, a bi-weekly electronic newsletter that will be published under the direction of the district’s superintendent, Dr. Matthew Murphy. Dr. Murphy invites interested Ramsey and Saddle River community members, organizations, and businesses to join the list of newsletter recipients. Extended family members are also encouraged to sign up. All families with a current e-mail address in the Parent Portal will automati- cally receive these communications. A press release sent by the district notes, “We appreciate the support and involvement of our community and would like to share the many noteworthy programs, improve- ments, changes, goals, and accomplish- ments in the district in a concise manner.” The signup link is available on the dis- trict’s home page under site shortcuts at http://www.ramsey.k12.nj.us. The Ramsey Review will be produced bi-weekly and sent on Monday mornings via Constant Contact. Highlights from the newsletter will also be featured on the district’s website and will ultimately be available in e-Newsletter archives. Those who sign up for the electronic newsletter are greeted by the following mes- sage, “The Ramsey Board of Education is committed to improve the communication between the school district and community. In addition to our website, the electronic Ramsey Review and Ramsey e-Newsletter is another way the district is using tech- nology to be both financially prudent and efficient in communicating the many won- derful things taking place in our schools. Please let your friends and neighbors know of this new and exciting way to receive the latest and most accurate information from the district.” Rotary seeks new members New members are always welcome at the Bergen Highlands-Ramsey Rotary Club’s weekly meetings on Mondays at 12:15 p.m. Meetings are held at Houlihan’s in Ramsey.
