BOE Candidate Forum

Moorestown’s Home & School organization will be hosting a Board of Education (BOE) Candidate Forum via Zoom on Monday, October 18th at 7 p.m. MooreUnity will be moderating the event as they have for the past several years. The Candidate Forum provides voters with an opportunity to get to know each of the six candidates, so they can make informed decisions on Election Day.

To ensure the Forum runs smoothly in the Zoom format, voters are asked to submit questions in advance to [email protected] no later than October 12th. As questions come in, MooreUnity will work with a statistician to prioritize them based upon the most common themes. The BOE election is non-partisan, but to avoid any perception of party favoritism, the MooreUnity volunteers who read and prioritize the questions will be made up of an equal number of Democrats and Republicans.

We hope you can join, but if you can’t, the event will be recorded and available to view at a later date. Here’s the link: Please click the link below to join the webinar:

Moorestown Better Together Survey

The Better Together Moorestown task force, formed earlier this year by Town Council has a mission of making Moorestown a thriving community where all people feel safe, respected, welcomed and included.  To assess the community’s strengths and areas for improvement, the task force is asking anyone who lives, works, worships in (or frequently visits) Moorestown to complete the community survey.  The survey is open through October 31st.  Participants are asked to provide honest feedback about their experiences living and/or working in Moorestown.  It only takes about 5-10 minutes to complete and can be accessed at Better Together Moorestown Community Survey or by using the QR code below.  All responses are anonymous.  Those needing assistance completing the survey due to lack of internet, language/vision challenges, or any other reasons can contact the Better Together Survey hotline at (856) 942-3283 or e-mail [email protected]

Staff Appreciation Luncheon

This year we would like to celebrate our teachers with our annual Staff appreciation luncheon on Thursday, May 6, 2021. It will be a little different this year with a grab-and-go theme to maintain health and safety for all staff members. Cathy’s Catering in Moorestown on Main Street will help us with this event. We also need your help!! We have linked a Sign-up Genius below.  Please sign up to donate $20 to help reach our goal to make this a special thank you to the teachers & staff for all the hard work they have put forth this year. We are also asking for some drink donations. Please drop off donations by May 3rd.

Thank you in advance for your donations! If you have any questions or concerns please contact Heather Colella at [email protected] or 215-910-1313.
