South Bergen Jointure Commission Honored with School Leader Award
The South Bergen Jointure Commission was honored Nov. 30 at the Bergen County School Boards Association at Henry P. Becton Regional High School for being a recognized program in the 2022-2023 School Leader awards for its “No Barriers: Empowering Special Education Students to Live Full and Independent Lives” program. The program has helped students mitigate their disabilities, which has resulted in developing learning strategies that challenge them to live full and independent lives.
