Rumson-Fair Haven board approves curricula revisions, dual enrollment and textbooks for 2025-26
Summary
The board approved revised curricula (including multiple AP and language courses), dual-enrollment partnerships with Rutgers and Stockton universities, new textbooks and a delayed opening for PSAT testing on Oct. 8, 2025.
At the Aug. 26 meeting the board approved a range of education items for 2025-26.
Approved curriculum revisions included courses such as Anatomy & Physiology Honors, AP Biology, AP Chemistry, AP Computer Science, AP Environmental Science, AP U.S. History and multiple world-language sequences. The board also approved dual enrollment partnerships with Rutgers University and Stockton University for the 2025-26 school year.
The board approved a set of new textbooks and books listed in the minutes (examples include Crying in H Mart; Believe: My Faith and the Tackle that Changed my Life; Into Thin Air; Marley & Me; Death of a Salesman; Educated; I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings). The board approved a delayed opening of 10:30 a.m. on Oct. 8, 2025 for PSAT testing and multiple field-trip and fundraising requests for marching band and athletic programs.
On a motion by Mr. Grant, seconded by Mrs. Whitehouse, the board approved education items #12-23 by unanimous roll call.
What's next: Curriculum and textbook adoptions apply to the 2025-26 school year; the dual-enrollment programs will be administered according to agreements with the partner institutions. The minutes do not attach sample curricula or textbook adoption justifications beyond the list of titles and course names.
