3. District Mission Statement
"The Bridgewater-Raritan Regional School District (BRRSD), in collaboration with the community, provides a balanced, challenging, and comprehensive education that meets or exceeds New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards and empowers every student to achieve his or her full potential as a lifelong learner and contributing member of society."

4. The Bottom Line:
“What the best and wisest parent wants for his own child, that must the community want for all of its children. Any other ideal for our schools is narrow and [unloving]; acted upon, it destroys our democracy.”
John Dewey
