We love how bright and vibrant our Lloyd Bond classrooms are! It’s important to us that our space reflects the joy and love we have in our community – you can see that joy and love in our students’ faces, in the interactions with our teachers and staff, and we are thrilled to share what a beautiful place CICS Lloyd Bond is. Bringing joy and love to learning every day!
It's "Meet the Staff Monday"!!
We start this week off featuring one of the most loyal, humble and hard-working people on our staff.
Name: Mr. Redmond
Title: Campus Monitor
Years in the Educational Industry: 15
Why do you do it?: I grew up with a lot of kids in my family so I have always wanted to work with kids. I love being there for them. Every day I continue to grow and this job has become a part of me.
Mr. Redmond has watched countless students grow up, leave and ultimately bring their children back to Bond. Seeing his familiar face makes them feel so much better placing their precious cargo in our care.
Happy Friday Families!! NJ would love if you could support our CICS Lloyd Bond scholars by buying and selling some Affy Tapple products for our annual fundraiser. Packets have been sent home and there are more available in our main office. Sell your hearts out to help us raise funds to provide activities and incentives to improve your scholar's life at CICS Lloyd Bond. All orders/money due October 10, 2023
At CICS Lloyd Bond, we build a culture of *joyful* learning – encouraging curiosity in our students and instilling lifelong learning skills. Starting class with a fun game of rock, paper, scissors gets students energized and ready to engage in their learning!
