Community Connections

Links to community info that may be of interest to you and your family

As a public school district, we are often asked to share community information. The Community Connections, page on the Montville Township Public Schools website consists of items and links from across the community that may be of interest to you and your family.

Information found on this page may include special opportunities from within the Montville Township Public Schools district. Community Connections information also often originates with state or local government, such as the, NJ Department of Education, Health Department, Police Department, The Montville Township Drug Awareness Council (DAC), or Montville Township Recreation Department. However, Community Connections may also include information from other organizations that support the community such as The Lakeland Hills YMCA, Pathways for Exceptional Children, Morris County 4-H, the district's many parent organizations, or other community groups.
