Good evening,
The Greater Egg Harbor Regional High School District is aware that one of our Oakcrest students was involved in an accident this evening after departing an athletic bus. At this time, we are working with both Hamilton Township Police and the transportation company to gather all information. Our thoughts, prayers, and positive energy are with the student and their family. There is no additional information available at this time.
We will have counseling services available at Oakcrest High School in the morning; any student who feels as though they need assistance, should see either our Guidance staff, a member of our Child Study Team, or any of our professional counseling services.
Should additional information become available, we will update our Oakcrest Community.
Thank you
James M Reina
Superintendent,
Greater Egg Harbor Regional High School District
