Dear Residents,

Welcome back to school Mount Arlington! The 2026-2027 school year has officially kicked off and our children are back in the classrooms! As a reminder to drivers, school is back in session and that means STOPPING for school buses! We have a responsibility to our children, our community, and ourselves to make Mount Arlington roads safe for all! Drive slow, drive safe.

As a reminder, Memorial Beach is now closed to swimming. You may still utilize the beach area, but there is NO swimming allowed.

Our September concert was held on September 5th at the Memorial Park Gazebo featuring the Vinyl Trio! What a great concert to close out our Summer Concert Series! We look forward to our fantastic acts next Summer!
