    State of New Jersey 2014-15 41-1870-050 OVERVIEW HACKETTSTOWN HIGH SCHOOL WARREN 701 WARREN STREET GRADE SPAN 09-12 HACKETTSTOWN HACKETTSTOWN, NJ 07840 1.00 The New Jersey Department of Education (NJDOE) is pleased to present these annual reports of School Performance. These reports are designed to inform parents, educators and communities about how well a school is performing and preparing its students for college and careers. In particular, the School Performance Reports seek to: Focus attention on metrics that are indicative of college and career readiness. Benchmark a school's performance against other peer schools that are educating similar students, against statewide outcomes, and against state targets to illuminate and build upon a school's strengths and identify areas for improvement. Improve educational outcomes for students by providing both longitudinal and growth data so that progress can be measured as part of an individual school's efforts to engage in continuous improvement. While the New Jersey School Performance Reports seek to bring more information to educators and stakeholders about the performance of schools, they do not seek to distill the performance of schools into a single metric, a single score, or a simplified conclusion. Instead, the intention is that educators and stakeholders will engage in deep, lengthy conversations about the full range of the data presented As educators know well, measuring school performance is both an art and a science. While the School Performance Report brings attention to important student outcomes, NJDOE does not collect data about other essential elements of a school, such as the provision of opportunities to participate and excel in extracurricular activities; the development of non-cognitive skills like time management and perseverance; the pervasiveness of a positive school culture or climate; or the attainment of other employability and technical skills, as many of these data are beyond both the capacity and resources of schools to measure and collect well.

    dedication Miss Leis, Mrs. Switras, Mrs. Owsik It is the responsibility of the office staff to serve the faculty and the students. This they do with a willingness and an altruistic spirit which inspire us all. Although the office staff enjoys perhaps the least personal contact with the student, they assist him in every phase of his high school life. From the day you fill out your first schedule card to the day you receive your diploma, they are ever present in the background, guiding and aiding you. For these reasons, and in grateful appreciation of their never failing interest and understanding we respect­ fully dedicate this yearbook to Miss Mildred Leis, Mrs. Virginia Owsik, and Mrs. Vera Switras. The Editors I would like to take this opportunity to offer you my heartiest congratulations and sheerest wishes for the future. You are leaving many wonderful years behind, but stepping into a most exciting part of life. Though past years seem important now, it is the future that holds your place in life. Paraphrasing Louisa May Alcott, Let LIFE be your college; may you be graduated well and earn some honors. Eugene R. Biringer To The Class of '63: On this memorable occasion, I extend my sincerest congratulations and best wishes to the members of the graduating class. It is my fond­ est hope that the years spent at Metuchen High School will be valuable as you assume your roles in our complex society. You are now faced with the responsibility of insuring the continuation and preservation of our culture and way of life.
