We read four books throughout the year and actually live-tweeted with two of the authors. For the spring book we read The Chocolate War by Robert Cormier. The Chocolate War is about a private, all-boys school where a secret society of students fights the faculty for control of the building. Unfortunately, for some of the boys, they get caught in the middle. The Book Club met in June to discuss the book and eat some snacks. ANTI-DRUNK DRIVING PROGRAM Big thanks to Mr. Rizk and Det. Lenahan who put together another powerful Anti-Drunk Driving for our seniors. The program, told through the perspective of four of our senior students, Kevin Jones, Jessica Phillips, Dee Spillert and Melissa Novotny, depicted the consequences of drinking and driving, from the party to the wreck to the hospital. Making the event even more powerful, members of the Parsippany Fire Department, Poiice Department, and Rescue Squad, demonstrated what an actual rescue looks like. Special thanks to senior Jake Feldman and the TV Production class for organizing all of the video and recording. JUNIORS SHOCK SENIORS IN POWDERPUFF; LEDONNE SPRINTS TO MVP Congrats to the Class of 2017 on their 20-0 victory over the Class of 2016 in our annual Powderpuff Football Game at Redstock. The juniors were led by the shifty and elusive Salena Le Donne, who scored rushing touchdowns of 68 and 50 yds and added a 70-yard interception TD before halftime. Salena had 128 rushing yards on three carries to earn the MVP of the game. Other Junior standouts included Defensive MVP Gianna Arnaldy (2 sacks, 2 stops), Lilian Tran (3 stops), and Abby Smith (1 sack, 2 stops). The Seniors played a great game, but the big plays hurt them. They were led by Offensive MVP Dee Spillert (62 passing yds, 36 rushing yds, 25 receiving yds), Defensive MVP Meg Wisniewski (2 passed defensed, 1 catch), Julia Krevis (3 stops) and Autum Foley (2 catches, 20 receiving yds). Special thanks to the Coaches, Mrs. Van Wingerden for organizing the event, and Mr. Hurta and Mr. Lazzari for officiating. In other news, the Cheerleaders turned in yet another comedic, entertaining, and mostly disturbing performance at halftime. Fellas, you are brave and I give you credit. I really just hope I can forget the whole thing however… GIRLS LAX HAS PROMISING START Girls Lacrosse 2016 Season: The PHS Girls Lacrosse team finished their inaugural season with a record 2-10. They were led by captain and leading scorer Catherine Lanigan while Megan Carlos and Steph Hernandez led the team in assists. They had their first-ever Varsity Lacrosse win on May 2, 2016 at Hackettstown High School by a score of 10-7. They later won against Boonton High School. The girls really improved all year and there are 21 returning varsity letter winners for next season Defensive MVP: Skyler Schey, Abby Smith, Sophia Leogrande Offensive MVP: Lilian Tran TEAM MVP: Catherine Lanigan CAREERS IN MEDICINE OPEN HOUSE Thanks to Mr. DiBernard and the Careers in Medicine Class for hosting our annual Open House in June.

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.

    Biographicalroster

    Talbot Arts Biographical Roster of Board of Directors and Executive Director Fiscal Year 2021 NANCY S. LARSON, PRESIDENT Nancy Stoughton Larson was born in Evanston, Illinois, and raised in Milwaukee. The arts were always important in the Stoughton household--symphony, theater and museums. She studied both piano and clarinet during her school years and was also an apprentice for a professional summer stock theater company. She earned a degree in nursing from the University of Wisconsin at Madison and worked in that field for 20 years, ending as a director of nursing services. The one constant during that time was her love of music, and when her husband, Bruce, was transferred from the Northwest to the East Coast, she decided to make a career change. Nancy earned a BA in music history and literature and a MS in music education from Towson University, where she afterward taught for 12 years as an adjunct faculty member. One of her most popular teaching assignments was Women in Western Music, and she also taught the History of Baltimore through the Arts and an Introduction to Music History. The Larsons moved to Easton in 2013 and she has since been involved with Chesapeake Music, primarily as co-chair of the International Chamber Music Competition Committee. She is delighted with this involvement as it allows her to support marvelous, talented young musicians as they make their way in the very competitive field of classical music. She is well aware of this challenge as son Eric has traveled this road and is now a member of the Houston Symphony.

Since that time a great many individuals and institutions have assisted in com- pleting the information contained herein. It is impossible to mention each indi- vidual and institution who has contributed to this project. But we take particular pleasure in recording our indebtedness to the staffs of the following institutions for their invaluable assistance: The Frick Art Reference Library, The District of Columbia Public Library, The Library of the National Gallery of Art, The Prints and Photographs Division, The Library of Congress. For assistance with particular research problems, and in compiling biographi- cal information on many of the artists included in this volume, special thanks are due to Mrs. Philip W. Amram, Miss Nancy Berman, Mrs. Christopher Bever, Mrs. Carter Burns, Professor Francis W.
