    REPORT TO THE GOVERNOR AND THE NJ STATE LEGISLATURE A DECADE OF SUCCESS 2003 – 2013 2013 03 “We are extremely grateful to the New Jersey State Legislature for supporting the Clean Communities Program since inception in 1986...” T O GOVERNOR CHRIS CHRISTIE AND MEMBErs OF THE NEW JERSEY STATE LEGISLATURE, The Trustees of the New Jersey Clean Communities Council are extremely grateful to the New Jersey State Legislature for supporting the Clean Communities Program since inception in 1986 with the passage of the Clean Communities Act. Funding provides for municipal and county litter abatement programs, litter pick up in state parks, and the statewide program of public information and education that includes a media campaign aimed at sustaining a reduction in litter. We are delighted this year to celebrate a decade of success. Since 2003, more than 400,000 volunteers have picked up and recycled about 700,000 tons of trash from 230,000 miles and 426,000 acres of public property. We have reached 3.5 million people with Clean Communities messages. In 2011, we assumed responsibility for New Jersey’s Adopt-a-Beach program. In 2012, we partnered with the NJ Department of Transportation to create a volunteer Adopt- A-Highway program. We are deeply grateful to the team of county coordinators who developed and annually update the Best Practices in Clean Communities CD. Enclosed is the Report to the Governor and Legislature. The report highlights the activities of the Clean Communities Council from 2003-2013, including specific information on contracts SHW11-006 and SHW12-004 as required by law.

  • 2015-2016 New Jersey High Schools Academic Rankings
    TENAFLY HIGH SCHOOL ACADEMIC RESEARCH 1 2015­2016 New Jersey Public High Schools Academic Rankings C. Bucca, M. Guo, M. Hill­Oliva, J. Laufer, D. Shin, Q. Wang, M. Weiss, J. Xing Class of 2016, Tenafly High School ­ Tenafly, New Jersey ​ June 16, 2016 Abstract The correlation between the AP indices and the average composite SAT scores—for the top 100 New Jersey public schools—was analyzed to determine how indicative the two factors are of student performance. Since these two indices appeared to be highly correlated, according to the calculated R squared value, they were the only factors considered in the novel ranking methodology described in this paper. Using 2015­2016 school data, AP indices were averaged with the SAT indices for the top 100 schools in order to generate a 2015­2016 ranking of those schools. A chi­squared test proved that there was no statistically significant difference among the top 25 schools’ data. These findings suggest that it would be more appropriate to devalue the method of ranking these schools individually, and, instead, switch to a tier ranking system. This paper also goes on to predict the 2015­2016 rankings for the top 30 New Jersey public schools—based on average composite SAT scores—according to the New Jersey Monthly 2014 ​ ​ methodology. Lastly, the correlation between middle school PARCC and high school SAT scores was analyzed. The results showed that they were weakly correlated, which implies that, in general, academic performance of middle school students is loosely associated with that of high school students.
