Jack of the Red Hearts, directed by Janet Grillo, inaugurated the film festival shining light on the issues of orphanage, family and autism. Grillo joined a panel of young student filmmakers onstage for a Q & A session, discussing the themes of her film and offering advice to young actors. Also on hand for the festival was actor John Capodice, who entertained attendees with stories about working in Hollywood for over fifty years with the likes of Oliver Stone, Sir Laurence Olivier and Jim Carrey. Capodice’s motivational style of speaking and message about opportunities for hungry creators resonated with all of those in attendance. Additionally, the department screened over 40 films from over 400 submissions from various genres, including cinematography, podcast, commercial, talk show and more. The event, sponsored by the HCST Foundation, the Golden Door Film Festival, the Kauffmann Family, JMR Video Equipment Rentals, Epson, and GoPro, was attended by executives from HBO, ABC, NBC, GoPro and HCST families.

We use these public school rankings to generate Top 10 Lists, which show the top-performing schools in five different areas: • Student performance • Low-income student performance • Black student performance • Latino student performance • Performance gains* Each subgroup’s performance score is an average of their reading and math proficiency at the highest tested grade level in that school. In order for a school to be on the Top 10 list for a major subgroup (low- income, black or Latino), the student body it serves must reflect the statewide student demographics for that subgroup. For example, Latinos represent 23 percent of New Jersey's population. For a school to be on the Top 10 list for Latino student performance, therefore, at least 23 percent of its students must be Latino. The statewide student demographics for all subgroups are as follows: 35% = Low-Income 16% = Black 23% = Latino * There are no performance gains at the high school level because reading and math are only tested once) NEW JERSEY TOP TEN SCHOOLS, 2013 JERSEYCAN 3 Top 10 Elementary Schools TOP 10 ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS Traditional public school Performance gains Charter school RANK NAME % POINT CHANGE IN PROFICIENCY Bayonne Board of Education 1 Nicholas Oresko School 20.2 Ewing Township Public Schools 2 Antheil Elementary School 19.0 Passaic City Public Schools 3 Theodore Roosevelt School No.
