  • Final ERI Draft
    Deptford Township Environmental Resource Inventory DRAFT April 2010 The Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission is dedicated to uniting the region’s elected officials, planning professionals and the public with the common vision of making a great region even greater. Shaping the way we live, work and play, DVRPC builds consensus on improving transportation, promoting smart growth, protecting the environment, and enhancing the economy. We serve a diverse region of nine counties: Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and Philadelphia in Pennsylvania; and Burlington, Camden, Gloucester and Mercer in New Jersey. DVRPC is the official Metropolitan Planning Organization for the Greater Philadelphia Region — leading the way to a better future. The symbol in our logo is adapted from the official DVRPC seal, and is designed as a stylized image of the Delaware Valley. The circular shape symbolizes the region as a whole. The diagonal line represents the Delaware River and the two adjoining crescents represent the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the State of New Jersey. DVRPC is funded by a variety of funding sources including federal grants from the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Federal Transit Administration (FTA), the Pennsylvania and New Jersey departments of transportation, as well as by DVRPC’s state and local member governments. The authors, however, are solely responsible for the findings and conclusions herein, which may not represent the official views or policies of the funding agencies. DVRPC fully complies with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and related statutes and regulations in all programs and activities. DVRPC’s website may be translated into Spanish, Russian and Traditional Chinese online by visiting www.dvrpc.org.

  • Social Studies Curriculum Guide
    Diocese of Paterson Social Studies Curriculum Guide Historical Understanding Geographical Understanding Democratic Citizenship Paterson Diocesan Schools 777 VALLEY ROAD CLIFTON, NEW JERSEY 07013 (973) 777-8818 SERVING PASSAIC, MORRIS and SUSSEX COUNTIES OFFICE OF THE SUPERINTENDENT May 1, 1999 Dear Friends, I am pleased to present the newly designed Social Studies Curriculum Guide that represents the collective energies and collaborative efforts of a group of committed Catholic educators dedicated to academic excellence. The Guide reflects the curriculum for the new millennium presenting content, concepts, assessment techniques and teaching strategies that enliven the classroom for the students. It also helps the students realize that what they have learned in the school is both meaningful and valuable and can be combined with life experience in the community. Recognizing that social studies education is the study of people and their relationships with their social and physical environments, the knowledge, skills, and values developed in social studies helps students to know and appreciate the past, to understand .the present and to influence the future. Therefore, social studies in the Catholic school setting can provide students with the opportunity to acquire knowledge, skills and values to function effectively within their local and national society which is enmeshed in an -interdependent and global world. The Social Studies Curriculum Guide promotes loyalty and love for country, an appreciation of the Church's role in society and it prepares students to participate intelligently in public affairs and social justice issues. Progress, if it is to continue, will not happen by itself; we must bring it about. The values we expound today will have a profound impact upon tomorrow's world.
