Who is this “school community” everyone always refers to? For a long time, it was often just another way of saying “res- idents” or referring to people with either kids or a passing interest in the school district. Recent Board of Education meetings, however, seem to reveal that the “school community” is taking on more of an identity, and we think that’s good. Members of the school community have asked the Board to let them take a more active role in the search for a superin- tendent to replace Richard Brodow, who will retire at the end of the current academic year. PTO leaders, past Board members and other interested res- idents are writing letters and speaking up. They are not satis- fied with the way the search firm that has been retained by the Board is working and there are concerns that the firm will pro- duce a single candidate. The firm is reluctant to identify candidates in the event they have not informed their own community that they are inter- ested in leaving. But the Millburn School District community has a right to ask that candidates be identified and meet with representatives of the community, just as it has been done in the past. For the search firm to be overly protective of the candidates’ identities is not in Millburn’s best interests. The school community has a right to know how any can- didate will handle some of the sticky issues that will present themselves in the near future. At a time when the Township Committee has opened up a re-examination of the issue of redevelopment and revitaliza- tion with extensive resident participation, it is only proper that a search for a head school administrator ensure residents are included in the process. We’re pleased with this new “school community.” Letters to the Editor It has a voice, and we hear what it’s saying, loud and clear.

DEER AAA tips Lions and tigers and bears…win the grand prize! to avoid collisions

Deer mating season is underway and AAA New Jersey advises motorists to use caution when dri- ving. When deer begin the “rut” – the time frame between October and December when they mate and breed – they often lose inhibi- tions, resulting in deer-vehicle collisions. New Jersey’s deer population and the state’s busy roadways cre- ate a dangerous mix for motorists. Drivers should take extra caution when driving during the “rut” period. “Deer are most active during dawn and dusk hours, when they are looking for food, shelter or a mate,” said Michele Mount, director of public affairs for AAA New Jersey. “Unfortunately, this timing coincides with motorists who are driving to and from work.” The AAA New Jersey Automo- bile Club offers the following tips to motorists to help avoid deer- vehicle collisions: ■ Slow down. Drive slower in low-light situations — especially at dawn and dusk, and during the morning and evening rush hours.

CROSS COUNTRY MHS boys win third straight county title By Jim Connelly of The Item Keeping the streak going. Millburn High School’s varsity boys cross country team placed five runners in the top nine Oct. 30 to capture a third consecutive Essex County championship at Brookdale Park in Bloomfield. “I’m very impressed with how the team ran,” Miller head coach Jeff Kaye said. “Our training the past two and a-half weeks is paying off. We like where we’re at heading into state competition.” While the Miller harriers main- tained their hold on the county crown, one other streak did come to an end. Tyler Udland was edged in his quest to repeat as county champi- on and run Millburn’s streak of individual crowns to three. Udland, Verona’s Dave Oster and West Orange’s Curtis Richburg were bunched together with about 400 meters to go according to Kaye. Oster and Richburg waged a battle down the stretch, one the Verona harrier won. Oster finished first in 14 :56, eclipsing by two sec- onds Udland’s year-old meet record. Richburg finished second in 14 :58, five seconds in front of Udland. “He was disappointed of course but, as a captain, he always puts the team first and was happy that we were able to once again win the title. Millburn’s Brian Robinson (15:33) and Blake Udland (15:40) placed fourth and fifth respective- ly. John Murphy became the fourth Miller to earn team points.
