Scout's Work Leads to Rebirth of North Plainfield School Garden http://www.mycentraljersey.com/story/news/2015/11/12/somerset-hunterdon-school-news/74229266/ Scout's work leads to rebirth of North Plainfield school garden STAFF REPORT11:01 a.m. EST November 12, 2015 Student achiever news from: Kean University, Salisbury University, SCVTHS , (Photo: Photo Courtesy of North Plainfield Schools) STORY HIGHLIGHTS Bounty from the Garden at West End School SCVTHS science league participants recognized Kean University students forge a shared commitment to service 16 yeal old renaissance teenager invents a portable 3D printed solar paneled charger CONNECTTWEETLINKEDINCOMMENTEMAILMORE Last fall, former West End student, Bobby Bereheiko, volunteered to revitalize the garden at the North Plainfield elementary school as part of his Eagle Scout project. Over a course of a few months Bereheiko, along with fellow boy scout members, installed a new fence and stepping stones and added weed blocking underlay, mulch,, plant beds, and fresh soil. With money raised through fundraisers, as well as donations, Bereheiko was able to purchase supplies. His hard work and dedication to the project earned him his Eagle Scout badge. Thanks to Bereheiko’s commitment to giving back, a new green learning space for students and teachers was created. This past spring, Nancy Lubreski's kindergarten class and Art teacher Lisa Cerulo participated in a collaborative planting project which extended the classroom experience into the newly designed garden. To obtain a first-hand understanding of seeds, the students, assisted by Dr. Mary Louise Durkin, a class mom, planted pumpkin, squash, sunflower, watermelon and mixed garden seeds. During the summer Durkin and children maintained the garden by weeding and watering the plants. Upon arrival in September students were able to see how the seeds sprouted into hearty plants, with the vines wrapping around the garden. The Room 15 graduates were able to pick the large pumpkins, watermelons and sunflowers to put on display at West End School for the harvest season. Submitted by Beth Sobel, Principal Arts High and Arts Middle School Paintings, drawings and photographs created by Middlesex County Arts High and Arts Middle School students will be on display at the Middlesex Public Library, 1300 Mountain Avenue, Middlesex, and at the Woodbridge Public Library, 1 George Frederick Plaza, Woodbridge, for the month of Nov. The exhibit features work completed by gifted and talented students who participated in the Middlesex County Arts High or Arts Middle School. The programs, now in their 36th year, offer advanced arts classes in creative writing, dance, instrumental music, vocal music, acting and visual arts to students from public, private, and home schools in Middlesex County. Students, admitted to the program through audition, are released from their schools one afternoon each week during the spring semester to participate in the various courses that are taught by professional artists.

This program has been made possible in part by a grant from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/ Department of State, a partner agency of the National Endowment for the Arts. Franklin High School Ambassador Nia Kirkwood of Girl Scout Troop #66339, completed her gold award project on Computer Literacy for the Elderly. Kirkwood is under the leadership of troop leader, Michelle Fielder, Co-Leaders, Linda Darby, Denise Davis, Yvette Murray and supported by her family. “It was with great pleasure that I was able to work with seniors of Spring Hills Assisted Living residence located on DeMott Lane in Franklin Township,” the Girl Scout said. Kirkwood’s dedication and compassion to help bridge the gap of the digital divide allowed senior citizens to connect with their families and friends through learning to use email and social media. This project became very popular with the residents. In fact, one resident was elated and told Kirkwood that her grandchildren are going to be “tickled” when they find out she has a Facebook account. Kirkwood’s efforts also included eight (8) 1 ½ hour sessions that generated interest and excitement with the notion of the integration of computer literacy as part of residential life and activities at Spring Hills. Kirkwood was also given a private donation of a computer to donate to Spring Hills to benefit their community. Hillsborough High School The Hillsborough High School RoboRaiders will host a BoroBlast at the school at 466 Raider Blvd. from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 21. The event is for students in grades 4-8 participating in the FIRST Lego League (http://www.firstlegoleague.org/). At BoroBlast, teams from all over New Jersey come and compete with the robots that they have worked hard to create using Legos and other mechanical moving pieces. This is a statewide qualifying competition for the league. Food is provided and admission is free and open to the public. Kean University Kean sophomore Sarah Mack recently traveled to Cambodia, tackling the root causes of human trafficking and poverty in an at-risk community. Her trip was funded in part by Sarah’s Love, the non-profit organization Mack’s classmate and friend Kevin Smith founded in her honor. Bonding over their shared love of people, Mack and Smith were able to make a difference in their communities and the world. “Cambodia was by far my greatest adventure,” said Mack. “I learned that life is better lived outside of my comfort zone.” Mack spent three months in Cambodia teaching English. Drawn to Cambodia initially by the issue of human trafficking, Mack chose to work with the non-profit organization Heart of Hope at a small school located within a predominantly Vietnamese community. Heart of Hope is dedicated to empowering children through education and faith. Mack served in an area where children are at high risk for human trafficking, domestic abuse, gang violence, drug abuse and malnutrition. In an environment rife with poverty and hopelessness, the school’s warm communal atmosphere helped her overcome many challenges. “What helped me to get through it all was the 90-plus missing-teeth-smiles all singing "hello" and offering a high-five to me as I walked through the doorway,” said Mack. Mack’s commitment to service inspired Kevin Smith to form a non-profit organization, Sarah's Love, to support her volunteerism. Sarah's Love helped fund Mack’s missionary journey to Cambodia and also supports The Foodbank of Monmouth and Ocean Counties. Smith later expanded the charity beyond missionary funding to support food drives, clothing drives, Christmas gifts for underprivileged children, and a scholarship for an NJ college student.

    dedication Miss Leis, Mrs. Switras, Mrs. Owsik It is the responsibility of the office staff to serve the faculty and the students. This they do with a willingness and an altruistic spirit which inspire us all. Although the office staff enjoys perhaps the least personal contact with the student, they assist him in every phase of his high school life. From the day you fill out your first schedule card to the day you receive your diploma, they are ever present in the background, guiding and aiding you. For these reasons, and in grateful appreciation of their never failing interest and understanding we respect­ fully dedicate this yearbook to Miss Mildred Leis, Mrs. Virginia Owsik, and Mrs. Vera Switras. The Editors I would like to take this opportunity to offer you my heartiest congratulations and sheerest wishes for the future. You are leaving many wonderful years behind, but stepping into a most exciting part of life. Though past years seem important now, it is the future that holds your place in life. Paraphrasing Louisa May Alcott, Let LIFE be your college; may you be graduated well and earn some honors. Eugene R. Biringer To The Class of '63: On this memorable occasion, I extend my sincerest congratulations and best wishes to the members of the graduating class. It is my fond­ est hope that the years spent at Metuchen High School will be valuable as you assume your roles in our complex society. You are now faced with the responsibility of insuring the continuation and preservation of our culture and way of life.

    Weequahic’s MARQUIS “BO” PORTER, 1990, named new manager of the Houston Astros Major League baseball team By Brian McTaggert, MLB.com With the Houston Astros about to embark on a new era that will include a move to the American League, a new color scheme and new uniforms next season, the team on September 27th revealed the man it wants to lead the players into the new frontier. The Astros named Bo Porter to become their 17th manager at a news conference at Minute Maid Park. The 40-year-old Porter, a resident of Houston, was the 3rd base coach for the Nationals in 2012. The chance to manage the Astros is a dream come true for Porter, whose wife, Stacie, grew up in Houston. The family has lived in the area for many years, and Jim Crane, Houston’s President, said he got several recommendations from Houston-area baseball people. “I'm completely honored,” Porter said in a conference call. “It starts at the top with Jim Crane.
