Costume
swap
kicks off

Aiming for fun

Bring gently used

costumes to the library,
get another in return
By ZANE CLARK
The Sun

SEAN LAJOIE/The Sun

Abigail, left, and Jessica Bisti of Medford did their best to accurately shoot water and win a prize at the Saint Joan of Arc Parish Carnival in Marlton. This was the first night of the carnival that attracted kids from all over throughout the week to enjoy the rides, games
and food while supporting the church before going back to school.

Halloween may still be about

two months away, but the Burlington County Librarys annual costume swap drop-off starts sooner
than later.
The event ties into National
Costume Swap Day, which helps
families go green as well as
save a little money by allowing
them to trade old Halloween costumes with other parents instead
of having to buy new ones.
Starting Sept. 3, families can
drop off their childrens former,
gently used Halloween costumes
at
the
Evesham
Library,
Pinelands Library, Pemberton Library, Bordentown Library or
county library in Westampton.
For every costume a family donates, it will in return receive one
costume swap ticket. Then, a
month later on Saturday Oct. 3

Before kicking off new year,

LRHSD BOE reflects on 2014-2015
By SEAN LAJOIE
The Sun
Out with the old, in with the
new. As the class of 2019 prepares
to begin its high school career,
and the Lenape Regional High
School District gets set to embark
on another year of excellence, officials looked back at the year
that was during last weeks final

board of education meeting before the school year kicks off.

The class of 2015 was a special
one that has gone off in separate
directions to chase dreams but
not before leaving a distinct mark
on the district.
Students from this class earned
an average score of 1591 on the
SAT. This is noteworthy because,
according to the College Board, a
student with an SAT score of 1550
or higher is more likely to get a Bor better their freshman year of
college.
This is indicative of college
success and completion, district
Director of Programs and Planning Matthew Webb said.
The class of 2015 had a graduation rate of 96 percent. This qualifies as above average for Burlington County, New Jersey and the
nation.

%% % %& $&

Each school has widely celebrated its students college acceptances a number of different
ways, using its websites, videos,
pennants, shirts, tweets and even
ceremonies such as the academic
award night some schools held.
I have to say I am extremely
pleased with our principals and
how they have celebrated their
students college acceptances,
Webb said.
Last school year was also the
best one the district has ever had
in terms of students taking AP
classes and AP tests.
However, academic tests were
not the only thing on which these
students scored highly. Last
years students also scored well
on the harassment, intimidation
and bullying assessment, being

Medford BOE takes look at districts

anti-bullying self-assessment
By SEAN LAJOIE
The Sun
At last weeks Medford Board
of Education meeting, Medford
Township School District Anti
Bullying Coordinator Gale Ferarro was in attendance to review
this years reports.
The board has to create a report every six months for violence and vandalism as well as
harassment, intimidation and
bullying in the schools.
There are three reports conducted each year, one that covers
from July to December, one that
covers from January to June and
an annual report that is due in
September.
This report takes all reports
from the past year into consideration and condenses everything
into one self-report.
There are 78 items in the selfassessment, and the scores for the

district range from 67 to 76, so the

district average score is a 73 out of
78.
This report doesnt focus on
how many total investigations a
district has, instead focusing
more on prevention and what the
district is doing to train its staff
for these situations.
Our counselors go into our
classrooms on a regular basis and
they talk about different aspects
of harassment, intimidation and
bullying, as well as other topics
that relate to this theme, such as
building self esteem, Ferraro
said.
In the fall, the board will get
the report back from the state and
the district score will go on its
website along with the individual
schools websites.
This years self-assessment was
essentially the same as last years.
The number of investigations
this year matched the 14 investi-

gations that took place in 20132014.

I think what we are seeing is
once we start to do the investigation on these things that we suspect may be reported as bullying
incidents, we recognize them as
really more conflict. So its not
one person having power over another; its really two equal parties
typically having an argument or
one person saying some mean
things to someone but not to the
level of the HIB law, Ferarro
said.
Board President Katherine
Santamore asked if this law had
been making a difference around
the state, and Ferarro said it certainly raises awareness to bullying.
It helps students stick up for
themselves and not be a bystander but instead be an upplease see WEEK, page 6

in our opinion

New Jersey has a heroin problem

We need to do something to stop the growing issue

eroin is a dangerous drug. We

all know that. But for a long
time, it was a drug that remained out of the mainstream, reserved, in many peoples minds, for
the inner cities.
Somewhere, somehow, a few years
ago, though, the awful drug made its
way out of tiny inner circles and has
become an epidemic throughout our
state.
The Department of Human Services
Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services released a report in May
that found that in 2014, 28,332 people in
New Jersey were admitted into substance abuse treatment programs with
heroin or another opiate listed as the
individuals primary drug. Thats almost half of the 64,766 people who en-

tered treatment programs last year.

More terrifying is the significant increase in the number of heroin-related
deaths. In 2009, 351 heroin deaths were
reported in New Jersey, according to
the state Department of Criminal Justice. That number jumped to 449 in
2011, up to 591 in 2012, then 741 in 2013
and finally 781 last year.
The state has been trying to curb
this problem by first giving life-saving
Narcan kits to police departments
throughout New Jersey, and then ex-

panding that program to provide the

kits to anyone police or not who
completes training.
Its great that there is a tool that can
help save the life of someone who has
overdosed on heroin. But saving the
life in that instance does not stop that
person from taking the drug.
The next step in our states fight
against heroin must be more educational and treatment programs, readily available to kids at a young age. Can
we build more facilities and expand
drug prevention education?
The way to stop heroin-related
deaths is to prevent people from using
the drug in the first place. Because,
once they use the drug, its an uphill
battle fighting its highly-addictive nature.

stander, someone who reports a case of
bullying if they see it going on, Ferraro
said.
This year, Medford schools had only one
incident Ferarro considered to be at the
level that passed the line as a true bullying
incident.
Medford has met all of its expectations
and continues to exceed in many areas. Its
scores have technically gone down a little,
but that is only because there are so few in-

cidents in the district.

Medford had three instances that had to
be reported to the state from January to
June, two of which were HIB confirmed.
One of these instances was a possession
of a weapon where a student brought a
pocketknife to school by accident. The
young man did not realize he had the
weapon with him, in fact he was the one
who alerted the teachers that he did so, officials said.
He did not bring it in with any malice
or intent to utilize it. However, he did bring
it to the attention of the teacher so she had
to report it, Superintendent Joseph Del
Rossi said.

The Week Of Respect is an annual tradition of Medford schools that is always the
first week of October. This year it will be
held the week of Oct. 5.
School counselors have already worked
on what they will be doing with their students and have all of their activities
planned.
Its nice that the Week Of Respect is
early in the year because it carries this
anti-bullying theme out throughout the
year, board member Michael Etter said.
We dont just do things to prevent bullying during Week Of Respect. There are numerous things that are going on throughout the year as well, Ferarro said.

District grateful for donations

DISTRICT
Continued from page 2
awarded 74 out of 78 potential
points.
Each school has to provide a
self-assessment to the state for review, and once this grade is approved by the state, it has to be
posted on each school's website.
We have an award-winning
harassment, intimidation and
bullying program that we are
proud of, Webb said.
Webb is referring to the districts Step Up and ID program
it plans to continue to build on
through seeking teen input.
Our program encourages
every student to walk the walk
and defend their friends and
classmates if theyre ever harassed or bullied for any reason.
It empowers every student and all
four Lenape high schools to stand
up, step up and be an upstander
not a bystander, District Superintendent Carol Birnbohm said.
For the third consecutive year,
all four schools have been deemed
a no place for hate by the AntiDefamation League Program.
Each school will receive its award
for this accomplishment during
the week of respect in October.
Students shined outside of the
classroom as well, excelling in different things such as community
service. Students from across the
district partook in the fifth annual Senior Day of Service last year.
They also participated in a clothing drive for Goodwill, collecting
an overwhelming 56,373 pounds
of clothes to donate to the organization. Cherokee edged out
Seneca in pounds per student and
was awarded a plaque from Goodwill.
We enjoy a friendly competition, but this is for a great cause,
Webb said.
School officials could not say
enough about their excitement
for this year to get underway. The
new schedule was a particular
highlight on this list of new initiatives.
It was a very long, collaborative process that led the district to
this schedule change, a process

that included 48 teachers, 47 students and 23 editors administrators, custodians, sports staff and
child study team members, to
name a few
The district made it a point last
year to focus on communicating
the schedule and finalizing the
details to be ready to roll when
the 2015-2016 year begins on Sept.
8.
We feel there are several benefits to this new schedule, Webb
said.
Increasing instructional time
with longer periods, increasing
staff collaboration, having a common lunch and reducing academic stress are a few advancements
Webb touched on.
The district was also proud to
announce its participation in the
statewide You Got Brains competition. Fifty-nine New Jersey
schools competed in the fifth annual You Got Brains competition
sponsored by the Brain Injury Alliance of New Jersey.
LDTV won for the third year in
a row and the fourth year in the
last five years of the competition
with its heads up, eyes forward
message.
Distracted driving is one of the
leading causes for brain injuries.
LDTVs message has been displayed on 160 state Department of
Transportation digital message
boards.
The LRHSD is excited about its
new app that will make its debut
this year.
The creation of this app has
been a yearlong process that has
included input from various students. The app includes several
features, such as being able to
customize it to your respective
schools, receiving timely news
from your school, parents being
able to sign up for grade alerts,
parents being able to deposit
money in their childs lunch accounts and parents being able to
view the four-day rotating schedule.
This is just scratching the surface of what this app can do,
Webb said.
As of Aug. 24, there were 4,700
downloads to date, and the board
anticipates that number to rise.
Another project that will be de-

buting in all four schools this

year is the Project Lead The Way
Program, which was only implemented at Lenape and Seneca last
year. It is a national program that
develops STEM curriculum in
high schools.
STEM is where jobs are today
and where the growth is going to
be, Webb said.
Lastly, the district wanted to
show its gratitude in regard to donation numbers from last year totaling almost $88,000. This adds to
the nearly $2.5 million that has
been donated to the school district since it started keeping track
of donations in 2007.
A large chunk of these donations have gone to things such as
turf fields at Shawnee and Cherokee, and numerous driving simulators for drivers education classes at all four of the high schools.
These donations are publicly
recognized at the monthly board
meetings.

10 THE MEDFORD SUN SEPT. 28, 2015

Drop off costumes until Oct. 3

DROP
Continued from page 1
from 10 a.m. 2 p.m., families can
visit any one of the participating
libraries and trade their ticket or
tickets for any of the costumes
donated by another family.
Each family who participates
will be able to get a new Halloween costume for their child or
children without having to spend
additional money, and those families gain the satisfaction of knowing they did their part in helping
the environment.
Those who participate in the
costume swap do not need to be a
resident or library cardholder to
participate in a particular librarys swap event, and residents
are encouraged to come to the
Oct. 3 swap with their children.
The idea to hold a swap in the
Burlington County Library Sys-

RAY OF HOPE FUND

tem started about five years ago

at the Pinelands Library with
youth services librarian Danielle
Haubrich.
In the past, Haubrich had been
speaking with a parent about how
expensive Halloween costumes
were becoming and how a swap at
the end of the year would benefit
families, so Haubrich decided to
try the idea at the library.
Its a great way to celebrate a
green Halloween and save a little
money this year, Haubrich said.
Haubrich said the first event
was a success and had great feedback from parents, so it continued and has now spread to five of
the BCLS branches for this years
event.
The parents are happy to be
able to get some use out of their
childrens old costumes that
would otherwise just be sitting in
a drawer or box, and they also get
something new without spending
any money, so it works well both
ways.
Costume drop-offs will be ac-

cepted at the participating

branches up to the day of the
swap on Oct. 3.
According to the rules of the
swap, the costumes dropped off
must be in good condition and
must be appropriate for ages infant to teenager.
The libraries also remind families that the costumes taken from
the swap do not necessarily have
to be used for Halloween, as many
children enjoy wearing costumes
during dress-up and playtime allyear round.
Also, no costume donated to
the costume swap will go to
waste. As in previous years, costumes that remain after the swap
will be stored and saved for the
following years swap.
For more information about
the costume swaps, visit any of
the participating BCLS branch
websites at www.bcls.lib.nj.us/
and choose the appropriate Evesham, Pinelands, Pemberton,
Bordentown or Westampton section.
