February 3, 2012
The CHARACTER EDUCATION word of the month is INTEGRITY.
Congratulations to the following “Students of the Week”.
Tom McLaughlin (nominated by Mr. Caiazza): Tom is always doing the right thing, whether he is being watched or not. As a student-athlete he is always helping and motivating his teammates to work harder. He is simply an all around great student.
Lyndi Taylor (nominated by Ms. DiMaio-Varvaro): Lyndi found a wallet and turned it in. The integrity and concern she showed was remarkable and should be an example to her peers.
These students’ accomplishments do not go unrecognized! Please continue to nominate worthy students.

From the Teen Center:
I have GREAT news, our S.T.A.N.D. Up & REBEL members won Atlantic County's PSA Contest. The PSA contest is sponsored by the NJ Division of Alcohol Beverage Control and the NJ Prevention Network. Students put together a Radio Script for the contest; designed to reduce underage drinking. SoJO 104.9 would like to air their radio script but have the student’s record in the studio. They would also like to give the students a tour of the station.
