Graduation Date Change

Please Take Note of This!

The date of graduation for the Class of 2008 has been changed from Saturday, June 7, 2008 to Saturday, June 14, 2008. It will still be held at 7:00 PM.

State law requires that seniors attend high school no less than 5 days from the last day of school for undergraduates.  With the excessive snow days, this prompted our school board to formally change the date - which they did at the February 14 board meeting.

We apologize for any inconvenience and we hope that this early notification will allow relatives and friends of our seniors to make any neceesary changes in travel plans.

Growing Up Online

“Growing Up Online” a recently aired documentary discusses the perils and promise of living a life on-line.

... the “Frontline” franchise has never been interested in promoting panic at the expense of good reporting, and “Growing Up Online” quickly establishes itself as an even-handed look at the generation gap between teenagers who have never known life without e-mail and their parents who are all-thumbs with text messaging.

- Alan Sepinwall, The Newark Star-Ledger (N.J.)

A video well worth viewing.

Regional Planning Committee

The Regional Planning Committee or RPChas been established to produce a plan for the consolidation of the schools in Dresden, Farmingdale, Hallowell, Monmouth and Richmond.  While everyone would agree that this represents a significant challenge, we feel that such a move could benefit our schools.

This plan will provide a framework upon which we can build a collaborative, mutually beneficial and excellent yet cost-effective school system and the very best educational environment for our children in the years to come.

Visit the RPC section of our web site here.

Sir Ken Robinson: Do schools kill creativity?

Sir Ken Robinson makes an entertaining (and profoundly moving) case for creating an education system that nurtures creativity, rather than undermining it. With ample anecdotes and witty asides, Robinson points out the many ways our schools fail to recognize—much less cultivate—the talents of many brilliant people. “We are educating people out of their creativity,” Robinson says. The universality of his message is evidenced by its rampant popularity online. A typical review: “If you have not yet seen Sir Ken Robinson’s TED talk, please stop whatever you’re doing and watch it now.”

Astrophysicist Replaces Supercomputer with Eight PlayStation 3s

From Wired News:

“Suffering from its exorbitant price point and a dearth of titles, Sony’s PlayStation 3 isn’t exactly the most popular gaming platform on the block. But while the console flounders in the commercial space, the PS3 may be finding a new calling in the realm of science and research.

Right now, a cluster of eight interlinked PS3s is busy solving a celestial mystery involving gravitational waves and what happens when a super-massive black hole, about a million times the mass of our own sun, swallows up a star.”
