    The Seneca High School Golden Eagle JV football team looked to avenge the varsity loss to Shawnee as it defeated its rivals by a finalscore of 26-13.

    Principal Nicole Moore has re-cently attempted to get back toemphasizing the fundamentals of teaching at Indian Mills Elemen-tary School to improve studentlearning levels across the boardby implementing a “professionallearning community.”

    It is an ongoing process inwhich educators work collabora-tively to conduct examinationsand action research to achievebetter results for the studentsthey serve. PLCs operate underthe assumption that the key to im-proved learning is continuous

     job-embedded learning for educa-tors.

    “The whole parameter is called

    professional learning communitybecause we are looking to im-prove our teachers’ practice andstudent learning,” Moore said.

    Indian Mills teachers involvedin the PLC will now be guided bya clear vision of what the schoolmust become to help all studentslearn. The community also focus-

    Seneca High School field hock-ey head coach Julie Smith andthe rest of her staff believe inturning a negative scenario into abeneficial experience by generat-ing whatever positive spin they

    can.An example of this has been

    the great deal of awareness andmoney they have raised for breastcancer research over the past fewOctobers.

    “Breast cancer, and cancer ingeneral, has forever altered thelives of many people that I, andmy field hockey coaches, love,”Smith said. “While we can'tchange what has happened, we

    can work to make a positive im-pact.”

    Smith preaches to her studentsthat even in the darkest of times,when they feel most helpless, theyhave the ability to make a positivedifference by channeling paininto motivation.

    In 2011, she started piecing to-

    gether small things to help sup-port breast cancer awareness anyway she could.

    The team started with bakedgoods and temporary tattoos thatended up being a huge hit.

    The tattoos really took off aftershe consulted head football coachBill Fisher, asking if they couldwork with him on a football game.

    The field hockey girls worethem to school and the student

    body immediately joined their ef-forts, buying and wearing them tothe football game.

    That first year, they raisednearly $600 to fight breast cancer,and the experience really openedSmith’s eyes.

    “I saw our Seneca students'willingness to support our cause

    and knew we could do evenmore,” Smith said.

    Smith also wanted to have a“Play for the Cure” game, so shegot together with Shawnee HighSchool field hockey coach ReneePhelps to coordinate a game be-tween the two teams they woulddedicate each year to fightingbreast cancer.

     After having been affected in a multitude of ways by breastcancer, head coach Julie Smith looks to raise awareness

    Unfortunately, the game hasn’talways worked out againstShawnee, due to scheduling orweather providing complications,so Seneca has decided to make it ahome game in October each year.

    The girls wear pink jerseys andgear Smith gets together eachyear for this game.

    “It is a lot of planning. I have to

    order shirts that the differentkids can wear in games, so theyhave to have numbers and names.I always have to worry about apossible mistake when I workwith the distributors, but eachyear, I’ve found that no matterhow exhausting it can be, it al-ways ends up being worth it inthe end after seeing how manypeople get involved,” Smith said.

    In 2012, the team began wearingthese shirts, along with the tat-toos, in their Play for the Cure

    game, and they sold additional tat-toos and shirts to the student body.

    Once again, the football teamdedicated a game to Playing forthe Cure the following year. Stu-dents wore their shirts and tat-toos, and again, the donations in-creased.

    The following year, more fallsports teams started getting in-volved in the movement, and theSeneca youth field hockey pro-gram joined.

    “The past few years have be-come even more meaningful to me,as people I love have suffered fromcancer. Last year, the daughter of aformer co-worker, a girl I coachedwhen she was 8, lost a battle to can-cer at the age of 17. Another girl Icoached when I was an assistantcollege coach lost her mother tobreast cancer,” Smith said.

    Art teacher and freshmancoach at the time Allison Ciavagi-la helped turned Smith’s vision of the logo they use for the shirts

    and other items into a realitywith her creative background.

    Parents also supported theteam’s efforts by making baked

    Smith could not say enoughabout the outpouring of assis-tance she has received from theseoutside sources to help achieve

    better results.They now raise around $12,000

    each year to donate to breast can-cer research funds and get thewhole school and community in-volved in the process.

    As impressive as this is, Smithis just beginning her journey to-ward raising funds and knowl-edge.

    hris Christie was not on the

    General Election ballot last

    Tuesday, but the effect he had

    on the outcome of elections in New

    Jersey was profound.

    At least three state Assembly seats

    switched hands from the Republicans

    to the Democrats last week, with afourth pending official results. If all

    four seats switch to the Democrats, it

    will reduce the GOP’s number of seats

    to 28 out of 80, its lowest total in more

    than 30 years.

    Democrats Joann Downey and Eric

    Houghtaling defeated their Republican

    incumbent opponents Mary Pat An-

    gelini and Caroline Casagrande in the

    state’s 11th District in Monmouth

    County, a district where Republicans

    held both seats since 1992.

    In the 1st District in South Jersey,

    Republican Assemblyman Sam Fioc-

    chi lost his seat. Democrats Bob An-

    drzejczak and his running mate Bruce

    Land defeated Fiocchi and his runningmate Jim Sauro.

    Voter turnout is expected to be low – 

    official results haven’t been released

    yet –because of the lack of a “prime”

    position to vote for, such as governor

    or president. But those who did show

    up to the polls sent a pretty clear mes-

    sage that they are unhappy with the

    way things are going in the Assembly.Many political pundits believe this

    message was aimed directly at Christie

    and the Republican Party, and it’s hard

    to counter that argument.

    Four years ago, Christie was riding

    high as a potential Republican candi-

    date against President Obama. Feel-

    ings were good about Christie in New

    Jersey and, as a result, about the Re-

    publican Party in general.

    Today, after controversies such as

    the George Washington Bridge debacle

    and fight against pensions, the tides

    have changed quite substantially.

    While he’s in the large GOP fieldlooking for the 2016 nomination,

    Christie’s bubble has seemed to burst.

    While the dust has not settled yet, his

    onetime status as a rising star seems to

    have faded, and his party is paying for

    his blunders back home.

    Last week, voters spoke out against

    Christie and his party. In the next few

    months, his party members will have a

    chance to speak out against him again

    in the Republican Primary, if he re-

    mains on the ballot, that is.

    And then, assuming he doesn’t come

    out victorious, he will ride off into the

    sunset as the Garden State will select a

    new governor come 2017.

    in our opinion

    The Chris Christie effectEven though he wasn’t on ballot, the governor had an effect on election outcomes

    Your thoughts

    What are your thoughts on the resultsof last week’s General Election and thepotential message it sends to Gov.Christie? Share your thoughts on this,and other topics, in a letter to the editor.

    It’s incredible how fast another year hasblown by. November, 2015 and it’s almosttime for Christmas already! So, knowingthat, I want to impart a few things going onin Shamong as well as bid you all a fondfarewell.

    As you know from my previous rantingboth in print and in public, our town hassome financial challenges facing it over thenext few years. Our roadways are a bigpart of those challenges. Overall, if we

    were to address every road that requires at-tention, it would cost the township mil-lions of dollars. So, earlier this year, yourtownship committee got together and de-veloped a roads program to deal with thisissue. We have broken the program into

    phases starting withthe micro-surfacingof all roads that arenot yet showing signsof deterioration andfollowing up with therepaving of four tofive streets. Thisphase will most likelybe completed in earlyApril. The next phase

    will see additionalstreets being repavedand so on until allthe roads have beenaddressed.

    The ambulance

    squad has informed the Township Com-mittee that there are a couple of mobileunits that require replacement rather soondue to age. These units are not cheap, andthe committee is seeking the most cost ef-fective route to facilitate these units for theambulance squad.

    So, you may be asking, how are we goingto pay for these expenses? Well, the plan isnot to raise your taxes, so let’s get thatstraight from the start. We are in the midst

    of developing a few revenue-generatinginitiatives that include a cell tower, a ceme-tery and redevelopment zones. The celltower initiative will see the erection of a

    multi-carrier pole located on At-sion Road that will net the town-

    ship more than $30,000 per yearfor 20-25 years when fully leased.The cemetery is an initiative thata few of the farmers in our town

    have requested for the past 10years or so. After four years of doing an exhaustive search for

    the right piece of ground, thecommittee has finally identifiedthe land. We have purchased theformer Cowperthwaite farm

    (minus the residence) and will beusing Green Acres funds for mostof it. There is approximatelyseven acres on Willow GroveRoad surrounded by hedgerowsthat is perfect for a country set-ting oriented cemetery. This ini-tiative will serve the residents of Shamong and the surroundingmunicipalities and will generate

    revenues to help keep taxes inplace and maybe even lowered formany years.

    The last initiative is a two-fold

    one whereby the town will be des-ignating areas as redevelopmentzones. The first two areas are lo-cated on the west side of OakShade and encompass the busi-ness district and a portion of Route 206. These zones will allowthe township to retain importantcommercial neighbors such asOpici Wine Distributors and see

    the construction of new possibili-ties on Route 206 such as a craftbeer brewery and dining hall. Inaddition, the zones allow the

    township to lower real estatetaxes for the proprietors, but thetaxes collected will go to the town-ship for its uses (such as roadwayimprovement, ambulances andother needs in the future).

    We have all seen our taxes risethis year and almost every pennyof that increase was due to ourschools (local and high school)taking the 2 percent cap and morethrough loopholes that we, as tax-payers, cannot stop right now. We

    have seen the amount of moneythe state provides Shamong be re-duced annually, and it will contin-ue to be reduced as the state facesthe pension crisis and other areasof fiscal mismanagement fromthe past.

    I have lost sleep over how weare going to achieve and maintainthe services, aesthetics and saferoadways we have all come to ex-pect to be provided. I know thecommittee cannot control whatthe school board does in its fiscal

    maneuvers, but we can be cre-ative and entrepreneurial in ourendeavors to keep township-ori-ented taxes in check. And, I be-lieve, we have done just that. Thepotential revenues that the town-ship can realize from our initia-tives can more than pay for theneeds and services of the town-ship for years to come.

    And now, I want to thank youall for allowing me the privilegeof being your mayor and servingyou for the past six years. It hasbeen an honor and I wanted thisyear to be one where I could leavethe town in better shape than Ifound it.

    I believe that with the revenueinitiatives, Shamong will be bet-ter off in the years to come than ithas been for awhile. Also, it is myhope that these initiatives willcreate jobs for some of you, aswell as serve you in bigger waysthan you are being servedpresently.

    So, I am leaving public serviceon Dec. 31 of this year and I wishyou all a happy holiday and won-derful new year in 2016. Thankyou, again, for the honor to serveyou.

    es on the teachers continuouslylearning by having professionalconversations about teachingstrategies.

    These teachers are working to-gether interdependently to im-pact their classroom practice inways that will lead to better re-sults for their students and theirschool as a whole.

    PLC has become very popularin schools, so much so that

    schools nationwide have beenlooking to put their own spin on itby renaming the idea to createwhat they believe to be a different“program.” However, these otherprograms oftentimes have thesame core intentions as a PLC.

    Also, the PLC process is not tobe considered a “program.” Itcannot be purchased or imple-mented by anyone other than thestaff itself. It is a continuous,never-ending process of conduct-ing schooling to impact the struc-

    ture and culture of the school andthe practices of the teachers with-in it.

    In early September, Moore no-ticed her special area teachers – gym, arts and library, to name afew – had blocks of time outsideof their specialist space that shewanted to utilize.

    The idea for a professionallearning community was actuallybrought to her by her son who is astudent in the Mt. Laurel schooldistrict. Moore reached out to hercolleagues in Mt. Laurel to get abetter understanding of the con-cept and liked what she heard.

    She decided to start the pro-gram with her oldest studentsand work down as the year wenton and they grasped the conceptbetter.

    “We love our baby kinder-garteners, but they probablyaren’t ready for this yet at thispoint in the school year, so we aregoing to hold off on getting them

    involved until later,” Moore said.Right now, third and fourth

    graders are dropped off by their

    teacher for the hour of PLC inwhich a specialist teacher workswith them on something similarto the class they are being taken

    out of. For instance, if the kidsare dropped off by their socialstudies teacher, they will be work-ing on something social studiesrelated for that hour while theirteacher collaborates with twoother teachers on different learn-ing strategies.

    The first and second graderswill be the next students to partic-ipate when the second markingperiod begins.

    Moore emphasized that she did

    not want to control what teachersworked on in their classrooms forthe assigned hour, so she gavethem some leeway.

    “They really took that and ranwith it, delving into the idea anddeciding what would be best fortheir grade level,” Moore said.

    With the new Journeys readingprogram that was implementedthis year still being new to every-one, it has become a popular topicof discussion in the professionallearning communities.

    “It was a perfect timing to im-plement the PLC to give third andfourth grade the opportunity toget together and discuss Jour-neys and give a sort of weekly as-

    sessment on the program in an at-tempt to make it more userfriendly,” Moore said.

    For the first time, fourth-grade

    teachers are exposed to thirdgrade and visa versa. These cross-curricular connections haveopened the eyes of these teachersto new ideas.

    Moore said the biggest goal isto give teachers the opportunityto engage in professional conver-sations they typically don’t get totake part in because of the lack of time.

    “There are more and more de-mands on these teachers now, but

    there is still the same amount of time in each day,” Moore said. “Isaw this as an opportunity to givethem a little more time to im-prove teaching and learning.”

    The program has been a hitthus far as the teachers all ravedabout it at the last faculty meet-ing.

    “I didn’t realize the magnitudeof this until the last faculty meet-ing,” Moore said. “For a half hour, we just talked about the artof teaching and teacher practices.

    They were totally engaged inwonderful discussions and excel-lent questions. For me, it was re-ally enriching to have these con-versations.”
