    The total amount of grantsawarded was $35,000 $5,000 foreach school.

    Last year, we had some fundsleft that we hadnt given out inour fiscal year, and TheLawrenceville School also gaveus an extra contribution for our20th anniversary, Cohen said.

    Annual Fourth of Julycelebration July 5

    BY HEATHER FIOREThe Lawrence Sun

    In conjunction with Rider Uni-versity, Lawrence Township willhold its annual Fourth of July cel-ebration on Friday, July 5.

    The event will entail a grandfireworks show preceded by a con-cert, said Steve Groeger, superin-tendent of recreation. The raindate is Saturday, July 6.

    As of last week, the townshipraised enough money to put on a

    $15,000 to $17,000 show, whichwould also leave some extra cush-ion, or seed money, for next yearsshow.

    The idea is to not depleteeverything, Groeger said. Ulti-mately, Id like to get to a pointwhere we can do a $20,000 showand still have a sizeable start fornext year.

    The well-known band Kindred

    Spirits, which has previously per-formed at Lawrences annual cele-bration, will provide this yearsmusic. The group is comprised of five experienced musicians whoplay a mix of classic rock and Mo-town. The music will begin at 7:30p.m., followed by the fireworksshow around 9:45 p.m., both of which will take place at the backof Riders campus near the lake.

    Its been held at Rider in ex-cess of 20 years, Groeger said.

    There will also be food for sale.Alumni from Rider set up a standknown as Moms Concessions;they offer things like hot dogs andhamburgers, cold salads, drinksand stuff like that. They did it lastyear, too.

    Since there is no formal seat-ing for the concert and fireworks

    Does smart beget smart? Whatdefines the word smart?And where is the cutoff be-

    tween smart and not-so-smart?The state Department of Education

    is contemplating requiring prospec-tive teachers to be smarter or at least

    to perform better in their own school-ing before they can receive certifica-tion to lead a classroom in New Jersey.

    And why not? Smarter, harder-work-ing teachers should, in theory, resultin smarter, harder-working students.

    It makes sense.But will it make a difference?Currently, the DOE requires teach-

    ers to achieve a grade-point average of 2.75 in college to receive certificationto teach in the state. The departmentis now considering raising that re-quirement to a 3.0, or a B-average.

    Symbolically, it is the right move. C-students are labeled as average.Dont we want the men and womenwho teach our children to be abovethat level? Of course we do. Our teach-ers should perform higher in theirown schooling than the average stu-dent.The future of our kids educationis in their hands, after all.

    Pennsylvania and Delaware alreadyrequire this 3.0-average standard, sowhy should New Jersey be any differ-ent?

    In practice, though, how much of a

    difference will 0.25 points on a GPA re-ally make? Will the DOE really attractsmarter, harder-working teachers?

    Or, conversely, will it be turningaway quality prospective teachers at atime when it is looking for more?

    Its hard to imagine why the DOE

    would spend its time debating whatseems like such a minor proceduralchange, especially since its likely thatmost New Jersey school districts al-ready require their teaches to performabove the average before they arehired.

    If the DOE feels upping the requiredGPA would make a difference, thenmake the change. But its not an issuethat warrants much debate. Just im-plement the change, and move on tobigger and more pressing matters.

    Raising the bar? Just do itDOE sh ould impleme nt higher GPA stan dards for prosp ective teachers

    Your thoughtsWhat should the Department ofEducation require of our prospectiveteachers? Is a GPA minimum the rightmeasuring stick? Or is there somethingelse that would work better? Share yourthoughts through a letter to the editor.
