INSIDE THIS ISSUEBOE meeting

Resolution changes start timefor schools. PAGE 4

By SEAN LAJOIEThe Sun

It is not every day that some-one from a small town such asTabernacle gets recognized by amulti-billion-dollar global maga-zine that is read by 23 million peo-ple each week.

This may be why Seneca seniormidfielder Madison Schultethought her mom was pulling afast one on her during her seniortrip when she broke the news thatshe was selected to be Sports Il-lustrated’s High School Athlete of the Month.

“Honestly, when my momtexted me, I totally thought shewas messing with me,” Schultesaid. “It was crazy. I did not ex-pect anything like that.”

Sports Illustrated got wind of Schulte’s story early in the sea-son, and she was put in the run-ning with numerous high schoolathletes across the country to win

this award.SI representatives came to

Seneca for two days to conduct in-terviews with people close toSchulte and get some footage of her playing and coaching.

Schulte’s passion for the gamecannot be satisfied by the count-less hours that go into playing ahigh school sport; she also coach-es a U11 girls’ team on the side.

While Schulte and her parents

had a bit of natural nerves goinginto the interview with SI, the lit-tle girls had no problem grabbingthe microphone.

“All of the girls were so excited.They lined up after practice ask-

ing if they could all talk,” Schultesaid.

As for the high school team,they tried to keep the atmospherevery stern to make sure theycame off as a group that was fo-

cused on nothing but winninggames. It’s a task that can betricky at times for a silly groupthat likes to keep it light at prac-tice and focus on having as muchfun as they can.

“My coach and I were crackingup, we didn’t know what to do,”Schulte said. “We did have a real-ly good practice, though. Maybewe should wear microphonesmore often!”

You’ll never catch anyone get-ting down on a teammate withthis team, even when they have abad game. It’s constant positivityfrom every direction, and itseems to be working.

After being awarded a three-seed in the playoff bracket due tothe success it had in the regularseason, the team is now cruisingand is only two victories awayfrom being crowned Group 3champions.

“It’s been so much fun. That’sreally the only word I can use todescribe it,” Schulte said.

However, it has not alwaysbeen fun for Schulte.

After exploding onto the sceneher freshman year, earning a spoton varsity and leading the team

in scoring, she was getting seri-ous attention from a number of big-time college programs.

Having her early teenage yearsbeing dominated by visiting cam-puses and letters from collegecoaches overwhelmed her. Shewas being recruited, and she did-n’t even know if she wanted to berecruited.

SKIP HARRIS/Special to The SunMidfielder Madison Schulte won the Sports Illustrated Player of the Month for May after returning to theteam for her senior year. She led the varsity team in scoring her freshman year and then abruptly decid-ed to part ways with the game that she’d been playing since the third grade.

Lenape district going mobile

By MIKE MONOSTRAThe Sun

The days of searching for acomputer or clicking through a

series of web pages just to findgrades or a sports schedule areover in the Lenape Regional HighSchool District.

The district recently released anew mobile app for students, staff and parents. The LRHSD MobileApp can be downloaded for free atthe iTunes App Store or onGoogle Play.

John Donaldson, director of television services for the dis-trict, played a big role in the de-velopment of the app. Donaldson

said the district recognized howstudents and parents are on theirmobile devices more than everand were looking for ways to ac-cess information easier andfaster.

“With students and parents al-ways on the go, the developmentof a mobile app was the next logi-cal step in being able to providethem with the information that

they need at anytime, from any-where,” Donaldson said.

The app brings many of thefeatures found on the districtwebsite to users’ phones. Every-thing from news updates, socialmedia posts and athletic sched-ules were included.

Donaldson said one of the mostimportant features is the abilityto view individual informationsuch as grades.

“One of the most powerful fea-tures of the LRHSD app is the

ability for students and parents toaccess mobile-friendly views of grades, assignments and cafeteriabalances,” he said.

The app also allows the user tocustomize what they see on theirphone. Users can select fromwhich high schools they wouldlike to see news.

Tabernacle Elementary Schoolstudents will be pleased to hear

they will be able to stay in bed foran extra 15 minutes each morn-ing after the Board of Education’smost recent resolution waspassed to change the start timesfor both schools in the district.

The elementary school willnow begin at 8:45 a.m. and close at3:15 p.m., while the middle schoolday will start 15 minutes earlierat 7:45 a.m. and end at 2:15 p.m.

“Just like the high school’s re-cent time changes, ours were im-plemented to capture the lost in-

structional time,” Superintend-ent George Rafferty said. “We’relooking to improve efficiency andenhance our children’s educa-tion.”

This idea has been in the worksfor multiple years as the districthas been closely monitoring buspickup and drop-off times.

District transportation super-visor Rob Hogan has been at the

core of this proposal.“Nine of our 14 routes from the

middle school are longer than 30minutes, so it’s not possible forour drivers with our buses to getthe children to school on time,and it’s not possible for them toget back to the elementary schoolto pick them up on time,” Hogansaid at the previous board meet-ing.

Times needed to be changed atboth schools to allow safe time in-tervals between the middle and

elementary school bus routes.This bus system of 15 drivers

transports 379 students daily toand from OMS and 390 studentsfor TES.

The district’s furthest busroute is 29.5 miles roundtrip, andit is one of the routes servicedfour times a day, twice for OMS

MAY 27–JUNE 2, 2015 –THE TABERNACLE SUN 5

Amiano & Son Construction a small family run remodeling and design contractor located in Tabernacle, NJ recently

joined many of our Nation's finest in the industry. With the ever debatable issue of reliable, quality contractors

going on in the Tri-State market it was an honor to achieve this prestigious award.

Award winning NJ remodeling firm is recognized as of one of nation's Big 50 Remodelers

Tabernacle, NJ May 13, 2015 – Lou & Wendy Ami-

ano owners of Amiano & Son Construction, LLC

, has been selected by REMODELING magazine

to join the REMODELING Big50. The Big50

awards were presented at a gala dinner at the Re-

modeling Leadership Conference in Washington,

DC, on May 7, 2015. The 2015 Big50 winners arefeatured in the May issue of REMODELING, a

national trade publication read by more than

130,000 professional remodeling contractors, with

longer profiles of the winners posted on the RE-

MODELING website, remodelingmag.com.

Each year since 1986, the REMODELING Big50

inducts 50 owners of remodeling companies that

have set exceptionally high standards for profes-

sionalism and integrity through exemplary busi-

ness practices, craftsmanship, and impact in

their community or the industry at large. Big50

remodelers run successful, often growing, com-

panies of various sizes that have taken the leadin raising industry standards.

The Big50 selection process has become increas-

ingly rigorous in recent years, and the result, RE-

MODELING editors believe, is one of the

strongest classes to date. “Uniting the 2015 in-

ductees are high standards and a determination

to excel — taking the opportunity to build effi-

ciencies into their systems and processes— en-

suring that they are poised to meet their sales,production, and customer-service goals and con-

tinue to thrive,” according to REMODELING.

“We are very honored to receive this distinction,

we have worked hard to achieve recognizable suc-

cess in the industry” says Lou Amiano , Owner

of Amiano & Son Construction. “The award rec-

ognizes excellence and leadership, and we are

privileged to be named to this select group of re-

modelers.”

REMODELING editors, columnists, industry

leaders, and the companies themselves make the

nominations each year. Following a lengthy eval-

uation and interview process, the editors selectthe 50 individuals who exemplify the best of the

industry that year, and who have something to

offer other remodelers in proven practices.

REMODELING, published by Hanley Wood, is

the leading publication in the home improvement

industry. REMODELING has and continues to be

the indispensable tool that remodelers cannot do

without—delivering the business know-how,

product and technical information that home im-provement pros need to help make smart deci-

sions that will shape their project success.

Amiano & Son Construction is a family run de-

sign/build remodeling firm. The company

boasts ownership who practiced the trade since

1968. The company is currently run by husband

and wife team Lou & Wendy Amiano. Lou &

Wendy offer clients the unique experience of

"getting it." They get the entire process of remod-

eling and what it takes to get to a mutually agree-

able remodeling project for clients. "Planning is

the most important part of the design/build

process, which is what we specialize in. We takeour clients through the entire process in one con-

venient location.

n just a few short weeks, high

school seniors throughout New

Jersey will be wrapping up their

final days of class, taking their final

high school tests and walking onto

their high school field one more time

for graduation.

It’s an exciting time in the life of ayoung man or young woman. The final

weeks of high school, the graduation

ceremony, the hugs and congratula-

tions following, the celebrations that

will last throughout the summer and

the packing for, the drive to and the ar-

rival at college are memories gradu-

ates will remember fondly.

To all the grads out there, while you

may want to rush these last days so

school can be out for summer, and so

high school can be out forever, remem-

ber to savor every remaining moment.

This may not mean much to you

right now, but there are experiences

you will have in these final days, these

next few months, that you will neverreplicate again. There are people you

will graduate with – some friends,

some acquaintances, some whom you

grew up with – whom you may never

see again.

There are some whom you are close

with now who you will grow apart

from over the years, and there are

some whom you will grow closer to asyour lives change.

Those wistful days of no responsi-

bility will be behind you. Soon, you

will be on your own. You will have the

freedom to eat pizza for breakfast, stay

up until 4 a.m., take a nap in the mid-

dle of the day, go berzerk at a sporting

event wearing your college’s colors

and skip a class if you want to – note:

we don’t recommend that last one.

The label “high school student”

came with a lot of restrictions on your

freedom, but it also gave you a get-out-

of-jail-free card, or cards. Once gradua-

tion is over, that label goes away. Allfreedoms given to an American adult

will be yours.

But so, too, will all the consequences

of your actions. The decisions you

make – from as serious as “do I study

for this test?” to “should I eat another

burrito?” – will all have results that

will affect your life. It’s a lot of respon-

sibility. It’s a good thing, for sure, but

it can also be a scary thing, becoming

an adult.

So, while you still have the option,

live life as a “kid” one last time. Savor

these last days of high school. And be

confident that you will do just fine.

Good luck and congratulations!

Writer: Some Tabernacle parentsneed to do their homework

There is a small but vocal group of Tab-ernacle residents, primarily some parents,who are upset with the Tabernacle Boardof Education and the superintendent,George Rafferty, for perceived inaction orwrongful actions. They are so angry andfrustrated that they have taken to yellingaccusations in public meetings, and haveposted “Fire George Rafferty” signs

throughout town. Unfortunately, many of these people seem to be so horribly unin-formed of the issues they are so passionateabout that it would be laughable if itweren’t so sad and dangerous.

In an effort to try to help educate the

public on some of the issues that they areso misinformed of, one resident at the May11 meeting asked the board to pose fourquestions to their attorney who was pres-ent (historically their attorney has notbeen at their public meetings). The ques-tions were: 1) What are the website re-quirements, if any, under the SunshineLaw for school boards, especially as it re-lates to posting of agendas prior to meet-ings? 2) Explain why the board isunable/unwilling to discuss personnel

matters in public? 3) If a non-tenuredteacher is not offered a spot next year bythe superintendent, what is the process bywhich that decision can be reviewed by theboard? 4) If a board were to break a con-tract with a superintendent, what are the

potential financial and legal ramificationsto the board and the district?

Unfortunately, the board president de-clined to ask the attorney these questionsat the time. If he had, quite a bit of thepublic nonsense could have been stopped.Instead, the uninformed public cheered onthe resident in question, thinking he wastrying to help their cause.

In brief, the answers to these four ques-tions are as follows:

1) Unlike some other entities such as fire

districts, school boards aren’t required tomaintain a website at all, let alone arethere requirements for its content. Peopleclaim on Facebook that the board is violat-

and twice for TES.The busing computer program

the district uses puts the optimaltime for a bus completing that

trip at 39 minutes, beyond the oldhalf-hour difference in middleand elementary school starttimes.

This program also doesn’t fac-tor in specific variables such astraffic, weather and children whoare a little sluggish in the morn-ing and take a bit longer than ex-pected to get to the bus stop.

“When you add inclementweather, half-day schedules aswell as early dismissals to theequation, it is not possible for us

to maintain timely schedulesgiven our present bus routes,”Rafferty said.

A secondary driving force be-hind the lost instructional timewas the safety, given the time in-tervals between bus routes.

“Drivers are very, very consci-entious about getting the childrento school safely and on time,”Hogan said. “There was a driverupset because she was late due tothe dirt road she was driving onbeing covered with ice and sheonly had 30 minutes.”

Despite mixed responses to thechange, the administration andthe board of education assuredparents they always aims to en-sure the most educationally bene-ficial and safe learning environ-ment for all students.

“Whenever the school districtidentifies areas for improvementthat will benefit students as wellas improve teaching and learn-ing, the district will always take

action,” Rafferty said.

ing law by not publishing agen-das early enough; in fact, theboard isn’t required to publishthem at all.

2) New Jersey law preventsboards from talking about person-nel matters without taking cer-tain steps first, including issuingthe employee a Rice notice first,and offering the employee an op-portunity to decide whether thediscussion should be public orprivate. If the employee is not

properly noticed, the board is notallowed to make any statementswhatsoever, no matter how muchthey may or may not want to. Sowhen the public brings up em-ployee/personnel matters, theboard has no choice but to remainsilent or face a lawsuit.

3) One of the louder issues of late, the head of the special edu-

cation department, Mr. Tirico,has not been asked to come backnext year.

The public has been quite vocalon insisting that the board over-

turn Rafferty’s decision. Howev-er, the only vehicle the board hasat its disposal is to hold a Donald-son hearing, which Mr. Tirico hasto ask for. To my knowledge, hehas not yet done that. Therefore,the board’s hands are tied – thereis nothing the board can do onthat until Mr. Tirico asks for theDonaldson hearing. No amount of yelling at the board will changethat.

4) As I stated, there are signs

around town to “Fire George Raf-ferty.” However, it’s not that sim-ple. Rafferty is under contractwith the board. Assuming he hasnot broken his end of the contractand has not broken the law ordone anything else that actuallywarrants termination, to fire Raf-ferty would be a breach of con-tract, putting the board and the

district at risk of severe financialand legal ramifications. The pub-lic has been vocal against theboard having raised taxes just tokeep services at a constant level;

how would the same members of the public feel if the board had tocut services to defend against acostly breach of contract suitbrought on by their own de-mands?

There are many other exam-ples where this vocal minoritymakes noise and general state-ments without specificity orknowledge. It is obvious thatthese people need to do theirhomework and actually under-

stand the implications of whatthey are arguing for, and learnwhere, when and why the board issimply unable to take the desiredaction. Most importantly, I chal-lenge all Tabernacle residents,come November, to ensure thatthey elect people who are actuallyknowledgeable on the issues.

The school district began theprocess in February 2014.

Focus groups consisting of par-ents, students and staff were puttogether to help give the develop-ment team ideas on what to put inthe app.

“The response from the stu-dent, teacher and parent focus

groups was enthusiastic and fullof great ideas,” Donaldson said.Donaldson said the district also

spoke with several app develop-ment companies and other schooldistricts that implemented simi-

lar apps. The district began devel-

oping the app in the summer of 2014 and has spent most of the2014-15 school year perfecting it.Recently, select members of theschool community got the chanceto test the app ahead of the re-lease.

The district used the feedbackfrom beta testing to make furtheradjustments.

“Over recent months, a smallgroup of students, parents andstaff have been beta testing the

app in advance of the public re-lease,” Donaldson said.Donaldson said the district has

received positive feedback fromthe school community. In the firstweek of its release, the app re-

ceived more than 3,300 down-

loads.Donaldson said the app will

continue to develop over time,and welcomed feedback and sug-gestions from the school commu-nity.

“We anticipate that as staff,students and parents becomemore familiar with the app thatthey will provide us with new andinnovative ways to make the al-ready powerful app even better inthe future,” he said.

The district has created a tuto-rial video and webpage to guideusers through the app. The videoand other information about theapp can be found atwww.lrhsd.org/App.

“I felt like everything was hap-pening too fast. I needed moretime to think about things, I justneeded a break,” Schulte said.

So that is exactly what she did.Going into her sophomore year

as an all-conference midfielder,Schulte abruptly decided to hangup her cleats and walk away fromthe game.

Taking a step back reallyhelped her find herself and be alot happier. Nevertheless, somethings were just not the same.

Fellow senior Megan Drumand Schulte have been insepara-ble since they met on their third-grade lacrosse team.

“It was very weird when springcame around and I would look tohang out with her after schooland then I’d remember she had a

game or practice,” Schulte said.Schulte’s coach Morgan

Crothers made it an ongoing

habit to jokingly ask her formersuperstar if she would be comingto tryouts.

However, one day before theseason this spring, Schulte gaveher a different answer and decid-ed she would be in fact attendingtryouts.

“It was just a perfect opportu-nity to get involved with peoplethat I’ve been around for so longthat I’m not going to be seeingmuch of next year as we all go off to different colleges,” Schultesaid.

Though she focused solely onbringing the fun back to the gameshe had played all of her life, it ishuman nature to occasionallywonder what could have been.

“The thought does run throughmy mind. What else could havehappened and where would I betoday had I stayed with the team

my sopho-more year andkept playing,”

Schulte said.“But overall, Idon’t have anyregrets. I’mstill going tothe school thatI wanted to goto all along.”

Schulte willbe attendingPenn State in the fall. Though sheis not sure if she will be playingon the team, she will definitely bestaying involved with the sport,whether through intramurals,clubs or even coaching.

After considering entering thebusiness field, she quickly decid-ed it wasn’t for her.

“I’m not the type of personalityfor sitting in an office all day orgoing from meeting to meeting,”Schulte said. “I’m looking atteaching or coaching at a highschool level or a younger level.”

High school and college sportscan be very demanding with the

number of hours it requires of athletes.

“Maddy has been a pleasure tocoach over the two years she hasplayed for Seneca,” Crothers said.“She is extremely coachable andwill do whatever it takes to putforth her best effort for everygame.”
