Township school strategic planning starts gathering public input.
Wednesday's public input session for the Warren Township schools strategic plan posed a seemingly simple question: what does the community value here? That question by program leader Carol Moldan was at the heart of the night's session at Warren Middle School, which included about 40 residents participating in a table-hopping brainstorm session working to get a clearly defined brand for Warren schools. Moldan and fellow "recovering school superintendent" Charles Kuzminski led the participants in the program, using techniques aimed at helping the participants develop focused answers to such questions as; The first task for the participants was to think of words that describe the district ("Blue Ribbon school district," "Meeting individual …

Move will reduce amount of proposed tax increase by $19.
After a lengthy discussion of options, and some contentious public comments, the Warren Township Board of Education approved changes to the proposed 2012-2013 budget to include computer purchases, funds for required teacher evaluations and a reduction in the amount to be raised by taxes, at its meeting Tuesday night at Central School. The changes followed the announcement last week that the district would receive about $248,000 more than the proposed budget anticipated from the state. The board discussed, and ultimately approved, a suggestion from its Finance Committee to approve using $120,000 for three new computer carts (at a cost of $30,000) and to pay for the expected costs of implementing a new state-required teacher evaluation …

Parental involvement and supervision of your children’s daily lives is just as important “online” as in the “real world.” Get to know the internet sites and services your children use to alert you to any potential problems that may occur with their use. Spend time with your child while they are online and find out if they have a free web-based email account and if they are using social networking sites. If you are concerned about your children’s online activities, talk to them and seek out the help of school counselors or other professionals. If your child confides in you about viewing inappropriate material or violating one of the safety rules, try not to overreact. It is best to work with your child to learn from what happened and to …

Janet Milita meets with Mary Lou Cebula before taking the helm at school.
The classrooms are empty, and the walls in the principal's office are bare, as long-time Central School Principal Mary Lou Cebula ends her career in education. But before she goes, she has one final student: her replacement, Janet Milita, of Annandale. Milita was hired Monday by the Board of Education, scheduled to begin Aug. 29 at the end of her current contract with the Hope Township School District, in Warren County.

The bottom line is that if parents REALLY want to keep their kids safe online, they need to know what they are doing on the computer, and what is happening in their online lives. Blocks and filters are easy to get around, and talking alone will get you nowhere… (if you think your kids are going to tell you, honestly, everything they are doing online – you are daft). Education is a great thing, … more ›
