TMS eighth-graders Zac Straub, Yash Balaji and Bryan Lewless work in the Project Lead the Way pre-
engineering classroom at Timberlane Middle School.
Future engineers hard at work
Middle school has
pre-engineering
program
Cooperation between educa-
tion and the community has
brought the future of education
to Timberlane Middle Schools
seventh- and eighth-graders.
The Hopewell Valley Educa-
tion Foundation has given
$40,000 to Timberlanes new
pre-engineering program, com-
pletely covering the start-up
costs for the new coursework,
including computers, software,
learning materials and the re-
designing of a classroom.
The HVEF hosted a reception
at Timberlane recently for sup-
porters in the new space, and
U.S Rep. Rush Holt, D-N.J., who
is also a physicist, stopped by to
see the new program in action.
We have a principal who
dreamed big, HVRSD Superin-
tendent Tom Smith said to the
crowd at the reception, refer-
ring to Timberlanes Tony Suoz-
zo, who initiated the switch to
Project Lead the Way Gateway
to Technology, last year. And
you all helped it come true.
This exemplifies what can hap-
pen when we work together.
The HVEF is a non-profit
foundation that provides and
solicits funding and develops
partnerships to enhance the ed-
ucational opportunities for
Hopewell Valley public school
students.
The $40,000 grant came from
Bristol Meyers Squibb ($10,000);
Janssen Pharmaceuticals
($10,000); the Institute of Elec-
trical and Electronic Engineers
(IEEE) ($10,000); the Arkay
Foundation ($5,000); and the
HVEF ($5,000), according to
Randee Tengi, president of the
board of HVEF.
The new courses are offered
as an elective this year for sev-
enth- and eighth-graders. They
are based on a national model,
designed to improve math and
science education in schools,
called STEM, which com-
bines science, technology, engi-
neering and mathematics in a
single course and includes ac-
tivities such as programming
robots, building 3-D models and
designing a glider. It replaced
the former Exploring Technolo-
gy Education class, commonly
known as wood shop, and is
taught by teacher Robert
Niederer.

HVCHS names Distinguished Grads
A journalist, a singer-song-
writer, a U.S. Department of
State security specialist and a re-
tired New Jersey state
trooper were inducted into the
Hopewell Valley Central High
School Distinguished Graduates
Hall of Fame Oct. 27.
All four had unique advice to
share with students as they ac-
cepted their awards.
HoVal gives the awards each
year to honor four grads who
have distinguished themselves
in their professional fields.
The awards hang in a Hall of
Fame display outside of CHSs
Performing Arts Center.
Recipient Dina Cappiello,
Class of 91 and an award-win-
ning environmental journalist
for the Associated Press in
Washington, D.C., told the stu-
dents at an assembly in the PAC
recently that they will perse-
vere and excel in life if they
find a profession they love.
I am very lucky to have a job
that I love, she told them. You
need to find out what really
makes you soar, what really fires
up your engines. I discovered
that, and that makes life easy.
Among them are a journalist and retired N.J. state trooper

Suozzo said 240 students are
signed up to take the half-year
courses this school year.
A few of those students
worked at computers as the re-
ception went on around them.
Eighth-grader Bryan Lew-
less, who is currently taking
the PLTW robotics course, sat
at a computer designing a ro-
botic arm, which he will then
build with materials in the
classroom. Yash Balaji, another
eighth-grader, was designing a
playground on his screen.
Its really fun, and its a
good way to start the day, said
Yash, who has the course first
period each day. Its a lot of
problem solving, and I like
that.
Student Jack Humphreys,
who hopes to design video
games for a living, said he likes
having access to some of the
better technology available
through the class.
But Zac Straub, who admits
hes into computers, said you
dont have to be to enjoy the
class.
Mr. Neiderer explains it
simply and makes it fun, he
said.
Suozzo said after start up, the
program will cost about the
same, or less, than the wood
shop program, and that it has
an important goal.
Clearly, as a nation, we are
not producing as many engi-
neers and scientists as we
would like, and this course re-
sponds to that, and is part of a
national effort to do better in
those fields, he said.
The seventh-grade PLTW
course consists of two, 45-day
modules.
One is called Design & Model-
ing, which explores the way
things are designed using com-
puter modeling, sketching and
other tools. The other 45 days
are spent exploring Energy &
the Environment, in which stu-
dents learn about the impor-
tance of energy in our lives, de-
sign and model alternative en-
ergy forms and explore the con-
cepts of innovation, energy effi-
ciency and waste management.
In the eighth-grade, PLTW
course, the first 45-day unit is
called Robotics and Automa-
tion, which covers the history
of these topics and offers
hands-on projects in mechani-
cal and computer control sys-
tems.
The second unit is Flight &
Space, in which students learn
about the history of aerospace,
again taught through hands-on
activities, and design and build
a model glider.
Also, simulation software
shows them what its like to
travel and live in space.
In 2011-12 only, because it is a
brand new course, eighth-
graders can take the seventh
grade classes if they wish.
We have been researching
this program for several years,
Suozzo said. We believe its an
excellent opportunity for our
students to develop the 21st-cen-
tury skills that they will need
for their future.

Distinguished HVCHS alums recognized
Jack Davis, class of 78, who
retired as a decorated New Jer-
sey state trooper in 2008, told stu-
dents that his mother taught
him long ago that the luck you
may see others have is usually
the result of years of hard work.
She said once, Isnt it inter-
esting that the harder someone
works, the luckier they seem to
be? the Titusville resident told
the students. Enjoy life and
work hard.
Ronald Hoch, Class of 61, a
senior security analyst at the
U.S. State Department and a for-
mer U.S. Secret Service agent
who protected Presidents Gerald
R. Ford and Jimmy Carter, told
the students to stay on the right
side of the law to safeguard their
futures.
My advice is to keep a clean
record, he told them, noting
that if they pursue a career in
any kind of security or law en-
forcement, background checks
will turn up any drug use and/or
arrests. He also noted that per-
severance would take them far.
A diamond is a lump of coal
that stuck with it, Hoch offered.
Singer-songwriter Danielia
Cotton, Class of 85, said that her
time as one of the few African-
American students at HoVal 25
years ago was not always easy.
I was a little Black kid, and I
didnt fit in, she told the stu-
dents. I didnt have the things
everyone else had, and I didnt
look like everyone else.
High school struggles, howev-
er, contribute to your growth as
a person, she said.
These are very definitive
years of your life, she told the
students. I am everything I am
because I struggled to find out
who I was. But please do remem-
ber, this is a great time of your
life. Just be happy.
Cappiello, an award-winning
environmental journalist for the
Associated Press, graduated
from Georgetown University
with a bachelors degree in biol-
ogy and decided to pursue a mas-
ters degree in secondary educa-
tion at Columbia University.
While at Columbia, she en-
rolled in writing and science
courses, which inspired her to
earn masters degrees in
both environmental science and
journalism.
She began her career in envi-
ronmental journalism as a re-
porter for the Albany (N.Y.)
Times Union newspaper. In 2001,
the New York State Associated
Press Association named her
Young Journalist of the Year.
After accepting a position
with the Houston Chronicle,
Cappiello continued her inves-
tigative environmental report-
ing, including a 2005 award-win-
ning series of articles called In
Harms Way, detailing the ef-
fects of refineries pollution on
neighboring communities.
A Pulitzer-Prize nominee and
now a journalist for the Associ-
ated Press in Washington, D.C.,
Cappiello continues to report on
environmental issues on the na-
tional and global stage.
Cotton is an award-winning
rock-soul singer and songwriter.
While growing up in Hopewell,
She attended HoVal, and then
went on to graduate from the
Mercer County School of the
Performing Arts at the top of
her class. Earning a full scholar-
ship to Bennington College,
she majored in acting, but
also continued her music stud-
ies.
In her career as a singer, song-
writer and guitarist, Cotton has
opened for some of the most
well-known names in rock,
blues, and rhythm-and-blues, in-
cluding Gregg Allman, B.B.
King, Derek Trucks, Bon Jovi,
Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Robert
Cray.
She followed her debut album,

in our opinion
T
hanksgiving kicks off the tra-
ditional holiday season. And
with the holiday season come
all kinds of efforts to help those in
need.
We want to help spread the word if
you or an organization you are work-
ing with are trying to brighten the hol-
idays for someone.
Every year, schools, civic groups
and more do hold all kinds of drives.
Food is collected. Clothing is gathered.
Toys are purchased and donated so
that children have a happy holiday
season.
We want to help these efforts by get-
ting the word out. To do that, we need
you to tell us about any collection ef-
forts you have.
Its easy to do. Just shoot us an
email. Tell us who you are, what you
are doing and, most importantly, how
our readers can help you to achieve
your goal.
Its vital to tell us where and when
people can make donations and the
types of donations that you are accept-
ing. Letting people know where their
donations end up doesnt hurt either.
Once we get the information, we
will share it with our readers. Then,
hopefully, they will respond and fill
your collection baskets until they are
overflowing.
Theres no need to explain the eco-
nomic problems so many of our
friends and neighbors are experienc-
ing. You know many people are hurt-
ing, and have been hurting for some
time now. You know that, without your
help, they will have a difficult holiday
season.
So lets do all we can to help those in
need. All of you Holiday Heroes, let us
know what you are doing and how peo-
ple can make a difference.
Well take it from there.
Help during holidays
Collecting food? Gathering clothing? Tell us about it

If you are holding a drive to help the
less fortunate this holiday season, tell
us about it. Well spread the word.

OWS, protection, sewage and a chase
Zuccotti Park gets cleansed
from Occupy Wall Street
As if the public perception of the Occu-
py Wall Street protesters wasnt bad
enough already, last weeks raid of Zuccotti
Park in New York City added more fuel to
the fire. The protesters, it seems, created
unsanitary living conditions that had be-
come intolerable, according to NYC
Mayor Michael Bloomberg. And so, they
were cleared of the area forcibly of
course while cleaning crews literally
hosed down the filth.
It had to be embarrassing enough for the
original OWS organizers that some protest-
ers had taken the movement so far that
participants are being portrayed as not just
extreme, not just crazy, not just misguided,
but also smelly. And who can get behind
that?
Tim Ronaldson
Too often, institutions, not
kids, protected from abuse
In my younger years, I wasnt just a jour-
nalist. I was a teacher, too. In Roman
Catholic High Schools in the Archdiocese
of Newark. I loved teaching and I loved
being a mentor to teens who often had very
few role models in their lives.
To say it was a labor of love would be an
understatement.
The pay was nothing more than a pit-
tance. But the net results of being a good
teacher were invaluable and those memo-
ries remain among my fondest.
While I was employed by the Archdio-
cese of Newark, something beyond com-
prehension happened it was the scandal
that rocked the church in ways little else
could. Priests, by the hundreds, were being
named in lawsuits.
Some of the incidents dated back to well
before Vatican II to a time where the
church was tantamount in the lives of
many Catholics.

Low speed chase takes police
on a leisurely Toms River tour
Police said said a man led them on an
ambling, low-speed chase through Toms
River for about 20 minutes Sunday night,
before rolling on to someones front yard
and trying to escape officers on foot, the
Asbury Park Press reported.
Police said they captured Matthew J.
Thoms, 43, as he hid in a bush in a nearby
backyard. Police had initially tried to stop
Thoms pickup truck when officers re-
sponded to a call about a suspicious vehicle
in the Bay Shore section of town, just be-
