The organizers of the annual Jammin for Jaclyn Benefit Concert thank their supporters. Though they weren’t able to hold a live in-person event in Sayreville due to the pandemic, there was a successful livestream event that raised $35,260 for the two beneficiaries, Sienna Smith and the Chris Szatkowski family. The organization accepts donations year-round and is looking for new sponsors as it prepares for its April 2021 event. For more information, visit JamminforJaclyn.org or email JamminforJaclyn@gmail.com. Or, text “Jammin” to 202-858-1233 to donate online.

ith the goal of making society a better place, members of the Diverse American Volunteer Association continue to volunteer their time for those in need. Jordan Glik, president of the small nonprofit organization based in Old Bridge, led a volunteer effort at Geick Park to put together 500 or so COVID-19 kits – small packages consisting of a few masks, hand sanitizer, tissues and granola bars – on Aug. 14. “With funds from past events, we bought nine gallons of hand sanitizer from Costco and 500 little bottles from Amazon to fill with the hand sanitizer,” he said. The COVID-19 kits were delivered to three homeless shelters in Newark – Circle of Life Shelter, New Community Harmony House, and Covenant House NJ. The focus of the Diverse American Volunteer Association (DAVA) is community service. DAVA was founded by Old Bridge High School students in 2017 – Mohammad Sikandar, Nigel Master, Jordan Glik, Ivy McElroy, and Sofia Ruiz.

Old Bridge Public Schools will begin school year all-remote until Oct. 12 By KATHY CHANG Staff Writer

ld Bridge Public Schools will begin the 2020-21 school year all-remote until Oct. 12. The district’s re-entry task force – administrators, teachers, parents and staff, including personnel from transportation, maintenance, custodial, nurses, and food service – held lengthy meetings on Aug. 14 and 18 to discuss the state’s option to allow school district’s to start the school year all-remote.

Schools Superintendent David Cittadino presented the re-entry task force’s recommendation to delay the proposed hybrid reopening schools plan at a Board of Education meeting on Aug. 18. He said the decision for the delay is due to the continued concerns of transportation, shortage of nursing staff and air ventilation during warmer weather days. As part of the state’s option, Cittadino said he has to certify the district has done everything it can to ensure the safety of the students and staff.

“I have one number that concerns me always as superintendent, and that is how many staff members and how many students have lost their lives to my negligence,” he said. “At this point that number has been zero. If I can retire with that number remaining zero, that’s the most important thing to me.” The district will hold staff professional development days Sept. 1-3. The school year will begin on Sept. 8 and 100% remote learning will run through Oct. 9. The hybrid reopening schools plan is expected

to begin on Oct. 12. Cittadino said when the hybrid plan begins, parents and guardians will still have a choice to have their children remain in remote learning. Hybrid in-person plan Old Bridge public school officials presented their hybrid reopening schools plan, which bring teachers, staff and students inperson three times a week. In the plan, the 8,500 students will be

Jewish federations train leaders on how to de-escalate violent acts

he Jewish Federation in the Heart of New Jersey, in partnership with Jewish Federations of Greater MetroWest and Northern NJ, presented H.A.R.M. (hostility, anger, and rage management) training for Jewish communal leaders on how to recognize, deter, and de-escalate hostile or violent acts directed at their organizations, people and facilities. he web-based training was attended by approximately 250 participants on July 28, including presidents and board members, rabbis, security directors, executive directors, administrators, education directors, and others from synagogues and Jewish schools, cultural centers, and community centers in more than ten counties throughout New Jersey – as well as local, state and federal law enforcement professionals, and Jewish Federation security directors from across the country, according to a prepared statement. Steven Crimando, an internationally known consultant and educator specializing in behavioral science applications in crisis management and emergency response, provided instruction in: • Recognizing and defusing acute anxiety, anger, and hostility • Pre-incident risk indicators of lone actor and homegrown violent extremists • Understanding hostile approach behaviors

• Applying a three-step model to the management of fear and anxiety • Verbal and non-verbal de-escalation techniques • De-escalating groups and crowds In a special address, Jared M. Maples, director of the New Jersey Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness, expressed appreciation for Jewish Federations’ partnership in collective leadership securing our state not just through target hardening, but equally through education and training. Among his remarks, Maples emphasized New Jersey’s whole-state approach to transparency – tracking threats; calling them out; and sharing information between the public and private sector, religious organizations, and industry groups – to understand the nature of threats and more effectively dealing with them. He explained New Jersey is the only state to label white supremacy a top terror threat along with homegrown violent extremists, according to the statement. Jewish Federation in the Heart of NJ and its partner Federations work closely with Maples and the New Jersey Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness, as well as other law enforcement and public safety bodies, on a routine basis, to empower the Jewish and broader faith community amid rising anti-Semitism, bias incidents, and security threats, according to

Massage Envy clients can donate massage time to health care heroes

nspired by watching a clip on the news, Hillsborough-based Massage Envy owner Greg Robertson and his wife, Renee, took up the charge to do something during the public health crisis of COVID-19. “Renee and I were watching the news and a pizzeria donated 40 pizzas to a local hospital. We wanted to do something similar,” Robertson said at an event on Aug. 11 at his facility, according to information provided by Hillsborough Township. “We started out with our donation, then our therapists and employees, asking if they were interested in donating time. It then expanded to our members. By the time all was said and done, here we are donating $78,000 worth of massages to health care workers at Saint Peter’s Hospital in New Brunswick, Hunterdon Medical Center and Capital Health. “I then shared the concept with corporate and this donation project had become the “Hero” program and all Massage Envy locations in New Jersey will be participating. We are anticipating nearly $600,000 worth of massage to be collectively donated,” Robertson said, according to the

statement. “It’s a great way to give back to our heroes,” he said. On Aug. 11, Massage Envy Hillsborough was the backdrop for a ceremonial check presentation in which Hillsborough Township Mayor Doug Tomson and Administrator Anthony Ferrera were among the invited guests, along with the representatives from the three mentioned hospitals who were receiving the donations. Tomson thanked Robertson, his employees and members for their overwhelming generosity. “It continues to impress me, the acts of kindness that our Hillsborough community has shown during this crisis,” Tomson said in the statement. Robertson has been in business for 11 years, opening his first Massage Envy location in Hillsborough. He now owns and operates three locations, Princeton and Flemington in addition to Hillsborough. and is in the process of acquiring two additional locations.

the statement. “Jewish Federation in the Heart of New Jersey has recently brought more than a dozen security workshops to Jewish communal leaders as well as individual community members to make Jewish life in Monmouth and Greater Middlesex counties stronger and safer,” said Amy Keller, director of Security Initiatives at Jewish Federation in the Heart of New Jersey, according to the statement. Keller was joined by fellow security directors, Bob Wilson of Greater MetroWest and Jerry Dargan of Northern New Jersey, in producing and hosting the H.A.R.M. training. During the COVID-19 pandemic, for example, as bias incidents increased, Jewish Federation in the Heart of New Jersey joined other Federations across the state and the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) to connect Jewish organizations with guidance on bias incident awareness, facilitated by the U.S. Department of Justice. It featured presenters from the US Attorney’s Office for the District of NJ; NJ Office of the Attorney General, NJ Division of Criminal Justice; NJ Division on Civil Rights, NJ State Police; and NJ Bias Crime Officers Association. Throughout the pandemic, Federation has directly consulted with Jewish organizations and provided them with access to regionally- and nationally-recognized

experts on topics ranging from cybersecurity required for virtual operations and security measures for unoccupied buildings to guidelines on applying for government security grants and considerations for returning to on-site operations, according to the statement. The work relating to security grants yielded another $1 million in government funds being awarded to Jewish organizations in Monmouth and Greater Middlesex – bringing the five-year total for the heart of New Jersey to $5 million for security enhancements. “Empowering our Jewish community amid rising anti-Semitism and security threats is central to Jewish Federation’s role,” said Susan Antman, executive director of Jewish Federation in the Heart of New Jersey, in the statement. “Our security initiatives, Security Task Force, and partnerships with the New Jersey Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness and many other public, private, and faith-based bodies help make our community stronger, safer, more supportive, and sustainable for all.” For more information, contact Keller at amyk@jewishheartnj.org and access additional resources from the NJ Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness at NJOHSP.org.

Reformed Church Home deficiencyfree for infection control standards OLD BRIDGE - The Reformed Church Home, a senior community offering assisted living, rehabilitation, and skilled nursing care in Old Bridge, received a deficiency-free rating by the New Jersey Department of Health following a COVID-19 Focused Infection Control Survey conducted on June 26. The home was found to be in compliance with specific state and federal infection control regulations established as a result of COVID-19, and also was found to have implemented the recommended COVID-19 preparation practices set forth by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), according to information released earlier this month. “I am unbelievably proud of our exceptional staff, who have worked tirelessly to adhere to new infection control protocols while maintaining the superior care we are known for. Every department has done their part, but I especially want to thank nursing, housekeeping, and maintenance personnel for their dedication and thoroughness,” Kate Shepard, executive director/administrator at Reformed Church

Home, said in the statement. Some of the infection control parameters assessed included staff and resident hand washing techniques; sanitation procedures for high-touch surfaces; judicious use of personal protective equipment (PPE) such as masks, gowns, and gloves; and adherence to social distancing guidelines for mealtimes and activities, according to the statement. “We realize it is a difficult decision to enter a long term care setting under the best of circumstances, but we want the larger community to be aware we are doing everything possible to keep our residents safe and healthy,” Shepard said in the statement. The home had 13 residents test positive for COVID-19 from early April through early June, with no deaths attributable to the virus. At present, all residents and staff undergo weekly testing and daily screening per the CDC guidelines to prevent further cases. Reformed Church Home is located at 1990 Route 18, Old Bridge.

Sayreville council prohibits heavy trucks on certain streets By MATTHEW SOCKOL Staff Writer

SAYREVILLE – The Sayreville Borough Council has adopted an ordinance prohibiting trucks weighing over four tons from traveling on certain streets. Council members adopted the ordinance on Aug. 17 that excludes trucks that weigh over four tons from locations on four streets. Trucks of such weight are excluded from traveling on Parkview Boulevard from Ernston Road to its terminus at Driftwood Drive; Elacqua Boulevard from Ernston Road to its terminus at Driftwood Drive; Dusko Drive from Old Cheesequake Road to its terminus at Paprota Drive; and Eugene Boulevard from Bordentown Avenue to its terminus at the cul-de-sac. Exceptions to the exclusion will be made for the pickup and delivery of materials on these four streets, according to the ordinance.

In other business, the council adopted a bond ordinance amending a 2017 bond ordinance that appropriated $2.6 million for improvements to Pulaski Avenue and authorized the issuance of $1.53 million in bonds or notes to help finance the appropriation. The original bond ordinance was allocated toward improvements of the entire length of Pulaski Avenue. Through the amendment, the $2.6 million appropriation of the bond ordinance will also be used for improvements to Jernee Mill Road, Washington Road and MacArthur Avenue. As stated in the original ordinance, the costs of the $2.6 million appropriation not covered by the $1.53 million in bonds or notes will be covered by a $1.08 million grant from the New Jersey Department of Transportation. Due to the grant, no down payment from the borough is necessary in financing the $2.6 million appropriation.

CASA advocates go through extensive training before they are paired with a child or sibling group and annual continued education to stay current on issues impacting children. Though state agencies ensure the child’s basic needs are met, CASAs are trained to gather well-being information and report to the family court judge to help a child thrive. Additionally during Toast 2020, the late William Hamilton, Jr., will be recognized for his contributions to CASA of Middlesex County as a board member, donor and friend. To purchase tickets, visit www.casaofmiddlesexcounty.org/Toast2020.

split up alphabetically in sections A, B, and C. A section will learn in-person on Mondays while sections B and C will learn remotely, B section will learn in-person on Wednesdays while sections A and C will learn remotely, and C section will learn inperson on Fridays while sections A and B will learn remotely. Tuesdays and Thursdays will be district-wide remote learning days for students and staff. Preschool will split into morning and afternoon sessions. Cittadino presented the district’s The Path Forward Plan at a virtual forum on July 28. The Old Bridge Board of Education voted to approve the plan at a special meeting on July 30. Board President Kelly Ellis-Foster, Board Vice President Jill DeCaro, and board members Theresa Burns, Jill Cali and Sal DiPrima voted in favor of the proposed plan while board members Richard Dunn, Salvatore Giordano, Lisa Lent and Matt Sulikowski abstained from the vote. Cittadino prefaced the forum by stating the decisions the district makes as far as a reopening plan will not make everyone happy. He said the best piece of advice from a mentor early on in his superintendent tenure was to “always err on the side

NEWSPAPER MEDIA GROUP • www.centraljersey.com

of protecting children – if you do that then you’ve done your job.” And to make sure the district’s 8,500 students and 1,500 staff members enter a safe place when they begin the hybrid plan, Cittadino said with the guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines all they know is the difference between March 2020 when schools closed due to the novel coronavirus pandemic and August 2020 is wearing a mask has proven to reduce the number of coronavirus cases. All staff and students will be required to wear masks when on a school bus or when in a school facility. Exceptions and modifications will be in place for special medical circumstances. The district will provide two washable cloth masks per student and staff, and masks will be available if a staff member or student needs extra. A 54-passenger school bus is proposed to carry 11 students. Transportation will practice regular cleaning and disinfection of frequently touched surfaces, including surfaces in the driver cockpit. Students are expected to practice social distancing and avoid touching surfaces. “My greatest nightmare is someone contracts [COVID-19] in the student body and staff and it negatively impacts their family,” Cittadino said. The district sent out a family survey to get an idea of how families felt about returning to school, what families would like to see in the approach to learning and their

top three concerns on returning to school. The district received 3,618 responses, which represent 5,486 students. Some 48% of families feel “somewhat or very uncomfortable” returning to school, 43% of families feel “somewhat or very comfortable” returning to school and 9% were neutral. Some 41% of families would like to return to 100% in-person learning, 37% of families would like a hybrid approach, and 22% of families would like 100% remote learning. The top three concerns for families returning to school included children and staff coming to school sick, cleaning and disinfecting and social distancing in the classrooms. The district also sent out a staff survey and received 1,018 responses. Some 54% of staff members are “somewhat or very uncomfortable” returning to school, some 36% of staff members are “somewhat or very comfortable” returning to school, and 11% were neutral. Some 92% of staff would feel “more comfortable” returning to school if both students and staff members are required to wear masks. The top three concerns for staff members returning to school included general health and safety guidelines, screening, personal protective equipment and response to student and staff presenting symptoms, and student flow, entry/exit and common areas. Cittadino said the goals for the district path forward plan include maintaining the health and safety of students, staff and the community, maximizing and individualizing student learning, supporting teachers and staff with appropriate professional resources to maximize student learning and interaction and establishing a sound operational and financial foundation for the district for the 2020-21 school year and beyond. In the hybrid plan, students will be attending school in-person at a 33% capacity district-wide. All in-person days will be a half-day schedule for all grades – elementary schools from 9:15 a.m. to 1:15 p.m., middle schools from 8 a.m. to noon and high school from 7:35 a.m. to 11:44 a.m. Students will be paired with their siblings in the same sections to the greatest extent possible. After in-person days, teachers will begin remote teaching for the students at home during afternoon hours. Students are expected to sign in and report to instruction on remote learning days. Breakfast will be available in homeroom and students will receive grab and go multi-day meals on in-person learning days. Meals will be available for pick up at several district locations for remote learning students. Snacks may be brought from home or provided to students where appropriate.

August 26, 2020A

James Tuohy, executive director of educational programs in Old Bridge, said the hybrid plan allows the district to scale increase as health guidelines allow from 33% to 66%. The hybrid plan provides concentrated and direct instruction for English, reading and mathematics as well as other core content areas necessary for elementary skill building through high school graduation requirements. The hybrid plan and 100% remote plan will allow students to check-in “live” with their teacher, have teacher recorded video lessons, teacher led remote small group activities, online, self-directed learning activities, and services for students in special education, response to intervention and English as a second language. Funds through the CARES Act allows the district to provide 1:1 Chromebook devices and 1:1 Wi-Fi connection for students in the elementary through high school levels. The district plans to use Microsoft Teams to streamline the use of platforms and provide consistency across grade levels.

Health, safety and facility cleaning Prior to entering the building all staff and students will have a wellness check, which include survey questions and a temperature check. All staff reporting to work will self-check their temperature within the vestibule of the building. Student temperatures will be screened prior to disembarking from a school bus, a parent/guardian driving away at car drop off zone, and/or student entering the school from walking areas, designated entry ways. Staff who screen with an elevated temperature above 99.9 degrees will immediately return to their car and contact their immediate supervisor via cell phone. Students who screen with an elevated temperature above 99.9 degrees will be escorted to an isolation tent for review by the school nurse. Students and staff exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19 [during in-person school days] will report to the designated isolation area for observation and in the case of students, transportation home. All district facilities will be cleaned with an Environmental Protection Agency registered and approved disinfectant to kill germs. The district uses diversey disinfectant – Virex II 256 or Alpha HP. Surfaces used and touched will be cleaned daily. Deep cleaning of all facilities will be done on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Next Steps The district’s The Path Forward Plan presentation and revised opening plan is on the district website at oldbridgeadmin. org. The district will provide a frequently asked question sheet. Additional questions and concerns can be sent to covidreentryquestions@obps.org

PSE&G will reimburse for food, medicine spoiled during Isaias

SE&G is expanding its claims policy due to the COVID-19 pandemic so that customers whose electrical service was interrupted by Tropical Storm Isaias for at least 72 hours can be reimbursed for spoiled food and medication. The tropical storm knocked out power for more than 575,000 customers in New Jersey, making it the fifth-most destructive storm in our company’s 100-plus year history, according to information provided by the company. “We recognize that losing power in August, together with the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, was a hardship for many of our customers,” PSE&G President Dave Daly said in a prepared statement. “Given the unique combination of circumstances, we believe the right thing to do is to expand our claims process to ease the burden on the customers most impacted by Tropical Storm Isaias.” PSE&G will reimburse residential customers up to $250 and commercial customers up to $5,000 for food spoilage if their service was interrupted for 72 hours or longer between Aug. 4 and 12 because of Isaias, according to the statement. For residential customers, food spoil-

age claims of $150 or less must include an itemized list. Food spoilage claims over $150 must include an itemized list and proof of loss (for example: cash register tapes, store or credit card receipts, canceled checks or photographs of spoiled items). Separately, customers will be reimbursed for losses, up to a maximum of $300, for prescription medications that spoiled due to lack of refrigeration. Customers must provide an itemized list of the medications and proof of loss (for example: pharmacy prescription label or pharmacy receipt identifying the medicine). Commercial customers applying for reimbursement must supply an itemized list of spoiled food and proof of loss (invoices, inventory lists, bank statements). Customers can apply for reimbursement at pseg.com/claims. Reimbursement claims cannot be processed over the phone. Customers will have until Sept. 16, 2020, to file claims. Reimbursement is expected to take up to 60 business days from when a proper claim form is completed and submitted to PSE&G, according to the statement.

o assist local small businesses during the coronavirus pandemic, Middlesex County is implementing a new round of funding in its CARES Act Small Business Relief Grant (MC-SBRG) program which utilizes federal CARES Act funding. These grants will serve to reimburse costs and loss of revenue associated with adopting business operations in a post-COVID-19 environment. The county intends to award a total of $30 million in grants for loss of revenue, expenses incurred, and/or continuation of services through this latest round of CARES Act Funds. This program will be administered by the Middlesex County Department of Finance. Beginning Aug. 17, those eligible to apply for grants can do so at the new CARES Act Small Business Relief Grants Portal. For more information, visit www.middlesexcountynj.gov/mcsbrg “The primary purpose of the MC-SBRG program is help the Middlesex County community respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. The program is designed to target assistance to small businesses impacted by the pandemic,” Freeholder Director Ronald G. Rios said in a statement prepared by the Middlesex County Office of Communication. “The county is committed to helping our small business owners who are the lifeblood of our communities and our local economy.” Grants of up to $30,000 may be available. The individual grant amount will be based on application review on a first come first served basis. The application process will remain open until all funds are distributed. Incomplete applications will not be reviewed and will not be given consideration. An incomplete application is considered to be one that has not uploaded all requested documents or answered all required questions within the portal. “Since the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, our local small businesses have been one of the hardest hit populations in our communities,” Freeholder Leslie Koppel, chair of the Finance Committee,

according to the statement. “We applaud our small business owners for the strength they have displayed throughout these difficult times. We are proud to offer support to our neighbors with the distribution of these CARES Act Small Business Relief Grants.” “As the state eases restrictions surrounding COVID-19 closures, our small businesses are continuing to struggle and feel the impacts that this global health pandemic has had in our own backyard,” Freeholder Deputy Director Kenneth Armwood, chair of the Business Innovation, Education and Opportunity Committee, said in the statement. “It is imperative now and moving forward that our community supports small businesses in any way they can.” All applicants must submit applications that meet the following criteria to be eligible for the grant: • Independently or family-owned businesses with no more than 50 employees • Documented business interruption as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and related emergency declaration, resulting in financial loss. • Businesses must have been opened prior to Dec. 31, 2019, and operating on March 1, 2020 • Businesses deemed “non-essential” within the classification of “Businesses Required to Close” as per the Governor’s Executive Order No. 104, dated March 16, 2020 • Must be a Sole Proprietorship, LLC/A LLP, S-Corporation, Corporation, Non-1 profit* or Partnership b • Active businesses physically located6 in Middlesex County, with a net annualp business income of less than $1,000,0009 g based on their 2019 federal tax return Non-profits only eligible for reimburse-1l ment of increased incurred expenses, not1 loss of revenue. 1 For additional resources related to CO-1 VID-19, visit www.middlesexcountynj.1 1 gov/covid19
