Jackson facing federal suit on zoning actions
T
he U.S. Justice Department has filed a lawsuit against Jackson Township and the Jackson Planning Board which alleges those municipal bodies implemented zoning ordinances that intentionally restrict the operation of religious schools and housing associated with such schools, including religious boarding schools known as yeshivas, as required by the Orthodox Jewish community. The Justice Department made the announcement in a May 20 press release. On May 21, Township Council President Alex Sauickie said municipal officials have seen the press release from the Department of Justice, but had not received the government’s formal complaint. “We saw the press release, however, we have not received the formal complaint as of today. While we feel there were clearly factual inaccuracies in the press release, and the town was not given an opportunity to present our side of things, we cannot comment any further until we have an opportunity to review the complaint,” Sauickie said. The government’s complaint alleges the Jackson Township Council adopted two ordinances and the Planning Board applied those ordinances in a manner that discriminated against the Orthodox Jewish community in violation of the federal Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act of 2000 (RLUIPA) and the Fair Housing Act (FHA), according to the press release. Both municipal ordinances expressly prohibit dormitories throughout Jackson, making it impossible for religious boarding schools such as Orthodox Jewish yeshivas to establish themselves in the municipality, according to the press release. Although Jackson officials adopted the
ordinances to prevent dormitories anywhere in Jackson, the Planning Board has since approved, without requiring a variance, plans for two non-religious projects with dormitory-type housing (Jackson Adventure Crossing and Trophy Park, both on Route 537), according to the press release. During a recent meeting, Township Council members introduced two ordinances that propose to repeal the 2017 dormitory ordinances referred to in the government’s action. Final action on those two ordinances was scheduled for the council’s May 26 meeting. “Religious discrimination has no place in our society and runs counter to the founding principles of our nation,” U.S. Attorney Craig Carpenito said in the press release. “No religious community should ever face unlawful barriers or be singled out for inferior treatment. This complaint reflects our continued commitment to combat discrimination and unequal treatment,” Carpenito said. “Using zoning laws to target Orthodox Jewish individuals for intentional discrimination and to exclude them from a community is illegal and utterly incompatible with this nation’s values,” said Eric Dreiband, assistant attorney general for the Civil Rights Division. “Let me be clear. The Department of Justice will use the full force of its authority to stop such anti-Semitic conduct and prevent its recurrence,” Dreibland said. The government’s complaint also alleges that the township and the Planning Board enacted the ordinances with respect to religious dormitories against a backdrop

Spring teams handle canceled season in different ways By STEVEN BASSIN Staff Writer
T
he crack of the bat. The announcement of runners: take your mark. Game-winning goals and spikes galore. Those were the moments high school spring sports athletes and coaches were looking forward to during the 2020 season. The global coronavirus pandemic put a halt to all those fun moments of the spring sports season that was officially canceled on May 4 when Gov. Phil Murphy announced New Jersey’s schools would be closed for the remainder of the academic year. In a statement, the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association (NJSIAA) said, “Following today’s announcement by Gov. Murphy, the NJSIAA has officially canceled New Jersey’s 2020 high school spring sports season. “This decision was not made lightly and we are disappointed for the thousands of New Jersey student-athletes who will be unable to compete this spring. “While we remained hopeful to the end, and left open every possibility, competition simply is not feasible given the circumstances,” the association said. COVID-19 dealt a tough blow to New Jersey’s scholastic athletes. It cost individuals their senior season and teams lost out on a spring that could have featured state and conference championships. The Jackson Memorial High School baseball team had a talented squad that was prepared to make a run at a second state sectional title in three years and a Shore Conference Tournament championship. Seniors Carmine Petosa and Ryan Lasko were set up to lead a powerful Jaguars lineup that would go along with a solid pitching rotation led by junior right-hander Matt Potok and senior left-hander Nick Beetel. “We had a great crop of kids coming back,” Jackson Memorial Coach Frank Malta said. “They all put a lot of hard work in during the off-season and you wanted to see that pay off during the season. We wanted to see them compete one more time.” Malta said the team saw the decision from the NJSIAA and the governor coming, but said it didn’t make it easier when it was announced as the players were very disappointed the season was canceled. Entering what would have been his 16th season at the helm, Malta said he feels for his players and especially his seniors.
“The seniors on our team and the seniors across the state are losing out on their last chance to compete at the high school level and play with kids they grew up with. Those are great memories they are not getting the chance to make,” Malta said. Malta is hopeful he will be able to give his seniors and the rest of the players in the program an opportunity to play together this summer. The coach said the team has a plan in place if restrictions are lifted this summer. “Everybody is all in for three-and-ahalf weeks of practice and inter-squad scrimmages,” he said. “When things let up, we are going to come together.” Playing against other teams in the area is another possibility, Malta said. The Allentown High School baseball team is planning to hold similar activities if allowed, with all players expected to come together for team practices, Coach Brian Nice said. Allentown was coming off a 14-10 season in 2019 after reaching the Group 3 final the previous two years. With nine seniors, led by Jack Nitti and Danny McCormick, Allentown was set up for a turnaround season in 2020. No matter what the expectations of the team were going into the season, Nice said the season being canceled is disappointing. “Nobody thought after our practice on March 13 that it would be our last one for the whole season,” Nice said. “We thought maybe we would just be away for a week or two at first. Regardless of how good of a team you are, it’s still disappointing not to be able to play.” The season’s cancellation affected many high school baseball players who were looking toward this spring as a chance to help them in their aspirations to play in college and professionally. Colts Neck High School senior Robert Mannino is among the players who lost out on a chance to impress college teams this spring. Mannino, who is a resident of Marlboro, jumped onto the scene in the Shore Conference with a solid sophomore year. He followed that season with a terrific junior campaign by hitting .368 with two home runs and 12 RBI. He had a .538 onbase percentage and slugged .632, despite missing time and dealing with a shoulder injury all season. Mannino’s shoulder prevented him from taking his place behind the plate at catcher and stalled his recruitment process.

Jackson Memorial High School catcher Andrew Sefick sets a target for his pitcher in a game that was played during the 2019 season.
Feeling closer to 100% coming into this spring, Mannino was ready to have a great senior season to attract more college interest, but COVID-19 stopped that plan in its tracks. “I felt lost when I heard the news, to be honest,” Mannino said. “I worked really hard in the off-season. I didn’t get the opportunity to have the senior season I wanted to have. It was tough.” Mannino is undecided about what he will do next, but said he will most likely do a post-grad year. Mannino said he would be up for the chance to play in any type of senior all-star game or summer league if restrictions are lifted. He is motivated after losing out on the 2020 season to make the most of the chances he gets going forward. “My motivation is to be myself and keep moving forward,” Mannino said. “You never know what opportunities are going to come next.” To the circle on the softball field, Saint

John Vianney High School pitcher Julia Parker is another senior missing the chance to contend for a championship. Lancers Coach Kim Lombardi said it is sad not to be able to see Parker and the rest of her squad take the field this season. In Lombardi’s eyes, it is a missed opportunity for players to take their game to the next level and for those who were going to get their first chance at getting to showcase their talents on the diamond. “It’s very sad for all our seniors and everyone on our team,” Lombardi said. “The seniors wanted to accomplish a lot this year. You are sad for the players who were finally going to get their time to shine. It affected everyone.” Lombardi has made it known to the players who are returning in 2021 that it is important to work hard in the off-season after they missed out on a chance to develop their skills more this spring.

Family, which one of your former costars “It’s been super weird,” Vergara notes. could you see on AGT?
T
[Laughs] No one. They [have talents], but they’re actors. Eric Stonestreet, he can be a clown. How would you describe your judging style? I just want to be there, represent [the people at home], and be honest. If you’re an expert in nothing, like me, it’s very dangerous to pretend you are one. What’s the biggest challenge you’ve found while shooting from home? We’re so grateful that we can actually do this and finish the whole season. Of course, it’s not the same. You miss the audience, that energy. The music sounds better when you’re on the stage. The lights make everything better. But now, you see the people in their own houses — it’s very intimate. And you have to also be aware many times that the sound is not perfect, so you have to be using more of your imagination as to how this act would look on a stage. What are your favorite and least favorite types of acts? I love when I get surprised, like [if it’s] a little girl and then suddenly her voice is like a woman, and you close your eyes and you can’t realize it’s this tiny 10-yearold. Or when somebody looks very serious, and then suddenly he’s a really good comedian. I’m learning, but I am enjoying the surprises. One thing I didn’t realize is that I don’t love the sound of the ukulele. [Laughs] Did any acts move you to tears?
Oh my God, yes. There were a couple things that I could relate to, what the contestant was saying, what they were going through that I had gone through in my life that really moved me. But then, when that happens, you also want to be fair. You [have] to be honest about the talent. You’re also participating a lot — you got to pull a sword from someone’s throat onstage! It’s nerve-wracking [being onstage] because you don’t know what they’re going to do and you have to play it cool. I [didn’t] want to say no, because I’m just starting on the show, so, I said yes to everything, but that act with the sword was really crazy. How was your first meeting with the judges? I felt, at the beginning, like it was my first day at school. I had maybe seen them once or twice [before]. I was a little, not nervous, but excited to meet them, because I had been working for 11 years with a group of people that became my real family, you know? It was super weird, like we never had a problem. And so, what are the odds that I’m going to come to a new show immediately? I had only had one week off from Modern Family. Then, the moment I sat there, they were all helping me, giving me tips, just super nice. I really feel so lucky.
What do you think of the new season of ‘Penny Dreadful?’ Question: I recently watched the pilot episode of Showtime’s Penny Dreadful: City of Angels, and I really enjoyed it. I thought the performances were good, especially Natalie Dormer. However, I tried watching a few episodes of the original Penny Dreadful series, and this one seems very different, not just in terms of characters, but also with regards to tone and premise. The nature of the new show might be too different for fans of the original, but new fans may be hesitant to watch due to the same name. What do you think about the title association and how this could affect opinions on the new series? —Marissa Matt Roush: These two Pennys could hardly be more different, and your question is a good one. While Natalie Dormer is terrific in her various guises as the evil shape-shifting demon stirring up mayhem
in 1930s Los Angeles, I’m finding the supernatural elements of City of Angels more distracting than compelling, whereas the Gothic horrors of the original series, mashing up various iconic monsters of literature and legend, was pure intoxication to me. I am curious how fans of the original series will react to the new version. City of Angels works best for me as a crime drama wrapped in a social commentary, and I’m not sure that’s what I or anyone else expected from the anthology’s second act.

Country Gold When Country Music Variety Shows Were A Mainstay Of TV. By Mandi Bierly, ReMIND Magazine
S
ince the CMA Awards were first telecast in 1968, the ceremony has been the place to celebrate the best in country music, with memorable performances and, courtesy of the hosts — especially the last 11 years with Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood — a sense of humor. As this year’s CMAs pay tribute to legendary women in the craft, and welcome Dolly Parton and Reba McEntire as Underwood’s co-emcees, it’s a good time to remember that fans didn’t always have to wait a full year to see a starstudded country variety show on TV.
PHOTO CREDIT: THE JOHNNY CASH SHOW: CREDIT: HULTON ARCHIVE/GETTY IMAGES
Parton scored her big break on The Porter Wagoner Show, a syndicated halfhour that had already been airing for six years when she joined its cast in 1967. Though the show featured guests like Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings (donning suits, no less!) when it was still filmed in black and white, Parton was the undeniable draw after it switched to color. She sparkled brighter than Wagoner’s rhinestone-covered duds as they sang duets and she performed solo hits, including “I Will Always Love You,” which she penned for Wagoner ahead of leaving the program in 1974. Equally influential was The Jimmy Dean Show, an hour-long program that ran from 1963-66 on ABC. The “Big Bad John” singer was just as comfortable getting upstaged by his ol’ buddy Rowlf the Dog (the first Jim Henson puppet to become a household name) and sitting on his porch set alongside young comic George Carlin as he was introducing musical guests like Johnny Cash, George Jones and Buck Owens and watching guitarist Chet Atkins play “Yankee Doodle” and “Dixie” simultaneously. Both of these shows predated the CMAs. It was actually a year after the awards’ inaugural broadcast that TV saw a boom in country music variety series with three high-profile debuts. First, in January 1969, came The Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour on CBS. The “Wichita Lineman” singer, then the reigning CMA Entertainer of the Year and Male Vocalist of the Year, amassed an eclectic guest list over four seasons: He sang a soaring, soulful cover of Bob Dylan’s “Blowin’ in the Wind” with Stevie Wonder, encouraged Merle Haggard to do his impersonations of Cash and Owens in front of the icons, poked fun at his own clean-cut image with Dean Martin and acted in a swashbuckling pirate sketch opposite Liberace. Two more touchstones bowed that year: ABC’s two-season wonder The Johnny Cash Show and the mainstream hit Hee Haw, which aired on CBS until 1971 (when the network purged its “rural”-set comedies) before finding a long, happy life in first-run syndication from 1971-93. Cash’s show marked his return to the Ryman Auditorium, where he taped the series after being banned from the historic Grand Ole Opry back in 1965 for drunkenly smashing lights on
the front of the Opry stage. Now sober, he too was known for his wide-ranging guests — trumpet legend Louis Armstrong accompanied him on “Blue Yodel No. 9,” and Dylan traded verses with him on “Girl From the North Country” — but also for pushing back against the network when he felt it truly mattered. Most notorious: his insistence on keeping the word “stoned” in the lyrics when he performed Kris Kristofferson’s “Sunday Morning Coming Down” and on having antiwar folksinger Pete Seeger appear on the show. Hee Haw, hosted by the pickin’ and grinnin’ Owens and Roy Clark, leaned heavily into the hillbilly humor you’d expect to crop up in the fictional setting of Kornfield Kounty, with residents like Minnie Pearl and Grandpa Jones. Its quick-zinger pace, inspired by Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In, helped make it a Saturday night staple for the whole family — and a favorite stop for A-list country artists well into the ’90s. Sure, they’d all deliver serious performances, but greats like Cash, Jones, Tammy Wynette, Loretta Lynn, Charley Pride, George Strait and Garth Brooks also sported overalls and cracked jokes in the infamous cornfield or sang “Pfft! You Were Gone” at the signature fence. Both Parton and McEntire were repeat Hee Haw guests — McEntire even guest-hosted after Owens moved on. In early 1983 came the launch of The Nashville Network (TNN), which was purchased by Gaylord Entertainment later that year. When Gaylord purchased competitor Country Music Television (CMT) in 1991, programming for the two networks aired in conjunction — including music videos, taped concerts, syndicated series, and talk and variety shows — programming originally geared to reflect a country lifestyle. During TNN’s reign, its flagship show was Nashville Now, a live variety show hosted by Ralph Emery that ran from 1983-93. Everybody who was anybody showed up to talk to Emery, as respect for the music and the artists was his mantra. When Emery retired, the show was replaced with Lorianne Crook and Charlie Chase’s more contemporary, long-running talker Crook & Chase (1986-99). Heading into 2020, TV still celebrates country artists with a multitude of award shows, but nothing compares to the older Hee Haw heyday.

NJSBA releases special report on reopening schools
T
he New Jersey School Boards Association (NJSBA) has released a special report exploring issues involved in the reopening of schools following the closures caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. g The report was released on May 20 by the association which is a federation of the state’s local boards of education and includes the majority of New Jersey’s charter schools as associate members. NJSBA provides training, advocacy and support to advance public education and promotes the achievement of all students through effective governance, according to a press release. “In the two months since the COVID-19 pandemic forced the closure of our public schools, New Jersey’s education community has made a valiant effort to transition our students to digital learning,” said Dr. Lawrence S. Feinsod, NJSBA executive director. “Now, as we look toward the reopening of schools, the education community faces even greater challenges.” “Searching for a ‘New Normal’ in New Jersey’s Public Schools: How the Coronavirus Is Changing Education in the Garden State” provides information about the safe reopening of schools, students’ mental health, academic and extracurricular programs, budgetary issues, and preparations for the future, according to the press release. NJSBA announced plans to develop the especial report on April 16. “The report draws on the viewpoints of New Jersey’s local school officials, research by experts in education, medicine and public health, and the experience of other nations in reopening schools,” Feinsod said. “It is designed to help school districts further define challenges in these areas and develop strategies to meet them.” The report recommends 10 strategies for local school districts and the state and federal governments, including the following: • Provide school districts with accurate financial data reflecting the impact of the pandemic on New Jersey’s economy, state aid to education and school budgets; • Engage in early, sustained communication with parents, students and school district staff about the steps being taken to ensure a healthy and safe environment; Letters to the editor may be sent via email to news@thetritownnews.com. All submissions may be edited for length, content, grammar and libelous statements.
• Revise plans to ensure a smooth transition to full online instruction if schools are again closed due to health and safety considerations; • Include a “menu of options” in any statewide plan for the reopening of schools so school district administrators can select the strategies that would work best for their communities; • Provide an adequate pool of educators by enabling teacher candidates to complete training, such as classroom observations,
which was disrupted due to the health emergency. Other recommendations address strategies to meet the mental health and emotional needs of students and staff; policy regarding the use of personal protective equipment; modification of the state’s school district evaluation system – the New Jersey Quality Single Accountability Continuum – so districts are not penalized for actions necessary to address the pandemic; administration of tests to identify the need
for remediation; and adequate funding to provide such programs, according to the press release. “As the New Jersey Department of Education begins charting a course to reopen schools, NJSBA’s special report will provide the critical perspective of local boards of education and school district leaders,” Feinsod said. “We look forward to contributing to this important undertaking.” The special report can be accessed at www.njsba.org/new-normal2020

Jackson athlete looks forward to resuming pro career By CHARLES DAYE Staff Writer
E
ric Carter, 24, of Jackson, is looking forward to resuming his professional basketball career overseas when play restarts following the 2020 coronavirus pandemic. Carter, a 6-9 forward, graduated from Jackson Memorial High School in 2014. He attended the University of Delaware and graduated in 2019. As a senior, Carter averaged 15.8 points and 9.7 rebounds per game for the Fightin’ Blue Hens. Following the conclusion of his collegiate career, Carter signed a one-year contract with Sopron KC, a basketball club in Hungary’s A League, for the 2019-20 season. Carter has credited Joe Fagan, his coach at Jackson Memorial, for helping him to develop the skills he needed to play professionally. He left for Hungary in Aug-
ust 2019 and started his first professional game on his birthday, Sept. 28. He has since returned home to await his next move and in an interview, Carter said, “It has been exciting. It was definitely a hard transformation for me. When I landed, my luggage was lost and then they put you in an apartment, they give you a car and they are like, ‘We start practice tomorrow and you have to go to the doctor … but it is different. “At first I was very on edge because I am so used to being home and being with my friends … (and) it really was a transition, but after the first couple of weeks and once the games started it was a breeze. And it’s fun, man, it’s awesome,” he said. Carter debuted with a double-double, scoring 15 points and grabbing 13 rebounds. He started all 21 games for Sopron KC before the pandemic forced the cancellation of the remainder of the 2019-20 sea-
son. He led the team in rebounds, blocks and Player Efficiency Rating. During a game on Oct. 19, Carter shot 12-18 from the field, scored 29 points and grabbed 14 rebounds in an 85-78 loss to Zalakeramia-ZTE KK. During a game on Dec. 13, Carter pulled down 15 rebounds and scored 26 points in a 91-73 win over Pecsi VSK-Veolia. “I started every game and had a good season. I averaged 16 points and 9 rebounds and I made the All-Rookie Team and the All-First Team,” he said, adding that he is still playing his style of game at the power forward position. “I play inside and out. In Europe … it is all about spacing, so being able to stretch the floor, if I had a slower guy on me, I think that is to my advantage. I am lean and athletic, so when I have slower bigs on me I can use my skills to attack them,” Carter said.
He said his team started the season slowly, but started winning games prior to the cancellation of the remainder of the campaign. “We were in contention for the playoffs, but obviously with (the pandemic) happening they ended up closing down the season. It was a crazy couple of weeks. Most leagues cancelled the rest of their season. There are one or two leagues, like Israel and Germany, trying to restart. Hungary is cancelled, Italy is cancelled, the majority of places,” he said. Carter said representatives of European basketball clubs are now permitted to speak with his agent. “We’ll see what is best for me and go from there. Italy has always been a (place I have looked at), but I am open to anywhere – Italy, Spain, Germany, Israel – places like that where the money is secure and good, and it is good basketball,” he said.

summer, Lombardi said the team has nothing planned, but if someone wants to play, the Lancers would be ready to go. Over to the sport of lacrosse, the Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School girls lacrosse team was hoping for a consecutive trip to the state sectional championship game.
With a team featuring 11 seniors, Coach Ashley O’Keefe felt bad her squad was unable to compete this spring and make their own market as a unit. “Each year is a different group and as a coach, you love to see what they can accomplish together,” O’Keefe said. During these challenging times, O’Keefe has tried her best to tell each of her players to keep positive. She said the

players have done a great job pushing each other along and being there for each other through everything they have faced this spring. Since her seniors were not able to have a Senior Day, O’Keefe, her coaches and underclassman helped organize a Drive-By Senior Day to honor each of the 11 players who will graduate in June. Because the team also was not able to hold its annual Kickoff Party this spring, O’Keefe said the players are hoping to be able to throw a combined Senior Day/ Kickoff party in the summer. Summer league games and inter-squad scrimmages are other activities O’Keefe hopes her team can take part in over the summer. “We are keeping our fingers crossed for a summer tournament of sorts,” O’Keefe said. “Hopefully we can get some games in and give the seniors some closure.” A Senior Day activity is something the Red Bank Regional High School track and field program is hoping to hold this summer for its senior athletes, girls track and field Coach Brendan McGoldrick said. Every year during the last practice before the state sectional meet, seniors from the boys and girls squads participate in the
Seniors Last Lap: All of the seniors jog in a group around the track as their teammates and coaches cheer them on as a way to honor them for their hard work during the last four years. McGoldrick is hoping that at some point during the summer, them members of both squads can get together and honor the seniors in that way. With the 2020 season being canceled, McGoldrick and the coaches from both teams helped to set up a virtual event for their athletes. Each sprinter or distance runner would time himself of herself in an event in which they would have competed during the season. Throwers would send in their marks from throwing the shot put, javelin or discus. Jumpers and pole vaulters would do the same. “We had a very special class of senior athletes,” McGoldrick said. “It is very difficult for them not getting the chance to compete for the last time in high school. These are life lessons we all can learn from. Hopefully we can also get together in the summer and send the seniors out the right way.”

Jackson council calls on state leaders to rescind gas tax increases By CHARLES DAYE Staff Writer
JACKSON – Township Council members in Jackson want New Jersey’s elected leaders to immediately return the state’s gas tax to the level it was at prior to Octonber 2016. r That month, Gov. Chris Christie signed ea bill into law that added 23 cents per gallon to the gas tax, raising the tax from 14.5 ,cents to 37.5 cents per gallon. - New Jersey’s elected representatives -said the additional revenue that would be tgenerated by the higher gas tax was needed .to keep the Transportation Trust Fund sollvent. s The trust fund is used sto pay for transyportation projects throughout the Garden State. - In addition to authorizing the initial 23ocent per gallon increase in the gas tax, the law contains a provision that permits the o I e e ,
gas tax to be raised each year if gasoline sales fail to reach a certain level. Under the law, the gas tax has subsequently been raised and now stands at 48.4 cents per gallon. During a recent meeting, council members passed a resolution which calls for a rollback of the gas tax. The resolution cites the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and states that the 2016 increase of 23 cents per gallon occurred during a period of unprecedented economic growth in the United States and in New Jersey. Council members said that as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, thousands of residents of Jackson face economic uncertainty, loss of employment, loss of savings and potential foreclosure or eviction from their residence due to the shutdown of the nation’s economy. Given those circumstances, council members said it is only appropriate for
New Jersey’s leaders to immediately repeal and rescind all gas tax increases since 2016 during this time of economic crisis. The resolution states that when the public health emergency eventually diminishes, the residents of Jackson will have lost

ON THE ROAD PETER PERROTTA
2019 Nissan Rogue Sport SL AWD
E
very car manufacturer has its bread and butter model. Its anchor, so to speak, that kind of carries the load for the rest of the lineup. For Toyota, it’s long been the Corolla. The popular Civic has carried the load for Honda for many years, as well. Nissan, the third of the Big Three Japanese importers, looks to its sales leader, the Rouge SUV these days, to carry the ball in their showrooms. In an attempt to Peter Perrotta piggyback on the popularity of the Rouge, three years ago Nissan introduced a mini-Rogue of sorts and called it the Nissan Rogue Sport – it’s classified as a subcompact SUV that stands a full 13-inches shorter than the full size Rogue (at 172 inches) and three inches shorter (at 63 inches). Nissan sandwiched this model into its lineup for people who were looking for something a bit bigger than the Kicks, but not quite as big as the Rogue. Hence, they call the Rogue Sport a “’tweener”. I recently road tested the 2019 Nissan Rogue Sport SL AWD for one week to see how this ‘tweener matches up against its big brother and similar vehicles in its class. There is a lot to like on the Rogue Sport. It is quite stylish with a curvy, aerodynamic stance in the front, back, with a nice side profile as well. It looks exactly like a mini-Rogue. It has a crisp solid ride, takes bumps well and has a fairly noiseless cabin. The steering is spot on with precision like accuracy. Its interior design is smart and modern looking and its controls are not hard to navigate. However, if you are looking for the Nissan Rogue Sport to offer up a sporty ride or some type of performance ride, you won’t find it here, folks. For some reason, the design folks at Nissan decided to power this Rogue Sport with a 2.0 liter direct overhead cam, 16 valve, four cylinder engine that struggles to put out 141 horsepower and 147 pound feet of torque. When you combine that engine with the non-shifting, continuously variable transmission, it makes for an adequate ride, but really, nothing to write home about.
2019 Nissan Rogue Sport SL AWD
That being said, since, everyone has his or her own driving style, there is room in the marketplace for this vehicle to be successful. My wife, who owns a Nissan Altima, would be perfectly comfortable driving this car. She has a conservative driving style, rarely, if ever, performs any aggressive maneuvers and always goes exactly what the speed limit says. I, on the other hand, am always looking to push the envelope a bit more and enjoy putting a car through its paces. This is not a vehicle that responds well to that test. In comparison, in case you were wondering, the full size Rogue comes standard with a 2.5 liter, four cylinder engine that puts out a more robust 170 horsepower. For what its worth, my suggestion is for Nissan to put a blower – or turbo – in the Rogue Sport engine to give it that little extra power push it needs. Nissan offers up the Rogue Sport in three models: the entry level S at a base price of $23,285; the SV ($25,085) and the top of the line SL, with a base price of $29,310. Each model is offered in front wheel or all wheel drive variations. My tester was the AWD SL that carried a bottom line sticker price of $33,020. Added options to my tester included: $395 for premium paint (Scarlet Ember); $280 for carpeted floor mats with cargo area protector and a first aid kit; $1,990 for a Premium Package and $1,045 for destination and delivery. The Premium Package includes a power sliding moonroof, LED low and high beam headlights and an auto dimming inside mirror with a Homelink universal transceiver. The EPA gas mileage ratings for the
Rogue Sport are a reasonably impressive 27 miles per gallon overall – 30 mpg on the highway and 24 in city driving. The EPA estimates that the Rogue Sport will cost about $1,400 a year, on average, to gas up. It uses an estimated 3.7 gallons of gas per every 100 miles driven. The Rogue Sport SL AWD model has not been crash tested by the government’s 5-star safety rating test yet. Some of the nicer amenities that come standard with the 2019 Rogue Sport SL AWD include: 8 way power driver seat, including two way lumbar support; 19-inch aluminum alloy wheels; a Bose premium audio system with nine speakers; Apple Car Play and Android Auto; a 7-inch color display screen with multi touch control and navigation; a heated leather wrapped steering wheel, and more. Overall, the Nissan Rogue Sport has received fairly positive reviews from the general automotive press. Consumer Reports says, “The engine

is pleasant, but not overly powerful. The Sport handles responsively and rides in a refined manner, with cabin noise kept to reasonable levels. We like the easy to use controls and infotainment system.” And, the folks at Car and Driver state, “It has an economical powertrain, soaks up bumps admirably and has a spacious and well designed cabin. It is competent, handsome and accommodating. This is one crossover you could bring home to meet your mother.” So, the bottom line is, if you are looking for a good all around sub-compact crossover SUV and are not looking for an aggressive sporty vehicle, you should give this model serious consideration in this class.

FRHSD board votes to abolish positions ahead of 2020-21 By MARK ROSMAN Managing Editor
T
he Freehold Regional High School District Board of Education has voted to abolish 30 staff positions effective with the start of the 2020-21 school year. Of the 30 positions being eliminated, 17 will be accomplished through retirements and 13 will be accomplished through the non-renewal of current staff members. During a meeting on April 27, board members adopted a budget for the 2020-21 school year that includes a $6 million reduction in state aid from 2019-20. District administrators said the reduction in state aid was a factor in the reduction to the district’s roster of employees. Superintendent of Schools Charles Sampson said some or all of the 13 teachers whose contracts were not renewed for 2020-21 could be rehired during the summer if additional employees retire or leave the district prior to the start of the new school year. “We have made a number of difficult staffing decisions,” Sampson said. “In the midst of this (coronavirus) pandemic, the impact of S-2 has been lost a bit.” S-2 refers to state legislation that was
signed into law in 2018 and determines state funding to New Jersey’s school districts. The district began to see a reduction in its state aid prior to the 2018-19 school year and the reduction is scheduled to continue through the 2024-25 school year. Board member Diana Cappiello of Englishtown voted “no” on the motion to abolish the positions. Board members Carl Accettola, Heshy Moses, Elizabeth Higley, Jennifer Sutera, Marc Parisi, Peter Bruno, Michael Messinger and Kathie Lavin voted “yes.” “Because of the political garbage in this state, we have to RIF (reduce in force) over 30 people. It’s not about kids anymore. It’s about people getting elected,” said Moses, who taught and coached in the district for decades. Comments from students and other members of the public that were read into the record of the meeting by the board’s attorney, Mark G. Toscano, asked the board to retain specific teachers who are being let go; lamented the larger class sizes that will result from the reduction in force; expressed regret for all the reductions in staff; and praised the teachers who are losing their jobs for their commitment to the
district’s students. A resolution listed in the meeting agenda said state law “provides that a board of education may ‘reduce the number of teaching staff members employed in the district whenever in the judgment of the board it is advisable to abolish any such positions for reasons of economy or because of reduction in the number of pupils or of change in the administrative or supervisory organization of the district or for other good cause.’ “ District administrators have said enrollment has been declining by about 1% per year. Enrollment in the district’s six high schools currently stands at about 10,570 students. The resolution stated that “for reasons of economy and staffing needs in light of student enrollment and scheduling, the following full time-equivalent positions are recommended for abolishment” – one fulltime academic supervisor position; one full-time business teaching position; one part-time business teaching position; three full-time English teaching positions; And, one full-time family and consumer science teaching position; three full-time health and physical education teaching po-
sitions; two full-time mathematics teaching positions; one full-time social studies teaching position; four full-time science teaching positions; Also, eight full-time special education teaching positions; one full-time technology education teaching position; two fulltime world language teaching positions (Spanish); one part-time world language teaching position (Latin); one part-time world language teaching position (French); And, one full-time educational interpreter-sign language interpreting educational services position; and one full-time teacher coach-educational technology integration and application teaching position. Sampson said the Freehold Regional High School District has about 1,300 employees, which makes it the fourth or fifth largest employer in Monmouth County. About 900 employees are teachers. The district is educating students at a cost of about $14,417 per pupil, according to the budget presentation. The superintendent said seven administrative positions have been eliminated during the past nine years and he said, “We are low in terms of administrative costs. This is a big place and you need folks to run it.”
Howell officials discuss possibility of outdoor seating at restaurants By CHARLES DAYE Staff Writer
HOWELL – Members of the Township Council have started to discuss details regarding the reopening of Howell’s restaurants as the impact of the 2020 coronavirus pandemic has started to ease up. On May 19, council members authorized the extension of the deadline for the renewal of a retail food-handling establishment license until July 31 in compliance with an Executive Order that was issued by Gov. Phil Murphy. Councilman John Bonevich applauded the passage of the resolution, saying, “We are in phase one of our recovery here and soon we are going we are going to be coming into phase two. (The Executive Order) is about restaurants being able to open (in a limited capacity), but phase two mentions outdoor dining. All of our restaurants and
bars are indoors.” He said the council is trying to ensure Howell restaurant owners “do not have to go in front of planning/zoning and spend technical review money. We are giving them a little leniency because if they can only have 50% capacity inside, maybe they can gain 25% outside; and not cost themselves a lot of money.” Mayor Theresa Berger noted that for a restaurant to provide outdoor seating, some parking spaces at its location could be lost. Township Manager Brian Geoghegan said the mayor’s statement is accurate and added, “It is very difficult to come up with one set of rules that is going to apply to every business we have in town. That is why there is a lot of latitude built into this (plan) with regard to our director of land use to make determinations. “Yes, most likely some parking spac-
es will be taken up (by outdoor seating). However, it will be on the business owner. If a business owner is using all his parking spaces for seating, people are not going to come. So there does have to be a balancing act,” Geoghegan said. He said Howell’s elected officials are trying to support local businesses.
“We are hoping a lot of businesses, whether restaurants or retail, by expanding their footprint (space), might see the benefit to it and look to make (additional space) a permanent fixture and pursue that process, or quite possibly even add to their employment; putting people back to work,” Geoghegan said.

(Never known to fail). O most Beautiful Flower of Mt. Carmel, Fruitful Vine, Splendor of Heaven, Blessed Mother of the Son of God. Immaculate Virgin, assist me in my necessity. Oh Star of the Sea, help me, and show me herein You are my Mother. Oh Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth, I humbly beseech You from the bottom of my heart to succor me in my necessity (make request). There are none that can withstand Your power. O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to Thee (3 times). Holy Mary, I place this cause in your hands (3 times). Say this prayer for three consecutive days. You must publish it, and it will be granted to You.
A.D.
