C ommunity n ew S Trout Release At Riverwood A Joint Effort

TOMS RIVER – Intermediate South and High School East students came together in the name of science.

Specifically, trout release day, which took place at Riverwood Park. The event was the culmination of a collaborative project among Intermediate South students and Jon Hoffman’s environmental science students at HSE. Middle school students learned the importance of dissolved oxygen in aquatic life as they helped HSE students titrate the dissolved oxygen levels of the water.

After the release, there was even time for students to enjoy everything else the park has to offer.

“All of the fish swam away, and as far as we know are living their best life in the water,” according to Intermediate South teacher Susan George-Horn. Sounds like a win, win, swim.

Pallets Of Air Purifiers Arrive At Silver Bay, Pine Beach, Early Learning Center

TOMS RIVER – The New Jersey Department of Health, in partnership with the NJDOE and others, made K-12 schools throughout the state eligible to receive high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) purifying units and filters. Assistant Superintendent Jim Ricotta applied on behalf of district schools, but was unsure of the status of his applications.

However, pallets of new, state-of-the-art air purifiers recently arrived at Silver Bay Elementary School, Pine Beach Elementary School, and the Early Learning Center.

The goal of the program is to provide layered protection from respiratory illnesses and address other airborne irritants such as dust, mold, pollen, etc., and the NJDOH is prioritizing placement of its HEPA purifiers in spaces frequented by medically-fragile students. Silver Bay, for example, which hosts the district’s signature programs for students with special needs, already has their new filters up and running.

More of these units will be received and set up throughout the district in the following weeks.

“This is a fantastic, practical, and useful initiative that I’m glad we were able to take advantage of on behalf of our students and staff,” Ricotta said.
