On January 28^th,  the Rutgers University Community Liaisons, Ms. Shaeeme Alam, M.A. and Ms. Chris Ponce presented to our students and families of English as a Second Language Students  about future community college and Rutgers University options available for them.  West Morris Central and West Morris Mendham High School and Chester parents and students along with administration and guidance counselors from these schools were all invited to make the connection to a college education for students. Thank to our forward-thinking ESL teachers, Mrs. Deb Androvette, Mrs. Andrea Varughese, Mrs. Lauren Marianino who have taught many of these students in the past and are supporting their efforts to attend college in the future. These teachers planned this excellent parent presentation. A special thanks to Mrs. Gretchen Capan who was our interpreter and to Mrs. Eileen Bennett who as always worked behind the scenes in ensuring the facilities, food, and advertisement for this presentation were all successfully facilitated.  It was an excellent evening in which we were all well-informed on how to ensure our students could all enroll in college one day.
