     Millburn Board of Education President John Westfall-Kwong,

     from left, with Superintendent Christine Burton.

    New Millburn Superintendent KeepsExpectations High With Eye To Improve

    by Kerry Breen

    Although she was named as the interim superin-

    tendent on March 1, Christine Burton became theofficial superintendent of the Millburn school dis-

    trict on July 1.

    “It is an honor to be given this opportunity,” said

    Burton, when asked how she felt about being named to the

    position. “It is a fantastic district; to be given the opportu-nity to work here and be a vital part of the curriculum and

    instruction, and to work with the teachers and administra-

    tors, and to now lead the district – it is an honor, one I am

    very excited to be given.”

    Burton started her career as a middle school teacherwho primarily taught math, working in Hillsboro. She

    advanced through the ranks, becoming their mathematicsspecialist; eventually she became the director of the math-

    ematics department in Montgomery Township’s school

    district. In 2010, she began her career in the Millburn

    school district, where she was the assistant superintend-ent. In March, she was named the interim superintendent,

    and on July 1 she was named the official superintendent.

    She has been working in the district for six years.

    Burton says she believes that, even though Millburn

    places high expectations on students, and expects muchfrom them both academically and in their extra-curricu-

    lars, students should be treated individually.

    “One of the things I have been speaking a lot about isthe way we as a district can improve on our high levels of 

    rigor and expectation,” she said. “How can we go beyond

    the acquisition of skills and knowledge – how can wemake our students innovative problem solvers; how can

    we teach them to solve real-world problems? Through

    curriculum and instructional practices, we will innovate,

    and we will inspire students to innovate. We want students

    to demonstrate their knowledge beyond pencil and papertests. We want to build true twenty-first century learners

    who have active problem solving skills, using thingsthey’ve learned in class.”

    Burton has been open with parents about her plans for

    the district, and has kept them well-updated as to the

    goings-on of the school, even during the summer. On the

    website, it is easy to navigate to a page

    where she posts updates that detail impor-tant information, such as projects that are

    being worked on and other important

    information that students and parents need

    to know.

    “We are always looking for ways toimprove upon what we do,” said Burton,

    when asked what she would like to say to

    any parents who have students in the dis-

    trict. “I would like to tell them to be able to

    expect the best – of myself, of the teachers,

    and of the students. At the end of the day,

    we are addressing the needs of the kids.We also need to remember the important

    elements of meeting their needs as kids – it

    is important that we have rigorous pro-

    grams and high expectation, but we need

    to meet their individualized needs. Wehave to remember that they are kids.”

    On a list of New Jersey schools with

    the best teachers in the state,

    Millburn Senior High School and

    Livingston Senior High School ranked first

    and second, respectively. Both schools arepublic high schools, with students in grades

    nine through twelve enrolled. Livingston

    Senior High School has 1,809 students;

    Millburn Senior High School has 1,522.

    Both are ranked as ‘A+ Schools’ by

    Niche.com, using a variety of categories,

    such as academics, extracurriculars, teach-

    ers, and food. Only 2.5 percent of the

    schools on Niche.com receive A plus rat-

    ings.

    Out of the school in NJ, 241 schools in

    the state were surveyed by Niche.com, mak-ing it all the more impressive that Livingston

    and Millburn managed to score so strongly.

    Livingston has a student-teacher ratio of 

    11:1, which allows teachers to make sure

    that no students are left struggling, and

    makes it easier to provide a more tailored,

    individualized educational experience.

    Millburn has a similar ratio of 13:1.

    The teachers in the schools are also well-

    received by the parents and students, accord-

    ing to statistics posted on Niche.com.

    Teachers at Millburn Senior High School

    earned 4.2 points out of a possible five, and

    teachers at Livingston Senior High School

    earned an even 4.0 out of five.

    “They care,” said Millburn Senior HighSchool Principal William Miron, when

    asked what he thought made the teachers in

    his school so acclaimed. “The students

    know that they care about them, that they are

    interested in both their progress and in them

    as human beings – they are interested in

    them academically and personally. It goes

    beyond driving the kids to do well. Every

    student needs people interested in helping

    them get above and beyond, and that is what

    our teachers can do.”

    Many of the teachers in these two schoolsare very experienced, having been teaching

    for at least three years. Niche.com also totals

    the percentages of teachers who have been

    working for only one or two years – in

    Millburn Senior High School, only 9.8 per-

    cent of teachers have been teaching for only

    that long. In Livingston Senior High School,

    16.3 percent of teachers are in their first or

    second year.

    “It takes more than expertise in the field

    Millburn and Livingston Ranked As Having The Best Teachers In NJto make a great teacher,” said Miron. “High

    school level teaching means that they need

    expertise in their field, but that is a dime a

    dozen. The tough part is how teachers share

    Niche.com’s rankings are unique

    because much of the data and many of 

    the reviews come straight from the par-

    ents and students, allowing a more

    hands-on view of the school, rather than

     just using stat isti cs and info rmat ion

    found in surveys and censuses. It also

    weighs a variety of different factors, with

    each factor accounting for no more than

    15 percent of the ranking, as to get awell-rounded view of the school. More

    Drivers who travel between the

    United States and Canada or plan on

    renting a car for an internationalbusiness trip or vacation should understand

    that driving rules vary from country to coun-

    try. One noticeable difference is the side of 

    the road vehicles travel on, as well as the

    measurement system used for calculating

    speed and distance. Although speedometerswill often feature both mph (miles per hour)

    and kmh (kilometers per hour), it helps to

    have a rough idea of the conversion between

    the two speed measurements. Every mile perhour in speed translates to roughly 1.7 kilo-

    meters per hour. Therefore, if the posted

    speed limit is 55 mph in the United States,

    expect to travel at 88.5 kph in Canada.

    Always heed speed limit postings and regu-

    larly check your vehicle’s speedometer toensure you are driving at or below the legal

    limit. Traffic offenses that might be tolerated

    in one country may not be tolerated across

    the border, so always obey the local laws

    when behind the wheel.

    illburn High School has been ranked the thir-

    teenth-best school in the country, according to

    a survey done by “Newsweek.”

    “We are consistently ranked high in various surveys,”said William Miron, the school principal. “Even still, it

    was flattering to be ranked so high.”

    “We have a great community,” he continued, when

    asked about what he thought made the school so great

    and worthy of such a high ranking. “By community, I

    mean the town itself, the parents and students and facul-

    ty. We have high expectations, and the parents have

    lofty goals for their children – and the students have

    lofty goals for themselves. Even while we can stress

    things that aren’t academics, the students strive to do as

    well as they can. They are all going to college, this com-bination just helps. When they are not working on aca-

    demics, they know that their classmates are, and that

    helps them stay on track. It is a nice environment for

    learning; everything they do is in the hope that they are

    going to do as well as they can, and they will then excel.

    They are constantly doing as well as they can.”

    According to “Newsweek,” Millburn boasts a gradu-

    ation rate of 100 percent. Of that number, 93.5 percent

    of students are deemed ‘college ready,’ and 99.5 percent

    of students go on to college after graduation. According

    to Miron, every student who graduated this year will be

    going on to college.

    Millburn High School also has an extensive

    advanced placement (AP) class program, meaning thatstudents can take classes and receive college credits

    after passing an exam at the end of the year. According

    to Miron, there are 27 different AP classes offered at the

    school; he estimates that about 80 percent of students

    will take at least one AP-level course during their time

    in the school. The average student AP exam score is a

    4.47, according to Newsweek. The exams are ranked on

    a scale of one to five, with five being the highest grade

    attainable.

    “It challenges our students,” said Miron. “It gives

    them something to shoot for and to be proud of.”Students also regularly score well on the SATs and

    ACTs, standardized tests that are very important when

    college admissions roll around. The average SAT score

    is 1,897, out of 2,400 possible points. The SAT tests

    math, writing, and reading comprehension. The average

    ACT score is 27, out of a potential score of 32. In addi-

    tion to the subjects tested on the SAT, the ACT also tests

    students on science.

    Miron also says that Millburn places an emphasis on

    electives, as so not to overwhelm students with academ-

    ics. Many electives are academically inclined, such as

    elective history, math or science programs, but there are

    more creative outlets offered as well, such as classes

    that focus on art or music.“Overall, we have a pretty wide variety of choices for

    them, and we try to accommodate as much as we can,”

    said Miron. “If a teacher comes up with an idea, we try

    to see if there are enough students who are interested in

    taking it. We do our best to challenge them while

    accommodating their academic interests.”

    The school enrolls students from grades 9 – 12. There

    are 1,522 students in attendance.

    Millburn High School was also credited as having the

    best teachers in the nation by a study done at

    Niche.com. More information about the Newsweek sur-vey can be found here: http://www.newsweek.com/high-

    Those interested in socializing with folks who keep thewheels of the museum turning at Edison’s 19thCentury factory complex in West Orange can attend

    the Muckers’ Ball fundraiser on Sat., Oct. 3. It promises atradition of food, drink, music and dancing under the big tent

    - a location where Thomas Edison and his Muckers hadsome great celebrations. For more info on the Muckers’ Ballcontact the Friends of Thomas Edison Historical ParkFoTENHP www.foedison.org; call 973-736-2916; or [email protected].

    Touring the legendary work site of Thomas Edison andthe growing curiosity in Steampunk makes this NationalHistorical Park NHP in West Orange even more uniquelyremarkable today.

    Steampunk is a subgenre of devotees that are fascinatedby retro science fiction, technology and artistic designs of the late 19th-century that ignited with the force of steam-

    powered machinery. Steampunk channels the era's perspec-tive of those that lived during this futuristic thinkingVictorian and American Wild West age. Steampunk is aboutrevisiting its own distinct fashion, culture, architectural styleand art. It was a time of colorful futuristic storytelling fromH. G. Wells and Jules Verne. The Thomas Alva Edison fac-tory laboratories and his Victorian Glenmont estate home inWest Orange are in themselves Steampunk time capsulesmaintained by our National Park Service. It is also furtherpreserved by private funds, foundations and the Friends of TENHP that do dedicated fundraising where it is needed.They provide the additional renovations, enhancements and

    special project exhibits that are not covered in the NHPbudget. The FoTENHP also promotes the era’s pastimes of gardening, fashion, advertisements and the music that wereconnected to these Edison inventions in true spirit.

    Coincidentally, the Victorian age of the late 19th Century

    was also the pinnacle years of Thomas Edison’s career thatmade him the world’s famous wizard of invention capable of moving ideas off from the science fiction category to theworld of tomorrow. In 1897 H.G. Wells created his sciencefiction masterpiece The War Of The Worlds. The Hearstnewspaper group commissioned a sequel to follow it.Science editor - Garrett Putnam Serviss would write the nextstory. This sequel follow up was entitled Edison’s Conquestof Mars which appeared in Feb. of 1898. Thomas Edisonbecame the heroic character of this science fiction world.The iconic persona of Edison was a name that lent thebelievability factor to a new fiction genre – the space tech-

    no-thriller. Serviss’ book was the first space battle to everappear in print.The West Orange laboratory complex was built in 1887.

    The facilities were well equipped with many kinds of machinery and instruments, with a factory supply of materi-als from around the world that employed dedicated and care-fully-chosen workers. Employees that worked at Edison’sfactory laboratories did not need to read a science fictionbook to believe that Thomas Edison had the imagination totake them into the future with his inventions and ideas.There was a lot of excitement working for Thomas Edisonthat attracted the best talent pool of employees not only

    locally but from around the world. This pool also includedgreat performing artists for his film and music studio pro-ductions. Edison’s closest workers were his engineering anddevelopment team that he fondly called his Muckers. Therewere great employee celebrations too that went along withthe hard work that helped produce the grist for futuristic pulpfiction in its day.

    DRIVEWAYS

    New Jersey Blood Services hasplanned the following blood

    drives:

    Sept. 20- Seventh Day Adventist Church

    in Dover, 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.; FlandersUnited Presbyterian in Flanders, 9 a.m. to1:30 p.m..

    Sept. 25- Madison Area YMCA,

    Madison, 2 p.m. to 8 p.m.

    Sept. 28- Knights of Columbus, Netcong,

    3 p.m. to 9 p.m.

    New Jersey Blood Services, a divisionof New York Blood Center (NYBC) is

    asking for help to maintain an adequate

    supply of all blood types, but especially

    O-negative – the “universal” blood which

    can be transfused into anyone in an emer-gency. In addition, hundreds of addition-

    al blood drives need to be scheduled to

    meet projected hospital demand. Current

    inventory of several blood types is run-

    ning below the desired target level.

    “It’s simple: hospital patient demandfor blood often outpaces our best efforts

    to recruit donors and schedule blood

    drives,” said NYBC Executive Director

    of Donor Recruitment Andrea Cefarelli.

    “There are always reasons but we have to

    overcome that for the sake of hospital

    patients who need us.”“This is one of the toughest times of 

    the year,” Cefarelli added. “We’re asking

    for our dedicated supporters to roll up

    their sleeves to make sure we’re able to

    provide our hospital partners with what-

    ever they need to take care of theirpatients.”

    Blood products have a short shelf life

     – from five to 42 days, so constant

    replenishment is necessary. Each and

    every day there are patients who dependon the transfusion of red blood cells,

    platelets and plasma to stay alive. Butblood and blood products can’t be manu-

    factured. They can only come from vol-

    unteer blood donors who take an hour to

    attend a blood drive or visit a donor cen-ter.

    To donate blood or for information on

    how to organize a blood drive call 1-800-

    933-2566; visit: www.nybloodcenter.org.
