honor roll
By HEATHER FIORE
The Sun
Lawrence Township Public
Schools have reached a landmark.
For the first time, Lawrence
High School was placed on the
College Board’s 4th Annual AP
District Honor Roll. LHS
achieved the honor for increasing
access to AP course work while
simultaneously maintaining or
increasing the percentage of stu-
dents earning scores of 3 or high-
er on AP exams.
LTPS is one of 477 school dis-
tricts – out of the tens of thou-
sands of school districts in the
United States and Canada – to re-
ceive the honor. New Jersey has
36 school districts that earned
this distinction, only two of
which are in Mercer County.
“We're really excited about it
because it's such a foundational
piece of who we are,” said
Jonathan Dauber, principal at
LHS. “We can get more kids in-
volved in these high-end learning
opportunities. It’s a real honor to

The Lakeview Child Center’s
Hamilton branch was recently
designated as one of Michele
Obama’s Let’s Move! Child Care
facilities, prompting LCC’s other
five centers in Mercer County to
work toward achieving the same
distinction.
Hamilton’s center received the
designation for its efforts to pre-
vent childhood obesity, and is one
of only 20 childcare centers in
New Jersey to receive the recog-
nition out of the 4,300 registered
state programs.
“This recognition solidifies
Lakeview Hamilton as a model
for building a healthier future for
children and families across Mer-
cer County,” said LuAnn Wood,
vice president of Lakeview Child
Center. “Each of our six centers
is working toward achieving Let’s
Move! Child Care recognition in
2014.”
Let’s Move! is a program that
was developed by the first lady in
2009 to solve the epidemic of
childhood obesity within a gener-
ation. The Let’s Move! Child Care
initiative is targeted toward
younger children, with a goal of
implementing key nutritional
and physical activity goals within
childcare centers nationwide, ac-
cording to healthykidshealthyfu-
ture.org.
Lakeview Hamilton received
recognition for its exceptional
work promoting and implement-
ing the five goals of the initiative
– increasing physical activity, lim-
iting screen time, serving fruits
or vegetables instead of fried
foods, replacing sugary drinks
with water and healthy drinks,

The Dogwood Garden Club of
Princeton announced that Mar-
garet Roach will be the guest
speaker at the annual luncheon
on Thursday, Dec. 5 at 11 a.m. at
Greenacres Country Club in
Lawrenceville.
Roach will be presenting “A
Garden for 365 Days.” It will be a
real treat for this acclaimed lec-
turer and writer on gardening to
be a part of our community that
day. Roach has won the American
Horticultural Society's Frances
Jones Parker Award and the Gar-
den Club of America's Crystal
Bowl for Excellence.
She is a dynamic and enter-
taining speaker, and this will be a
real highlight of our program-
ming for the year.
The event is the annual schol-
arship fund-raiser that allows the
Garden Club to support and en-
hance so many of our communi-
ty's gardening activities.
This enables the Dogwood Gar-
den Club of Princeton to annual-
ly give scholarship awards to hor-
ticultural students at Mercer
County Community College in
addition to the other programs
we are pleased to donate to.
The club's fund supports week-
ly Horticultural Therapy, con-
ducted for residents of Merwick
Care and Rehab Center. The resi-
dents of Merwick are provided
with flowers that they can
arrange for their enjoyment.
The club also actively partici-
pates in decorating the Morven
Museum and Gardens annual
"Festival of Trees.”
Every year, the club reviews
our capacity to support conserva-
tion and gardening associations
in our area. Among others, last
year, we were proud to contribute
to Isles, MCCC, Farmers against
Hunger, the Barbara Sigmund
Garden, the Princeton Township
Garden and the Drumthwacket
Governer's Mansion.
This is our community and we
have long viewed it as a principal
objective to take part in commu-
nity beautification where it is
most desirable.
The opportunity to share our
knowledge and pass on our en-
thusiasm animates all of our ac-
tivities. It is the future that we
plan for. We are delighted to host
this wonderful event and ask for
your support to make it the con-
tinuing success it has been.

T
he holiday season has arrived.
And that means that many
good-hearted people and organ-
izations will be gathering food, cloth-
ing, toys, money and other items for
those less fortunate.
At The Sun, we want to help make
your event as successful as possible.
But to do that, we need your help.
Many retailers count on “Black Fri-
day” to help put their business “in the
black” for the year. If holiday sales are
strong, they have a good overall year. If
sales are soft, they struggle to get by.
The same theory can hold true for
nonprofits and other groups that de-
pend on the public’s generosity during
the holiday season to see them through
the rest of the year. People, naturally,
are more giving during this time of the
year. So, in the coming weeks, you’ll
see bell-ringers, donation drives and a
lot of other efforts to help those in
need.
We salute everyone who holds a
drive to help those in need. But we also
want to help make those efforts as
grand and successful as possible.
To do that, we need to know about
your event well in advance (at least two
weeks is best). We need to know what
types of items you are trying to collect,
who will benefit from the drive, and,
most importantly, how people can get
involved to help you.
Email is the best way to send us this
information, and you’ll find our news
email address throughout this paper.
Then, after we get your information,
we’ll take it from there. We’ll get it into
the paper and let everyone in town
know what it is you are trying to ac-
complish and how they can be a part of
it.
Many families are still struggling
with the economy. There always are
people in need.
Let us help you to help them. Send
us your event information and let’s
make this a big donation year.
in our opinion
Holiday helpers
It’s the season to help others; let us know about your fundraiser or drive
The need is there
From devastating storms to an economy
that still isn’t humming along, the need for
donations this holiday period is strong.
Tell us about your fundraising effort or
donation drive, and we’ll tell everyone
else.
The League of Women Voters of
Lawrence Township will present “Storm-
ing for the Vote: Hurricane Sandy and the
Election,” a powerful 20-minute documen-
tary sponsored and produced by the
League of Women Voters of New Jersey
about Hurricane Sandy’s impact on the
2012 presidential election in New Jersey.
The public is invited to attend this free
screening, co-sponsored by the Lawrence
Library. The program will take place on
Wednesday, Dec. 4 at 7 p.m. at Lawrence Li-
brary, located at the intersection of Darrah
Lane and Business Route One in Lawrence
Township. Mercer County Clerk Paula Sol-
lami Covello, will join the post-screening
discussion.
“This film captures the obstacles New
Jersey voters faced when Hurricane Sandy
hit just a little over one week prior to the
November 2012 General Election,” said Sue
Varga, president of the Lawrence League.
“The film highlights the resilience and de-
termination of New Jersey voters. When
faced with unthinkable obstacles, they re-
fused to give up their voice in the voting
booth and, with the help of the League,
election officials, the state, voting rights ex-
perts and a number of other volunteers,
cast their ballots.”
“Storming for the Vote: Hurricane
Sandy and the Election” is a documentary
film about advocates, government officials
and an energized and motivated public
whose efforts following the devastation of
Hurricane Sandy ensured that citizens dis-
placed or disrupted by the storm were able
to exercise their right to vote. The film
deepens the public’s understanding of the
election process, policies and reforms post
Sandy.
“This documentary film reveals that for
New Jersey citizens, having the opportuni-
ty to cast a vote was a comfort, a palpable
sense of relief, a moment of normalcy in
an otherwise chaotic and disorienting
week, and most importantly an inspiring
testament to the fact that participating in
the democratic process unites and serves
all of us,” Varga said.
Refreshments will be served. Registra-
tion is suggested, but not required. To reg-
ister, call the library at (609) 989-6920 or
email [email protected]. For more infor-
mation about the League of Women Voters
of Lawrence Township, email Sue Varga,
president, at [email protected].

Lawrenceville resident S.L.
Baker is presenting her painting
exhibit, “Being Still,” at the
Lawrence Library, located at 2751
Brunswick Pike in Lawrenceville,
throughout the month of Decem-
ber.
There will be an opening recep-
tion on Sunday, Dec. 8 from 1 to 4
p.m.
The paintings that appear on
Baker's canvases are a confluence
of Buddhist thought, social and
familial concern. Working mostly
in acrylic on canvas and using
fingers instead of brushes, a mo-
ment, a word, an injustice, a joy
becomes a color, a texture, a line,
another language. The paintings
are often influenced by medita-
tion practice.
Born in Princeton, Baker is a
lifelong resident of the area and a
retired public school teacher. She
has two adult children, two
grandchildren and another on his
way. She lives in Lawrenceville
with her husband, who is a pro-
fessional musician and song-
writer. Baker is also a published
poet and lyricist.

“Lakeview is determined to
fight childhood obesity,” Wood
said. “We have a responsibility as
a childcare provider to instill
healthy habits in our children
and help them and their families
make positive lifestyle changes.”
LCC has an office in
Lawrenceville, which is one of
Lakeview’s other five centers in
Mercer County that will be re-
ceiving recognition next year.
Susan Zaidman, director of
Lakeview at Lawrenceville, said
the staff members have been
going through a lot of training.
“We are participating in a col-
laborative sponsored by the Cen-
ters for Disease Control,
NEMOURS and the state Depart-
ment of Health, Office of Nutri-
tion and Fitness,” she said.
“Through this series of trainings,
we are evaluating our policies
and creating improvement
plans.”
Zaidman said the center is also
working toward achieving the
five goals of Let’s Move! Child
Care.
“We just revised our menus to
meet a few of the five goals,” she
said. “In January, we will host a
family event to help get the fami-
lies excited about the initiative.
Later in the year, we will provide
nutrition education and ‘Kids in
the Kitchen’ cooking activities for
the preschool children through a
partnership with Robert Wood
Johnson Hamilton's SHAPE-
DOWN program.”
According to The White House
Task Force on Childhood Obesity,
more than half of obese children
become overweight by the age of
2, and approximately one in five
children is overweight or obese
by his or her sixth birthday.
The LCC is an affiliate of
Robert Wood Johnson University
Hospital Hamilton. It opened in
1985 and operates a network of
six childcare centers throughout
central New Jersey, including
Ewing, Hamilton, Lawrenceville,
Mercerville, Robbinsville and
West Windsor.

be a part of this.”
Reaching these goals indicates
that the district is successfully
identifying motivated, academi-
cally prepared students who are
likely to benefit from rigorous AP
course work.
“We are delighted the excep-
tional work of our high school
students, staff and administra-
tion is recognized for the
growth,” Superintendent Crystal
Edwards said. “Lawrence High’s
AP program has realized the in-
creased number of students tak-
ing advantage of the more rigor-
ous classes, and these students
will reap the benefits of the chal-
lenge and will find themselves
better equipped for college.”
Since 2011, LTPS has increased
the number of students partici-
pating in AP by 23.4 percent while
improving the percentage of stu-
dents earning AP Exam scores of
3 or higher by 4 percent, Dauber
said.
“The idea behind the whole
thing is getting more kids to not
only take AP courses, but to also
take and be successful at the AP
exam level where kids are obtain-
ing college credit,” he said. “Our
whole (point) here is diversity; it's
who we are. We’re the most di-
verse district in Mercer County,
and to be able to involve more
kids that don't come from the tra-
ditional AP background (Cau-
casians and Asians) and get more
minorities involved – not only
taking courses, but finding suc-
cess in passing the exam – is the
whole point,” Dauber said.
Data from 2013 shows that
among African American, His-
panic and Native American stu-
dents with a high degree of readi-
ness for AP, only about half are
participating because their
schools do not always offer the AP
course for which they have poten-
tial.
Lawrence Township Public
Schools is committed to expand-
ing the availability of AP courses
among prepared and motivated
students of all backgrounds,
Dauber said.
Currently, LHS offers 18 AP
courses that cover a variety of
subjects, including science, math-
ematics, history, language arts
and English.
“We have a few new ones com-
ing out next year, too,” Dauber
said. “We’re continuing to push
in world language, so there will
be AP Chinese and AP Spanish,
things we haven't had.”
Expansion of the AP program
at school districts is a large piece
of what the College Board pays
special attention to, according to
Trevor Packer, College Board’s
senior vice president of AP and
instruction.
“We applaud the extraordinary
efforts of the devoted teachers
and administrators in this dis-
trict who are offering more stu-
dents the opportunity to engage
in rigorous college-level course
work,” Packer said. “These out-
comes are a powerful testament
to educators’ belief that a more
diverse population of students is
ready for the sort of rigor that
will prepare them for success in
college.”
Inclusion on the 4th Annual AP
District Honor Roll is based on
the examination of three years of
AP data, from 2011 to 2013.
To achieve the honor, districts
must increase participation and
access to AP courses by at least 4
percent in large districts, at least
6 percent in medium districts and
at least 11 percent in small dis-
tricts; increase or maintain the
percentage of exams taken by
African American,
Hispanic/Latino, and American
Indian/Alaska Native students;
and improve performance levels
when comparing the percentage
of students in 2013 scoring a 3 or
higher to those in 2011, unless the
district has already attained a
performance level at which more
than 70 percent of its AP students
are scoring a 3 or higher, accord-
ing to the College Board website.
The complete 4th Annual AP
District Honor Roll can be found
at LTPS.org/APHonorRoll.
