The Rumor About Moving Students Into the Mary Ethel Costello Property Is True

GLOUCESTER CITY, NJ (November 11, 2026) — For some time, a rumor about reopening the abandoned Mary Ethel Costello School has circulated throughout the community. The Gloucester City Board of Education deeded the building, assessed at more than $1 million, to the Gloucester City taxpayers several years ago. The school was vacated in 2017- 2018 when students from the elementary school were relocated to the new $90 million Gloucester City Middle School a few blocks away.

Raider football leaves it all on the field in playoff

CAMDEN – It was not the ending to the football season the Ocean City Red Raiders wanted, but their effort and “resiliency” were not lost on head coach Sean Matthews. The Raiders’ playoff run came to an end against Camden High School after a gutsy performance on defense to keep a high-powered Panther offense at bay for most of the game. Ocean City eventually fell to Camden 24-7 on Nov. 6, but not before leaving everything out on the field.

The Neo-Colonization of a School District Pt. 3

Under any fascist power structure, controlling resources is equally as important as controlling people. I’d argue that when one controls resources (e.g., economic, intellectual, social, etc.), one controls the people who depend on those resources to survive.
