Mullica Hill Fourth Grader Delivers Schoolwide Message Using AAC

New Jersey guidance sets out a responsibility for schools when assistive technology is needed: if a student’s IEP team determines it is necessary, the district or charter school must provide the devices or services at no cost to parents, and must supply items specified in the IEP as soon as possible, according to the New Jersey Department of Education. That policy provides context for communication supports in schools, but the report about Anthony Knauer does not say whether his device is specified in an IEP or how it was funded.

DIAA 3A Playoff Scenarios entering Week 11

We know the 8 teams who will make up the Class 3A field, but there's still room for a lot of changes in the order. The simplest solution would be Middletown defeating Appoquinimink on Friday night to clinch Class 3A-1 directly, and not avoid a tiebreaker, which they'd still win unless they gave up at least 32 points to the Jags in a loss.

DIAA 1A Playoff Scenarios entering Week 11

Dickinson ending their long playoff drought would go a long way to simplifying the final week of the Class 1A season. If Dickinson defeats winless A.I. duPont, the Rams will be in the postseason for the first time since the 1990s, keep their hopes for a district title alive, and shut the door on any teams making a desperate pitch to the playoffs.

The AIS 2027 Renovations, a Turn for the Class of 2028

The Agnes Irwin School has confirmed that renovations will take place after Commencement in June 2027. The plan for the 2027-2028 school year is not entirely known, but we have been given pieces of information to help us gain a better understanding on how our student life will be next year. In my opinion, I feel as if a renovation is needed, but the complete change in our schedule and classroom locations is an inconvenience. Additionally, this renovation will take place during the entirety of my senior year, which eliminates our lounge.

West Chester’s Fight for College Affordability

According to NCAN’s (the National College Attainment Network) assessment of universities in 2023-24, only 32% of four year institutions were affordable to the average student. Many have to join the military in order to afford this heavy cost, with the U.S Department of Veterans Affairs reporting in 2019 that 1/3rd of service members used their GI Bill benefits to pursue an education. Pennsylvania politicians and APSCUF are fighting to make college more affordable to the average population through the PA Promise.
