RP at the Model UN

Recently Model UNers attended the Global Citizen Model UN conference in New York City. Over 3000 students were in attendance from all over the world. Opening ceremonies were held in the United Nations General Assembly and our students were in awe at being allowed in the room where ambassadors and dignitaries go while in session. The students did very well in their respective committees, so much so that four of the six were recognized for their efforts as outstanding delegates. These are the only individual awards given out so needless to say it was awesome for the students to be honored. Jalen Lacy and Zamin Mirza were recognized in UNOOSA (United Nations Office for Outer Space). Giuliana Gonzalez was recognized in WIPO (World Intellectual Property Organization), and Marina Giakamozis was recognized in IMO (International Maritime Organization). Jalen, Giulian and Zamin were each asked by the chairs of their committees to speak at closing ceremonies in front of EVERYONE. All three did it with ease, although I'm sure their nerves were trying to get the best of them. During closing ceremonies, Martin Luther King III spoke about humanitarian efforts and continuing his father's legacy. He was a wonderful speaker and the whole experience was amazing for everyone.

Student Donating Blood
Blood Drive at RPJSHS
10/27/2023
The Future Health Professionals Club sponsored the first blood drive with Vitalant on October 11th in the Auxiliary Gym. Over 85 students and staff signed up to donate. Of those, 65 individuals were registered and 39 pints of whole blood were collected as well as 3 power red donations. “Whole blood can help many types of patients, especially those undergoing surgery and trauma patients. Power Red donations pack double the impact because the automated procedure collects a concentrated donation of red cells that can help twice as many patients. Power Reds are especially helpful to trauma victims, newborn babies and sickle cell patients.” The Future Health Professionals hope to run a second blood drive in the spring.

“No Borders” Multicultural Event a huge success!
05/31/2023
For the first time in many years, on May 31st, students at the JSHS held a formal celebration of our great diversity with an assembly called “No Borders”. This was a joint collaboration between several senior members of the National Honor Society (Eric Ocampo, Isabela Gonzalez, Aamna Irfan, Gauri Bhandari, and Maya Craft) and junior Shirley Peralta-Ortega. These student leaders developed a plan and followed through on advertising, auditions, rehearsals, and planning the details of actual assembly. The day included face-painting flags from around the world and students wearing clothing to represent their cultures. Students performed solos as well as group numbers with vocal and dance performances in front of an enthusiastic crowd. We can’t wait to do it again next year and establish this tradition for our students. All photos by Aamna Irfan

On Tuesday, April 4th, the JSHS hosted speaker Robb Holladay. Mr. Holladay is a dynamic mental health speaker for junior high and high school students that travels the USA to share his important messages in a way that is entertaining and informative. He spoke to our high school students about the hazards of vaping, as well as the marketing techniques employed by the tobacco companies to gain teens as customers for life. He shared personal experiences as well as a close look at the risks associated with vaping devices. For our junior high students, Mr. Holladay spoke about the various social media “land mines” that students face today, including technology addiction; bullying and hateful posting, oversharing information, and the future ramifications of a social media digital footprint on college and career. The mantra was “Say it…forget it. Post it…regret it.” We hope that all our students enjoyed having Mr. Holladay and that his important messages met their intended audience.

“Earn Your Feathers” Program Debut
01/17/2023
January 2023 was the official launch of the new “Earn Your Feathers” program for our 7th and 8th grade students. The “Earn Your Feathers” program is a part of a Positive Behavior Intervention System (PBIS). PBIS is a framework used in junior high schools to promote positive behavior and create a safe and supportive learning environment. The framework focuses on using positive reinforcement to encourage desired behaviors and improve school culture. The importance of positive reinforcement in school culture cannot be overstated. When students are regularly recognized for positive behavior, they are more likely to continue to engage in those behaviors. Students will feel seen, valued, and respected, which can lead to improved self-esteem and overall well-being. Furthermore, positive reinforcement can reduce unwanted behaviors and create a more positive and productive learning environment for all students. The “Earn Your Feathers” program is of course a play on our beloved mascot, the Scarlet Bird. All staff members were given a set of red paper feathers (handmade!) to present to students for positive behavior. We want to recognize the students who help others without being asked, participate in taking care of our building, and engage in proactive behaviors with their peers. In just one week, the buzz is around the building for earning feathers…students are asking for a feather instead of extra credit! We had our first drawing on Friday, January 13th during 7th and 8th lunch. With lots of fanfare, we rolled out “the birdcage” and drew 4 lucky feathers! Those students had the opportunity to choose from a variety of gift cards as their prize - all of them chose Dunkin Donuts! The positive energy and excitement was palpable as students cheered on their winning peers, and no doubt hoped that their feathers would be pulled next! We are so very grateful for the generous donations from businesses around Ridgefield Park and JSHS parents who have donated to this worthy endeavor. If you would like to donate rewards for this program, please reach out to Mrs. Cavins, Principal or Mrs. Pucciarelli, Dean of 7th & 8th Programs.

On Thursday, May 13th, 8 of JSHS seniors became the first cohort of students graduating from the Early College Program. This was the first group of students to participate in the program that allows students to earn their associate's degree while earning their high school diploma at the same time. The program, which starts in the students' junior year, has the students taking high school courses in the morning and then attending Bergen Community College in the afternoon. Students completing the program have the ability to enroll in a 4 year college program as a junior straight out of high school both shortening the duration they are in school to complete an advanced degree and, since the district currently covers 1/2 the tuition, making college more affordable for students.
