NPHS Shore Reunion

We are sad to report that Joan McCarthy Williamson
passed away after a short illness on Nov. 1, 2011. 
Joan was the chairman of the Shore Reunion for many years
and she did a wonderful job and will be greatly missed.

Unfortunately there will not be a reunion scheduled for this year
unless someone comes forward and offers their time
to be a chairman and form a new committee.

Information and records are available from previous reunions.

If interested in continuing this successful event
please contact the Alumni Association
or contact Fred Sheeler at 908-756 4918

NPHS CLASS OF 1950 DONATES $500
TO SCHOLARSHIP FUND

On October 15, 2011 at the NPHS Alumni Hall of Fame Diner, the Class of 1950
made a generous donation of $500.00 to the NPHS Alumni Associations
scholarship fund in honor of Mario Caruso. Art Fritz, represented the class in making the donation and a tribute to Mario.  The donation was to recognize Mario's 
"Contribution and Devoted Efforts for NPHS
and his leadership in the Alumni Association." 
Mario Caruso was honored posthumously at the Hall of Dinner for his long service, leadership and vision for the NPHS Alumni Association,
and the Alumni Association's annual scholarships will now bear his name. 
Thanks to the Class of 1950, the scholarship fund was substantially increased.

Letter from Dr. Ernest G. Jaeger,
2011 NPHS Hall of Fame inducted Teacher

I would like to again thank you, the members of the Alumni Association and the Hall of Fame committee for the splendid Hall of Fame induction dinner on October 15.  My family and I had a very enjoyable time and we all appreciate the hospitality extended to us that evening.

As I said that evening, I salute and thank all of you who have continued the traditions established by Mario Caruso over time.  I know putting together this year's dinner could not have been easy, but your had work and dedication produced an outstanding event.  Mario certainly would have been proud.

I am honored to be a member of the Alumni Hall of Fame and I thank all of you at the Alumni Association again for this recognition.

Sincere thanks and best regards

Ernest Jaeger
