ketball, football and lacrosse, so
when he was first diagnosed, a
group of parents from his sev-
enth-grade lacrosse team reached
out to Go4theGoal Foundation to
order a few hundred neon yellow
shoelaces to distribute to kids
around town to show both sup-
port for him and his family and
to raise awareness about pedi-
atric cancer in the community.
The laces went on sale earlier
this month at the schools in the
borough.
So far, more than 5,000 pairs
have been sold, and the orders are
still piling in, said Jean-Anne
McMahon of the foundation.
At the varsity level, the Had-
donfield Memorial High School
boys and girls basketball teams
are wearing the laces for the 2012
season.
Every single boys traveling
team in Haddonfield is wearing
the laces, she said, as well as
teams in Moorestown, Mt. Laurel,
Haddon Township, Monroe Town-
ship, Willingboro and Harrison
Township.
Even at Penn State University,
the laces can be seen on some
finely tuned athletes. The univer-
sity mens varsity baseball team
is wearing the neon laces for
Jason this season.
The laces are also making their
way down to the shore, as the
Ocean City girls traveling basket-
ball team has decided to don the
specialized gear for their upcom-
ing season as well.
The Penn State University in-
tramural lacrosse field hockey
team will also sport the laces for
their upcoming season.
The numbers just keep grow-
ing, McMahon said. So many
spring sports teams and leagues
are also planning to Lace Up.
Go4theGoals neon yellow
shoelaces are on sale for $3 per
pair at many Haddonfield retail-
ers, including Haddonfield Run-
ning Company and HerSport.
Proceeds will benefit both
Jason and his family and the
Go4theGoal Foundation.
The laces are also on sale at the
Go4TheGoal Foundation website
at www.go4thegoal.org/shop.

The Haddonfield Sun
Its unfamiliar territory for the
Haddonfield Board of Education,
as its members are in the advan-
tageous position of having more
money than they know what do
with thanks to more than $150,000
in windfall in revenue realized
from an increase in state aid.
The board debated giving the
money back to the taxpayers for a
tax break in 2012-2013 or keeping
the school tax levy at a flat rate
and using the money for internal,
one-time cost improvements
within the district.
New Jersey released its school
district state aid figures late
Thursday evening, Feb. 23, and
Haddonfield found itself with
more than a $200,000 increase
over the 2011-2012 figure of
$637,598.
Prior to the budget season
starting, business administrator
Andy Hall said he counted on the
governor giving them the same
amount as last year.
In his state of the state address,
Gov. Christie pledged additional
funding to school districts for
next year. Christie has raised
state aid each year since drasti-
cally cutting aid to schools two
years ago.
Hall said the revenue figures
for 2012-2013 sit at a little more
than $33.08 million with the
added state aid and a 0 percent
school-tax increase. Superintend-
ent of Schools Rich Perry report-
ed even with a number of one-
time capital and technology im-
provement costs, the appropria-
tions for 2012-2013 sit at about
$22.83 million.
With the additional funding,
Perry said the buildings and
grounds committee suggested
several capital improvements
throughout the district all one-
time costs that have been put off
for years because of budget con-
straints.
The committee suggested fun-
neling more than $317,000 for
these projects into the 2012-2013
budget.
The largest ticket item is the
repainting of the Haddonfield
Memorial High School auditori-
um, which would cost about
$150,000.
There are other scheduled re-
pairs and renovations for all of
the schools in the district.
The technology committee also
laid out a three-year technology
improvement plan for the dis-
trict, which includes going wire-
less for the entire district, pur-
chasing classroom cart sets of
iPads for grades four through
eight, Smart Boards for first-
through third-grades and provid-
ing multimedia projection sys-
tems at all levels.
These initiatives total near
$190,000 to complete, Perry re-
ported.
Including an additional $50,000
for improvements to the library
such as installing new carpet and
removing some book stacks plus
adding in $41,000 to adjust for a $6
million decrease in borough rata-
bles, the district still must decid-
ed what to do with $161,000 in rev-
enue.
This is unfamiliar territory,
quite frankly, for us to have these
options, BOE President Steve
Weinstein said.
Board member Joe Ehrhardt
suggested giving a tax break to
residents using the money, even if
its only a small amount.
Board vice president Glenn
Moramarco suggested using
some of the funding to hire a
part-time or full-time kinder-
garten teacher for Elizabeth Had-
don Elementary School, as the
classrooms could be quite crowd-
ed next year at that grade level.
Weinstein didnt reject the
idea, but strongly suggested the
board not use the funding on any
reoccurring costs. The state aid
figures fluctuate too much from
year to year, he said, and could be
cut again in the future.
The board agreed to keep the
school tax increase at a flat rate
for 2012-2013 and asked Perry to
come back to the board next week
with suggestions on how to use
the additional revenues.
The board will host a special
meeting on Thursday, March 1, at
the high school library at 7:30
p.m. to presumably pass the pre-
liminary budget.

letters to the editor
in our opinion
O
n the surface, two bills recent-
ly introduced in Congress
make sense. They would re-
strict the number of fees airlines
could charge. After all, who hasnt
been on a plane where everyone is
wrestling to get overhead storage
space for their 73 carry-on bags they
brought to avoid baggage fees?
Problem is, this is America, and
America has achieved economic great-
ness because it allows, for the most
part, businesses to compete without
many rules. Once government gets
into regulating things that dont relate
to, for example, safety, the whole sys-
tem gets messed up.
Naturally, the airlines arent in favor
of these bills. Some of them already
waive baggage fees for one or two
pieces.
Others correctly point out that,
charging fees, while keeping fares
lower, gives consumers a choice. In-
deed, if you travel without checked
bags, you probably would opt for the
airlines that offer lower fares, but
charge for checked baggage. Its less
money out of their pockets for the
same service they would receive on
any airline.
Congressional supporters of the
bills point out that consumers dont
like the fees. Well, of course, they
dont. No one likes fees.
If Congress would check, were sure
it would find that people dont like
high airline ticket prices, either. Or, in
keeping with the air travel theme,
parking rates that rise as you get clos-
er or more convenient parking spots at
an airport. Or high-priced food in air-
port restaurants.
Sure, some air travellers can feel
like they are being nickeled and dimed
to death. But its their choice to fly the
airlines that charge these fees. There
are any number of ways to avoid the
fees, they just choose not to do so.
This is a business model, pricing
choice. Its what keeps businesses
competitive. Congress should stay
away.
Keep air fee bills grounded
Congress should let the free enterprise system work
Hands off private business
Congress has better things to do with
its time than to get involved with air-
line fees. Let consumers make choic-
es and the airlines make business
decisions.
Before privatized services,
check product produced
If services are to be privatized, the com-
missioners need to look carefully at the
product produced. Several streets have
been dug up in the area of Cedar/Farwood
and Longwood, and the way the road was
repaved with asphalt is a disgrace.
No one from the borough ever looks at
the finished product and deems it unaccept-
able, forcing the contractor correct the poor
quality of work. There is no excuse for not
inspecting what you expect before the con-
tractor is paid.
- A.J. Errichetto
Bancroft will hold two free workshops
next month: Bullying From a Legal and
Educational Perspective, on March 7,
and Effective Goal Writing for IEP Suc-
cess, on March 21.
The sessions are part of the nonprofit
organizations Developmental Disabilities
Workshop Series, which offers free educa-
tion and training for parents and profes-
sionals from fall through spring. A non-
profit leader in programs for people with
neurological challenges, Bancroft offers
the workshop series as a public service.
Sessions are held on Wednesdays from
6:30 to 8:30 p.m. in the Farrington build-
ing on Bancrofts Haddonfield Campus at
425 Kings Highway East in Haddonfield.
Were pleased to offer this popular se-
ries for the eighth year, featuring some of
our top clinical experts and thought-lead-
ers in our field, said Bancroft President
Toni Pergolin. Its another way we fulfill
our mission of creating one world for
everyone.
The March 7 workshop will focus on
how bullying affects many students with
disabilities both as victims and as per-
petrators. The presenter will define bully-
ing and discuss the schools responsibili-
ties to intercede when bullying occurs.
The workshop will provide concrete
advocacy strategies to address bullying
in both a proactive and reactive manner.
The presenter will also discuss ways to
proceed when efforts to address bullying
are not successful.
Geared toward family members, edu-
cators and other professionals in disabili-
ties-related fields, the session will be pre-
sented by attorney Melissa Wheatcroft,
vice president of program operations for
Bancroft.
The March 21 workshop will focus on
developing IEP goals that are individual-
ized, specific, measurable, achievable,
relevant and time-limited. Discussion
and exercises will touch on pre-assess-
ment, data collection and how to develop
objectives and strategies that lead to step-
by-step achievement of created goals.
Geared toward educators and other
professionals in disabilities-related
fields, the session will be presented by
Sharon Jurman, senior director of Ban-
croft Early Childhood and Outreach Serv-
ices.
A final workshop in the series 2011-
2012 season will be held April 18, on
Medical Developments in the Biology of
Autism.

By ROBERT LINNEHAN
The Haddonfield Sun
Could there be a two-pronged
attack for the negotiation of the
Bancroft property? Haddonfield
commissioners rejected the Had-
donfield School Districts request
to be the designated redeveloper
of the Bancroft campus, instead
asking the organization to join to-
gether in a partnership for the
joint public purchase of the 19-
acre property.
In early February, the school
district and borough commission-
ers met jointly to discuss the
issue. Board President Steve We-
instein proposed the commission-
ers pass a redevelopment plan
that would allow the board to take
the lead in purchasing the cam-
pus and negotiate with Bancroft
to purchase the property.
It would be owned by the dis-
trict, he said, but certain parcels
could be deeded to the borough or
used for other aspects, such as
ratables, he said.
Mayor Tish Colombi said the
decision was reached early last
week.
There are just too many legal
restrictions for a school district to
be the lead agency in a redevelop-
ment project, the mayor said.
They cant negotiate many of
the things that the borough or the
township can in regard to this
project. We just felt that we ab-
solutely want to partner with
them for this and I believe noth-
ing they have planned for the area
is off the table at this point, she
said. We would never consider
doing anything there without
consulting with them or working
with them. Its critical that the
land contiguous to the high
school should go to the school dis-
trict thats a non-issue with me.
Based on how the redevelop-
ment plan works and how the
laws control it, it would not
work, she added.
Borough Solicitor Mario Iavi-
coli counseled the commissioners
on their decision, Colombi said.
The school district would also
find it difficult legally to apply for
county open-space funding and
other open-space applications,
she said.
The district would not be able
to legally spend any money on the
process without first having it ap-
proved by borough voters
through a referendum as well.
The board of education dis-
cussed the commissioners deci-
sion and came to the conclusion
there would have to be more de-
tails provided to the district about
what the borough wishes to do
with the property before it can sit
down at a negotiations table.
Board member Cheryl Laney
said it was imperative for the
school district to understand ex-
actly how much of the property it
would receive from the purchase.
The district is currently burst-
ing at its seams, Laney said, and
needs more than just a few acres
for a football field.
The board agreed with Laneys
statement and authorized Wein-
stein to reach out to the borough
to discuss more details before
agreeing to anything on redevel-
opment.
Superintendent of Schools
Rich Perry said it was extremely
important for the district to stay
involved in the process.
We shouldnt limit our op-
tions with this property. We need
to look to the future for the school
district, he said. That piece of
property next to the high school
is extremely important. Were
pretty much landlocked in this
town.
Partnership for Bancroft purchase?
Town commissioners ask school district
to join together for 19-acre property
