(North Bergen,
NJ—December 19, 2014) The High Tech National Honor Society (NHS), moderated by veteran
Language Arts teacher and Department Liaison Joan Marie Bellotti, recently
sponsored a drive to support the York Street Project, announced Dr. Joseph
Giammarella, Principal of High Tech High School.
Students in all of the
homerooms at High Tech donated items such as toiletries, bathroom and facial
tissues, paper towels, adhesive bandages, stationery items, batteries, and
garbage bags, which NHS members boxed.
NHS president Tyler Law, a resident of Bayonne, and his mother, Lori Ann
Law, delivered the boxed goods to Kenmare High School in Jersey City for
distribution to all of the York Street Project facilities.
In addition to the NHS
president, the following NHS students helped and boxed items: Alexandra
Altamura and Koby Garcia of West New York; Bayonne residents Ida Behreini and
Taylor Turzycki; and Nisarg Shah of North Bergen.
Weaving innovative
programs that shelter, feed, educate, and promote the healing and independence
of people in need, especially women and their children, the York Street Project
works in four interrelated, coordinated, yet separate, programs at the
Nurturing Place, St. Joseph’s Home, St. Mary’s Residence, and the
aforementioned Kenmare High School.
