Generous Cross Country Donation!!!
On August 12th, four members of the cross country team and Coach Kopec were at a local eating establishment talking about the 2010 season. Practices, sheduling meets, uniforms, and team unity were discussed. A fellow restaurant patron overheard the conversation and concerns and gave a GENEROUS donation to the team.
We'd like to thank her kindness; and remind people it is okay to "panic" - you never know who is listening! Thanks again!

Rickover's Summer Reading Program
Once again, Rickover cadets will have the opportunity to develop independence in reading and study skills while improving their vocabulary by participating in the Rickover Summer Reading Program. Rickover cadets can choose from a list of books selected by the Social Science teachers & NJROTC instructors. The books should be read during the summer and in September, can earn credit for the first assignments of these courses if they successfully complete a simple quiz to show proof of reading.
Please click on this article to view the Summer Program Parent letter and the list of books offered for this program. If you have any questions, please contact Ms. Cleary at mcleary@cps.edu.
We at Rickover wish you all a safe and learning summer!
