But yet no one here blames the students? I am a student at LBHS who has pushed myself to my limit, and achieved success. I consistently get Advanced Proficient or even perfect scores on the NJ PASS, and this year the HSPA, and am in the top 4% of my class. Now, I sorta kinda crumble under pressure, so I didn't do too well on my SAT's the first time (1710). However, it is in my humble opinion that… more ›

Long Branch Athlete of the Week: Jake George
George headed to Cornell for wrestling this fall
In the first installment of Patch's new Athlete of the Week feature, Long Branch High School's Jake George is featured. George is headed to Cornell to wrestle this fall and signed his national letter of intent earlier this month. Each week we will ask our athlete of the week three questions and print their answers verbatim. Why did you choose the college you did? I think Cornell has a great balance, both academically and athletically. Also, my brother going there also altered my decision, somewhat, but I just think it's a great place. What has been your best sports experience at Long Branch High School so far? I've had a lot of great experiences playing sports, but I think my most memorable was my freshman year when we won the group title …

It's so uplifting to see children getting involved in the Performing Arts. There recently was something on PBS on NOVA (I think) about the brain and how music is quite helpful in developing the brain. Congratulations to all the children for their participation. more ›

PHOTOS: Columbus Day Parade Shines Through
The annual parade down Broadway saw wet weather.
If you missed the annual Columbus Day parade in Long Branch yesterday, you may have avoided getting your feet wet, but you missed out on smiling faces and about two pounds of candy per parade goer. Cold temps and rainy skies kept away the crowds along Broadway, but those who toughed it out were treated to bag pipers, fire engines, floats, twirlers and high school bands, all with a spirit that couldn't be dampened by the weather. Patch was there and we now have 158 Tootsie Rolls and 30 Blow Pops to prove it. Next year we'll be more like the little girl in front of Dunkin' Donuts, who brought along her fishing net to catch her loot.
