    Medford residents who are lis-teners to Philadelphia's Alterna-tive Radio 104.5's “New MusicShow” the past few months mayhave heard a song called “How isYour Girlfriend,” a rhythmic tunediving into the reflections of ateenage girl.

    What listeners may not know isthe song was written and per-formed by someone from theirown backyard.

    Melissa Weinstein, a junior atShawnee High School, has had

    her single played multiple timeson the 104.5 New Music Show. OnFeb. 27, she was scheduled to per-form live on the radio station forthe first time. Weinstein wastabbed to appear on Radio 104.5's“Live at 5” program to perform“How is Your Girlfriend” as wellas a cover of “Cough Syrup “ byYoung the Giant.

    “It's so surreal,” Weinsteinsaid. “It's really exciting.”

    Weinstein’s music began play-ing on 104.5 after her dad Bob sentthe station “How is Your Girl-friend.” The song got good re-views and has been played on theNew Music Show.

    About a month ago, Wein-stein’s single caught the ears of Wendy Rollins, the host of “Liveat 5.” She invited Weinstein toperform on the air a few weeksago after hearing “How is YourGirlfriend” on the station's air-waves.

    Weinstein began writing songsas a way to express herself. Shefeels many teens her age can re-

    late to her songs because they de-scribe experiences many peoplehave during their high schoolyears. So far, Weinstein estimatesshe has written about 15 songs.

    “I kind of write as my owndiary, kind of a public diary,” shesaid.

    Weinstein feels her music fallsinto the alternative genre, but

    2 THE MEDFORD SUN — MARCH 4–10, 2015

    By MIKE MONOSTRAThe Sun

    In September, students in An-drew Reuter’s fifth-grade class atKirby’s Mill Elementary Schoolwere introduced to a classroom

    unlike any other.Reuter’s class became the first

    in the Medford Township SchoolDistrict to use a computer, specifi-cally Google Chromebooks, as theprimary tool for classwork. TheChromebooks are used for allsorts of subjects, from math tolanguage arts to social studies.

    Nearly six months into the pro-

    gram, Kirby’s Mill PrincipalMark Damon informed the boardof education the pilot programhas been a resounding success.

    Damon and Reuter gave a pres-entation to the board of educa-tion at last week’s meeting dis-playing the benefits the school’sChromebook pilot program hashad on Reuter’s students thisyear.

    Last spring, Damon and Reuterproposed the pilot program to theboard. Every student in Reuter’sclass received a Chromebook touse throughout the school year.The cost for the program is beingpaid entirely through Kirby’s

    Mill building funds.Damon felt it was important

    for the school to take a step for-ward into the future.

    “We’re looking for ways to pre-pare learners who are going to bepart of the 21st century work-force,” he said. “Going to the techlab one hour per week is notenough.”

    Any concerns members of theboard expressed last year aboutthe program have not been real-ized so far. Some board memberswere originally concerned aboutcyber security and whether thedistrict could handle mainte-nance on the computers.

    To help keep the Chromebooksin working order, the district’s ITDepartment is using Google Man-agement, a program giving it di-rect access to any computer theymay need to fix.

    “It allows the IT Department tomanage the Chromebooks overthe Internet,” Damon said.

    Upkeep of the Chromebookswas another concern. Damonsaid other schools in North Jer-sey who used Chromebooks in asimilar program had problemswith screens cracking. The schoolpurchased spare screens in antic-

    Chromebook program a successin Kirby’s Mill fifth-grade classDistrict may expand pilot program to additional classrooms

    MARCH 4–10, 2015 –THE MEDFORD SUN 3

    The public is invited to theMedford Friends Meeting to heara special guest speaker, Quakerscholar Jeffrey Dudiak, whosetopic “Radicalizing Spirit: Chris-tianity and the Contemporary So-ciety of Friends” will offer an-swers to many questions aboutthe faith community.

    Dudiak, a Canadian native life-long Friend, was raised in theevangelical Friends tradition. Heis a 2014-15 Cadbury Scholar atPendle Hill, the Quaker educationcenter in Pennsylvania, where he

    is working on understanding thediversity of Quaker understand-ings of God. He is an associate pro-fessor of philosophy at The King’sUniversity in Edmonton, Alberta,Canada, and is a member of Ed-monton Monthly Meeting.

    Dudiak is interested in “facili-tating meaningful interactionsamong Quakers of all branches.”In his lectures, he addresses theoften-perplexing relationship be-

    tween Quakerism and Christiani-ty in the contemporary Society of Friends.

    “Especially as that relationshipis variously understood byFriends of highly diverse theolog-ical, sociological and politicalsensibilities, often to the point of mutual alienation,” Dudiak said.

    His talk will also help non-Quakers to understand the reli-gious aspects of the group thatsettled all of West Jersey (presentday South Jersey) in the late1600s.

    Members of the public are wel-come to attend 10 a.m. Quakerworship in the “unprogrammed”tradition, as well as Dudiak’s in-teractive talk and a simple lunch-eon on March 8. Worship is at 10a.m., Dudiak’s talk and discus-sion are at 11:30 a.m. and a lunch-eon follows at 1 p.m.

    School administrators through-

    out the state were holding their

    collective breath leading up to

    Gov. Christie’s 2015 budget address last

    week.

    “Where would state aid stand?” was

    the question on everyone’s mind. If 

    state aid went down considerably, how

    hard would it hit the school district’s

    bottom line?

    Come last week, though, these same

    administrators were able to breathe a

    sigh of relief when Christie an-

    nounced that his budget proposal

    would actually increase state aid to

    schools and, more importantly, would-

    n’t reduce aid to any school district.

    Overall, Christie’s budget provides

    for an $811 million increase in educa-

    tional funding, although only $4.6 mil-

    lion of that will go to school aid. The

    rest is earmarked for debt, pension and

    health care.

    The good news for school districts

    like ours, which doesn’t receive the

    bulk of state aid to public schools any-

    way, is that we will not lose any state

    aid from last year. True, we won’t be

    seeing an increase, but at least we

    won’t lose money.

    While we certainly could have used

    more help from the Garden State, it’s

    comforting to know we won’t have to

    kick in more money out of our already

    thin pockets.

    So two thumbs up to Christie for

    paying attention to one of the most im-

    portant aspects of life here in New Jer-

    sey – our public schools.

    in our opinion

    Phew!No school district will see a decrease in state aid

    It’s budget time

    The school district will be releasing its2015-2016 budget numbers, and theimpact on your tax bills, shortly. The Sunwill have all the details on the budgetwhen they are released. If you want toshare your thoughts on the topic, sendus a letter to the editor. We’d love tohear from you.

    said each song has a unique iden-tity. In addition to “How is YourGirlfriend,” Weinstein has re-leased two other singles named“Get Over Yourself and “Can YouTake Me.” In addition, Weinsteinhas recorded two other singlesshe plans to release in the near fu-ture.

    “They each have their own dif-ferent kind of feel to them,” shesaid. “One could be consideredpop, one could be considered folk,

    'How is Your Girlfriend' is a little jazzy.”Weinstein doesn't just write

    and sing her songs. She also playsguitar, a talent her dad helped herpick up.

    “My dad kind of taught mehow to play guitar,” she said. “Hegave me his old guitar and taughtme a few chords. He inspired meto start playing.”

    Since “How is Your Girlfriend”first debuted on 104.5 a couplemonths ago, listeners have taken

    to Twitter to rave about the song.Weinstein said it was incredibleseeing how listeners actually en-

     joyed her music.“I was reading a conversation

    between the host (Jessie Sabella)of the New Music Show, because

    my song was on yesterday,” Wein-stein said. “This girl said 'Jessie, Iheard this song on the radio and Ilove it so much but I don't knowthe name of it.' I just read thiswhole conversation they had andshe was so excited when shefound out it was me. That's actual-ly happened a lot. It's cool seeingpeople talk about my songs.”

    In addition to her own music,Weinstein is also a member of acover band at the New JerseySchool of Music. She enjoys per-

    forming covers on top of her ownoriginal music.

    “Sometimes, there's songs I canreally relate to,” she said. “But if I can't find the right words, I just

    write my own.”Weinstein is hoping to turn

    music into a career someday. Shebelieves her live performance onthe radio is a step in that direc-tion.

    “I'm always hoping my musicwill take me somewhere,” shesaid.

    All three of Weinstein’s singlesare available to purchase oniTunes and Amazon. Listenerscan also view a music video of “How is Your Girlfriend” on herYouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIRZx

    “We’ve not had one issue witha single Chromebook all year,”Damon said. “The kids have donea fantastic job at taking good careof their Chromebooks.”

    The educational aspects of theprogram have also been positive.

    Reuter described this school yearas the most rewarding he’s everexperienced. He said the programhas allowed him to work with thestudents more closely than everbefore and has opened a wholenew avenue of interactive in-struction.

    Reuter said his students also

    love the program. After doing an

    informal survey of his class,Reuter got all sorts of positivefeedback. He said his students aremore engaged in what they arelearning than ever before.

    “The response I have gottenfrom the kids is fantastic,” Reutersaid.

    The positive feedback has got-ten other teachers in the schooldistrict interested in implement-ing their own Chromebook class-room. Damon said he’s received
