raise monies to purchase necessities. A
challenge was issued by Principal
Michael Loughren. If students collected
$500 or more, he would allow members of

students gathered in the cafeteria to
watch as the principal was taped to the
wall. NJHS sponsor and teacher Marisa
Rusinko was delighted by the success of
the campaign and readily assisted in the
effort by cutting long pieces of duct tape
