We, Community Park School parents, would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who purchased a Princeton Perks discount card over the past months. Back in December 2020, a CP parent had the bright idea to create the Princeton Perks card, which entitles holders to special deals at some 80 local restaurants, shops, and services throughout 2021, to help fill a fundraising gap felt by parent teacher organizations everywhere this year. We hoped to also drum up traffic for many of our favorite establishments. Thanks to you, nearly 1,500 Perks cards are now in circulation around town, and the parent teacher organizations of Princeton’s public and charter schools raised a combined $17,500.

PHS freshman says district has to do better to address Asian hate
The Princeton Public School District has to do better to address Asian hate in the schools.
That’s the message Princeton High School freshman Oliver Huang delivered to the Princeton school board at its March 30 meeting.
“What we see in Atlanta is a reflection of the fact that there has been a lot of Asian hate,” Oliver said. He was referring to the six Asian women who were killed in three spas and massage parlors in Atlanta and Acworth, Georgia, on March 16.

LOOSE ENDS 3/19: Middle school renaming ×
By Pam Hersh
I was supposed to write about COVID’s one-year anniversary, an event that received an overwhelming amount of attention all over the world. The media coverage yielded no wishes for many happy returns, only prayers for never, ever returning.
My brain refused to cooperate. It was numbed by words I never want to use again from the past year – “unprecedented,” “tragic,” “overwhelming,” “new normal,” “out of an abundance of caution,” “traumatized,” by “looking backward” and “anxiety ridden” about going forward. My psyche fought sinking further into the deep hole of depressing COVID-related topics or their very close angst-producing relatives, such as politics and race.
