N.J. high school cancels ‘South Pacific’ after students raise bias concerns, plans concert instead
Updated Mar 16, 2021;
The largest high school district in Hunterdon County recently decided to abandon plans to present “South Pacific” as its spring musical after students and staff raised concerns about potentially insensitive characters and dialogue within the production.
Instead, Hunterdon Central Regional High School will present a full-fledged concert titled “Some Enchanted Evening: A Celebration of the Music of Rodgers and Hammerstein.”
Fabianna Rincon and Anjali Vijan, two seniors at the Raritan Township-based school, said they met with school administrators, teachers and union members in late February to express concerns over “South Pacific,” a Rodgers & Hammerstein musical that premiered in 1949 and was revived on Broadway in 2008.

JEFFERSON COUNTY – The Jefferson County School District is taking an aggressive approach to helping students deal with mental health issues.
“Making sure our students have access to adequate mental health services is something that is a priority for our district,” said Scott Mohon, Director of Assessment, Accountability, and Student Support. “In order for our students to be successful in the classroom, we have to make sure their social and emotional needs are being met. There is no way around this issue other than to address it head-on.”
Within the last year, the district has hired mental health director Dr. Jeffrey Moore to coordinate and expand mental health services. This position was created to ensure that all students in the Jefferson County School System are provided with the social and emotional support necessary for them to be academically successful.

Fast forward a decade and a lot happened in the 2010’s to deliver sight and sound. The storage industry brought innovation to solve the petabyte+ data challenge, the analytics software/toolkits ecosystem rapidly matured, and chip manufacturers delivered accelerated compute to glean insights from the ever-growing troves of data.
But the quest for better insights is never over. In fact, the constantly increasing volume of data is forcing us to take analytics into hyperdrive. For the enterprise to stay competitive in 2021, they must continue to innovate. Below I describe four big data analytics trends I’m seeing, along with some suggested solution features to look for.
