(EAST ORANGE/ORANGE, NJ) - On this last day of Women’s History Month, before the clock strikes 12 midnight, TAPinto wanted to pause from all the Coronavirus news and take the time to highlight women in our communities making a difference.
In honor of the many s-heroes, we have created our second annual “East Orange and Orange 100 Women of Power and Progress” list.
The criteria used to select each woman was as follows: 1. The woman must be a resident of or work in East Orange or Orange. 2. She must use her life and platforms by way of career, volunteerism, social media, etc. to promote positivity, unity, and the uplifting of other women within one of the two municipalities and beyond.

Citing the dismal performance of Filipino students in global reading, math and science assessment, Cebu Rep. Eduardo Gullas called on DepEd to map out plans to boost the teaching of English in schools.
“DepEd should devote more funds to improve the English language skills of all classroom teachers,” Gullas said, adding that poor English reading and comprehension skills have “handicapped the Filipino students in math and science.”
In a statement, Tanggol Wika deplored Gullas’ suggestion for DepEd to reinforce English as the sole medium of instruction at all levels of education.
It instead urged DepEd to strengthen Filipino as the primary medium of instruction.
MCC hosts drive-through graduation celebration
December 27, 2020|
Mesa Community College hosts a drive-through graduation celebration to honor its 2,645 2019-2020 graduates. The celebration, postponed from May 2020 due to pandemic restrictions, will honor more than 100 recent alumni as they pass through a reception line at the college’s Southern and Dobson Campus (1833 W. Southern Ave., Mesa).
“We are saddened that we were not able to give all our May 2020 graduates the in-person ceremony they deserve,” MCC Interim President Dr. Lori Berquam said. “We are glad, however, that we were able to honor their hard work in a safe format today in this very joyful drive-through celebration.”
