Tyson's lecture was called “The Cosmic Perspective” There is no view of the world as emotionally potent as the one granted by a cosmic perspective. It’s one that sees Earth as a planet in a vast empty universe. It profoundly influences what we think and feel about science, culture, politics, and life itself.

    The Spirit Club and Mascots from Toms River South went to Childrens' Specialized Hospital on Monday evening where they sang Christmas songs, read "Twas the Night Before Christmas" and distributed gifts to each child at the hospital. The gifts were distributed by Santa and his elves. They then went to the Hampton Ridge Nursing Home and sang Christmas songs with the clientele. After those two activities, they then went back to the school where they enjoyed a holiday party. I think the best heading for this picture would be "SPREADING GOOD CHEER"

    Most Loyal Fan Award
    In the year 2000 Toms River South began a new tradition....and that was selecting a person for the Most Loyal Fan Award. The first person selected was Harry Britton, a person whose heart and soul was with the "Home Of the Indian." This year Our Most Loyal fan was Doug Polhemus, who for 53 years proved he was the right choice for the Most Loyal Fan Award. He played 4 years Varsity Football for the Indians, He bought the Indian trpee which adorns the South end of our football stadium, he supplies the Spirit Committee with football pins at Thanksgiving and supplied hot chocolate and pretzels at the pep rally/ bonfire last Tuesday. This list is just a small list of what this gentleman did for the spirit at the "Home of the Indian." His father brought him to his first game when he was 2 years old and his Dad was selected as a "Most Loyal Fan." We are excited to choose Doug Polhemus as Most Loyal Fan- 2018 Thanksgiving Game Style!

    PRESENTATION OF "MOVE OVER" SIGN TO TOMS RIVER SOUTH BY DONNA SETARO
    The mother of a New Jersey state trooper struck and killed by a car while on duty is educating the public about New Jersey's " Move Over" law. Donna Setaro says she believes that her son, Trooper Marc Castellano, would still be alive if more people were aware of the law." It became a law in January 2009, and yet only 15 percent of the population is aware of it." The law requires drivers to change lanes or slow down when approaching a stopped emergency vehicle. Trooper Castellano was struck and killed by a car while working a case along the side of Interstate 195 in Howell on June 6, 2010. Donna says her mission is to educate New Jersey drivers about the law so that a similar tragedy does not happen again. One method that she uses effectively is to visit schools and educate students about the law. The presentation of the sign to Toms River South was performed on Monday, May 7th.The sign will be installed on the cement wall located in the parking lot of the tennis court and auxiliary field. It will face the street.

    The Indians Kick Off Their Sunday Shoes!
    The Toms River High School South Theatre Guild is proud to present Footloose on March 1, 2, & 3, 2018. One of the most explosive movie musicals in recent memory bursts onto the live stage with exhilarating results. When Ren and his mother move from Chicago to a small farming town, Ren isn't prepared for the rigorous local laws, which include a ban on dancing by the town preacher. When the reverend's rebellious daughter sets her sights on Ren and her roughneck boyfriend tries to sabotage Ren’s reputation, it is up to Ren to show the town the value of a fresh point of view. Set to the rockin’ rhythm of its Oscar and Tony-nominated top 40 score, with dynamic new songs for the stage, Footloose is a celebration of youth and life through dance and upbeat music. All performances begin at 7:00 pm. Tickets are $7.00 and are available at the door of the High School South cafetorium on Hooper Avenue, Toms River.

Students faced off against each other, choosing an egg to smash on their head from a sample that included both raw and hard-boiled eggs. Some of the questions posed were whether there was an advantage to picking first, and what the probability of being eliminated was at any given point. Winners advanced through a bracket system, where the ultimate victor competed head-to-head against Mr. Sager in final showdown. Congratulations to Evan Raichle and Jacky Pan, the Egg Roulette champions!
