Alder Weekly Update
May 8, 2022
Message from the Principal
Hello Parents, Staff, and Students,
Another busy week comes to a close at Alder, but we are looking forward to more fun and exciting happenings in the next few weeks!
Dance ticket sales are closing soon for the Spring Back the Fun Dance being held this Friday, May 20th at Alder. You must have a ticket to attend the dance. No students will be permitted to attend the dance without buying an advance ticket. The dance is open to all Alder Middle School students.
Our 6th grade students had an opportunity to perform at Absegami High School with the All South Jersey Elementary Honors Band. Students were nominated by their band teacher, Mrs. Donchey, and selected by auditioning. They attend several rehearsals before their performance.
We celebrated our top three 8th grade students who will attend the Academic Excellence Recognition Luncheon on June 1st. They are pictured below. Their hard work and dedication to their academics has earned them this coveted spot! We are proud to have them representing Alder!
We also celebrated our wonderful nurses, Mrs. Charlton and Mrs. Sommers on National School Nurses Day. They have worked tirelessly, especially through the pandemic to keep us well cared for and safe.
This coming week, we will showcase our band in concert on Wednesday, and our Strings on Thursday evening. Both events begin at 7:00 pm. Please consider joining us for a relaxing night of beautiful music!
Take a look below for some great pictures of our students and also some fun activities to enjoy!
Enjoy the weekend!

Dice and Dine!
Now in its 12th year, the Dice & Dine will be held from 6:30 – 9:30 pm, Thursday, May 19, at Linwood Country Club, and will feature live casino games provided by Full House Casino Entertainment, food stations, and an auction.
The open-to-the-public, indoor/outdoor event promises a fun evening from start to finish by providing attendees with $50 in casino chips when they arrive. Guests have the opportunity to test their luck at eight Blackjack tables, two Craps tables, two Roulette Wheels, and a Big 6 Money Wheel. Additional chips are available for purchase throughout the night. At the end of the evening, ‘gamblers’ can exchange their chips for auction tickets and the chance to win exciting prizes donated by generous local businesses.
The fundraiser will also honor this year’s local Aces and Lou DeScioli Community Spirit Award recipients Ed Bertino, Ron Koons, Tommy Rizzotte, Jeremiah Simmons, and Heidi Vazquez – all Egg Harbor Township Police Officers and EHTHS Alumni who go above and beyond the call of duty to provide “Not Even Once” (NEO) instructional programming for Egg Harbor Township 12-grade students as part of their Health and Physical Education curriculum.
Tickets are $100 each. Seven sponsorship packages ranging from a $250 Friend of the Foundation Sponsorship to the $10,000 'naming rights' Jackpot Presenting Sponsorship are also available. Questions? Please call (609) 646-8441 ext. 1017, or via email to gregorye@eht.k12.nj.us.
