South Jersey Spelling Bee
On Saturday, our Alder Spelling Bee champion, Nekita Thaker, competed against other school champions from five counties of southern NJ at the South Jersey Spelling Bee. Eighth grader, Nekita, lasted through 26 rounds and ultimately placed 2nd, just one place away from going to Washington DC to compete in the Scripps National Spelling Bee.
Meet our NEW Staff!!
Ms. Cathy Buzby
I grew up in Altoona, PA where I attended Penn State earning a Bachelor's Degree in Health Policy Administration. I also lived in Ft. Lauderdale obtaining an Associates Degree in Culinary Arts at the Art Institute. My husband and I have lived in EHT for sixteen years. Before becoming a paraprofessional at Alder, I was a substitute teacher in the EHTSD. I have two sons. Gus is a former Alder student and currently a sophomore at the high school. Max is a fourth grader at Miller School. We spend our time going to our boys many baseball, street hockey, and lacrosse games. During the summer, we enjoy going to the beach and lots more baseball. It's been a great first year at Alder, thank you!
