Board of Education Thanks Donors to the School District

The East Windsor Board of Education recognized individuals and businesses who donated to the East Windsor Regional School District at their Feb. 11 meeting. These donations have helped to support school events and awards at Hightstown High School.

The FIRST Robotics Team received substantial financial support in monetary donations from two donors.  Frederick Egenolf, Director of Community Affairs for Bristol-Myers Squibb, arranged a donation of $6,000.00. Gregory Charache of TRUMPF Photonics, Inc. arranged a donation of $1,500.00. Both these contributions had a significant impact on the competition entry fees and project development costs.
 
Brian Neer made a $400.00 donation to the Life Skills Scholarship of the high school. The scholarship is awarded to a graduating senior from the Life Skills Program who is planning on continuing his/her education.
