The James Caldwell High School Center for Performing arts just got a needed lift. Fundraising efforts by the Caldwell-West Caldwell high school’s Music & More Booster Club resulted in the purchase of a scissor lift to be used primarily for setting up and breaking down sets during drama and musical productions. The non-profit booster club comprised of parent volunteers traditionally raises money for scholarships and the school’s annual music tour. But for the past two years, the group focused on the need for a lift. “Over the past one to two years, we put money aside to purchase something special for the school,” parent and Music & More co-president Ron Goltsch said in a release. “Some of the teachers suggested the idea of the lift, and we …

For James Caldwell High School students Emily Fiore and Morgan Vitiello, spring means planning their annual egg hunt to help someone less fortunate than themselves.

James Caldwell High School's Environmental Protection Club holds second swap event.
It's kind of like a yard sale, but everything is free. It's sort of a swap, however you don't have to give something to take something. The James Caldwell High School Environmental Protection Club held its second "Swaptacular" of the school year Tuesday afternoon, where students brought an assortment of items they no longer needed or wanted — including books, CDs, games and jewelry — and laid them out on the cafeteria tables after school. The high school library also provided a cart-full of free books. The teens were welcome to browse and take whatever they wanted from about 2:45 to 3:30 p.m. The first "Swaptacular" was held in December, according to club president Malek Ismail. "It's just a way to keep things out of landfills," Ismail …
