A celebration this June marks the 100^th four- year graduation of Gloucester City High School.

It will be marked with events and the sharing of unbelievable memorabilia from the past 100 years.

Anyone who has been part of that history, or who has family or friends who have been part of that history, will not want to miss out on the celebration.

Formal education began in Gloucester City the late 1700s, with the opening of a one-room log school on the edge of town.

\”Is there any way to accelerate the stream bank project,\” Brooklawn Councilman Gerald Granstrom asked during the May meeting.

Borough Engineer Chuck Riebel Jr. said the state Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) expected everything to be in order and to start the improvements within three months.

\”After all is in order then the project would have to go out to bid for three months, taking the project up to winter time,\” he said.

Commencement exercises for the Alice Costello School Class of 2008 were held on Monday evening, June 9, 2008 at the Alice Costello School. Graduation diplomas were presented to 34 students. This year the students chose the theme \”Don\’t Stop Believing\” for the commencement exercises.

Highlighting the evening was the presentation of awards to outstanding graduates.
