The Waynesboro Area School District has implemented internet access points known as hotspots to ensure all its students have internet access while not at school and during remote learning days.
According to WASD Director of Technology Nic Erickson, a handful of WiFi hotspot locations are already in place with additional access points to be available in the near future. The hotspots have a wide reach around their location and they are equipped with an internal GPS for security purposes, Erickson said. They can handle multiple logins at once so more than one student can login though each location.

Hammonton native authors ‘A Taste for All Seasons’
Eleanor Rodio Furlong of Naples, Fla., formerly of Hammonton and Vineland, presents a legacy of hand-me-down recipes that were perfected over a century or more plus a memoir about a lost era in Americana culinary history, in her new book, “A Taste for all Seasons: A Healthy Blend of Italian and American Cuisines.”
The book features authentic recipes with origins in the Neapolitan and Abruzzi regions of Italy, which found their way to southern New Jersey with Italian immigrants settling there around the turn of the 20th century. The Rodios were among those who established farms, planted their roots in the Jersey soil, and nurtured their families in the New World.

The DOT on March 25 closed the right lane of northbound 295 between Essex Avenue and an area near Browning Road in Bellmawr after a retaining wall shifted and partially collapsed.
The lane was closed until further notice as a safety precaution and to provide access for construction equipment, said DOT spokesman Steve Schapiro.
The shutdown is likely to cause congestion for northbound motorists on 295 and Route 42, according to the DOT.
The wall shifted in an area where workers are building a new portion of I-295 north of Browning Road, he said.
