WIND TURBINE 101
Ms. Nora Kasper and 20 of her science students have been working with a grass roots organization to construct a Wind Turbine. Judge is the first school to embark on this Green Adventure. We had the honor of naming the pilot program. We have chosen (WATTAGE) Wind Activiated Turbine TO Achieve Green Energy. The hope is that the turbine will power something on the Father Judge campus.

Bring in your old newspaper, magazines, notebooks and paper as Father Judge now has a PAPER RECYCLING BIN next to the track in the school parking lot. The more paper we get the more our Campus Ministry and CSC programs benefit as all proceeds benefit both programs.

SEPTA TRANSPASS UPDATE
Last year Gov. Ed Rendell and Senator Vince Fumo announced a program that allowed all Philadelphia students to receive free transportation to and from school. Since the announcement, the Archdiocese of Philadelphia has worked with the school district of Philadelphia to ensure that our students recieve the full benefit of this program.
I ask that anyone who feels her son is eligible for free transportation but who was told he is not on the list, please send in a note or index card with your son's name, ID number and the address where he lives. We will contact SEPTA and the State and do our best to see if we can straighten out the situation.
REQUIREMENTS FROM THE STATE FOR FREE TRANSPORTATION
-
Eligibility: Students who reside in the city of Philadelphia and live 1.5 miles from the school are eligible for free student passes. A list of students who attend Judge has been submitted to the school district to ascertain those who are eligible. Father Judge will be notified the first week of school of who is eligible.
-
SEPTA will no longer be selling tokens. The new STUDENT TRANSPASSES will take the place of tokens and be available on a weekly basis. Transpasses will be color coded for each week (Mon-Fri). Student transpasses will be honored between 6:00 AM - 7:00 PM during the week when school is in session. Students eligible must sign their transpass - they cannot be shared with someone else.
