Lauren Bowersock with Wyatt Lauren Bowersock with Wyatt.

By Lauren Bowersock

The surrounding air has no particular aroma as I breathe it in, but it’s fresh and it clears my mind. With a deep exhale I feel the stress of the week disappear. Here I am, out on the open streets with Wyatt, just how I like it.

To the editor:

After dedicating my life to public service and running my own business, I retired to Upper Township to be near my children and to enjoy this lovely community. I assumed I was finished with the political scene, but recent developments in the township I adopted as home over 20 years ago have stirred up my ire.

To the editor:

I would like to thank the Upper Township community for supporting our efforts to save the school librarian positions in the Upper Township school district. It was inspiring to see so many parents and concerned citizens so willing to sign our petition and join us at the Board of Education meeting on April 23.

To the editor:

I was shocked to hear last week that Upper Township schools are eliminating the position of school librarian in the primary and elementary schools. As an educator, I recognize the importance of reading to advance literacy skills. These skills are necessary for our students to compete in a global economy.
