>Ridgewood Woman’s Club :Annual House Tour

The Junior Woman’s Club of Ridgewood will hold its Fourteenth Annual Spring House Tour on Thursday, May 12, 2011 from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. The tour, which is a charity event, will feature five unique homes located in Ridgewood and Ho-Ho-Kus. Tour goers will be able to enjoy lunch in downtown Ridgewood and Ho-Ho-Kus and take advantage of House Tour Specials offered by participating restaurant partners Natalie’s, Daily Treat, Village Green, It’s Greek to Me and Café Amici.

The annual Spring House Tour is the largest fundraiser hosted by the Junior Woman’s Club of Ridgewood, a non-profit organization dedicated to serving the community. The 2010 House Tour, which had over 1,000 attendees, raised $40,000 for charities serving women and children. Last year the JWC awarded grants to 26 local charities including Children’s Aid and Family Services, Baby Basics, Camp Sunshine, Sharing the Arts, the Daniel Jordan Fiddle Foundation and the Social Services Association of Ridgewood. The Spring House Tour tickets are $40 per person and tax-deductible. For further information please visit the web-site www.jwcridgewood.com

>RIDGEWOOD PUBLIC SCHOOLS :ANNUAL PARENT SURVEY TARGETED FOR NEXT WEEK

Once again, the Ridgewood Public Schools will be conducting a survey to determine parent/guardian opinions on a variety of topics related to the district. A similar survey was last conducted last June, at the end of the 2009-2010 school year.

The purpose of the brief survey is to gather parent and guardian’s opinions on district schools and the education Ridgewood students receive. The survey is divided into five sections: school climate, academics, extracurricular activities, facilities and communications. Also included is a section covering the Skyward student information system, newly implemented this school year. The data collected will be shared with the community and will be used by the Board of Education as part of its evaluation of district policies and practices.

Parents will be receiving the surveys next week via e-mail. They will receive one e-mail for each school their children attend, which will include a link to access the survey. Parents will be instructed to complete only one survey for each school that their children are enrolled, regardless of the number of children attending a particular school. For example, if a household has two children enrolled at a district elementary school and one child at the high school, links to two surveys will be send to each parent.

Responses to survey questions will remain completely confidential.

A dedicated e-mail address has been set up to take questions or concerns at [email protected].

>Jobless claims jump points to slowing recovery

On Thursday May 5, 2011, 5:00 pm EDT
By Lucia Mutikani

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The number of Americans filing for jobless aid rose to an eight-month high last week and productivity growth slowed in the first quarter, clouding the outlook for an economy that is struggling to gain speed.

While the surprise jump in initial claims for unemployment benefits was blamed on factors ranging from spring break layoffs to the introduction of an emergency benefits program, economists said it corroborated reports this week indicating a loss of momentum in job creation.

New claims for state jobless benefits rose 43,000 to 474,000, the highest since mid-August, the Labor Department said on Thursday. Economists had expected claims to fall.
