EHS Senior Oscar Benning Goes Above Expectations in Ceramics 1

Students in Ms. Weber's Ewing High School’s Ceramics 1 course are finishing up creating African-inspired Coil Built Vessels. Oscar Benning, a senior, is featured here in this image, creating the tallest form in the class. Oscar wanted to go above the project requirements of a seven-inch height and his project will become about 4 feet tall once completed and assembled. Oscar's project will need to be fired separately to be attached after firing as it will be too tall to fit into the kiln as one piece. Oscar used a few different techniques to create his piece, in addition to coil building, such as: soft slab wrapped onto a cylinder mold and a drape mold process. Oscar plans on using his giant vessel for a new cereal bowl, no table needed.

EHS Senior Spotlight June 2022: Meet Sy'Maya Summiel

What accomplishments are you most proud of?   I am grateful for all of the opportunities I have received in order to achieve these accomplishments. I have had the opportunity to participate in the 2021 MLK Commemorative Commission Youth Summit where I, alongside a college student, interviewed the Basketball Wives TV Personality, Jennifer Williams, and youth leader, Michael Spence. I was recently selected to be a member in the National Honor Society. During an MCCC Audio Production project, I interviewed my father, who’s President of the Trenton Chapter NAACP organization, and our interview was aired on 89.1 WWFM Jazz On 2 radio station. I recently received a gold medal in the NAACP NJ ACT-SO State Competition, so I will be competing at nationals in Atlantic City, NJ. I am very proud of myself and how far I have come.

EHS Girls Bowling Wins State Championship!

The Girls Bowling title run was a particularly thrilling event, with Ewing and Barnegat engaged in a Valentine’s Day classic. In the end, it took a strong team effort by all the EHS Bowlers; Sierra Reid, Mia Siminitus, Amandalynn Curtiss, Eliana Otto, and Megan Rosiejka, to hold off the Bengals and claim the state title for the Blue Devils. The lady bowlers were guided by the sage and stable hands of EHS alum Coach David Angebranndt, who interestingly enough, won a state championship in bowling as a student-athlete when he walked the hallways of EHS. “GoodNews” staff recently caught up with two of the newly crowned state champions, senior Sierra Reid and junior Mia Siminitus, to get their perspective on the team’s impressive achievement.
