Belmar Open Again; First Private School in PA for Gifted; Mural for Asian Gamblers

Belmar has re-opened after too many people overcrowded the shore town prompting the mayor to close access roads to outsiders. Mayor Matt Doherty ordered closing access from Route 35 for safety reasons as beachgoers and visitors to a seafood festival created the over-crowding. Belmar was officially closed to outsiders for about four hours and re-opened at about 7 pm yesterday.

Pennsylvania is about to get its first private school for gifted students. The state Department of Education on Friday awarded a license to the Grayson School, which plans to open in the fall at a Greek Orthodox school in Broomall and begin by serving students from kindergarten through sixth grade. Grayson's founders say that as a result of the current emphasis on making sure all students in public schools meet state academic standards, many gifted students are being shortchanged.

A mural depicting the path to recovery for Asian-American gambling addicts called "Fables of Fortune" will be unveiled tomorrow on Wolf Street near 7th, a few blocks from a trolleybus route to the SugarHouse Casino. Some research shows that casinos target Asian-Americans. The mural project, located in the heart of Philadelphia's Asian-American community, began four years ago.
