Sunday vigil planned for Sayreville hazing victims
Residents of Sayreville and neighboring communities plan to gather at a local park Sunday to hold a vigil for the students who were victims of alleged hazing at Sayreville War Memorial High School.
Maureen Jenkins of the Parlin told MyCentralJersey.com that she believes the community has been "divided and broken" by the scandal, section of the borough. "We need to come together."
According to MyCentralJersey.com, Jenkins is organizing a vigil that is scheduled for 6 p.m. Sunday at Kennedy Park on Washington Road, across the street from the high school.
Jenkins told the website that the vigil was also meant to bring awareness to anti-bullying measures as well as to show support for the hazing victims and their families as well as some district officials. "It is also being held in support of the superintendent and the board of ed for the decisions they made for the safety of our children," she said in the article.
