Jun 11, 2008 -- 鶹ýӳ High Schools (鶹ýӳHS), comprised of The Marsha Stern Talmudical Academy / 鶹ýӳ High School for Boys (鶹ýӳHSB) and the Samuel H. Wang 鶹ýӳ High School for Girls (鶹ýӳHSG), will bestow Dr. Edward Berliner with the Faculty Member of the Year award. Dr. Berliner will be honored at the 鶹ýӳHS Annual Dinner of Tribute on Monday, June 23 at 6 pm at The New York Marriott Marquis in Times Square. Prominent members of the West Orange, NJ community, Dr. Berliner and his wife, Debbie, are proud parents of three 鶹ýӳHSB alumni: Avi ’99, Josh ’01, and Jon ’04.
Since joining the 鶹ýӳHS faculty in 2002, Dr. Berliner has enriched the lives of his students and colleagues, both academically and personally. In addition to teaching AP calculus and AP physics at 鶹ýӳHSB, Dr. Berliner serves as the Executive Director of Science Management and Clinical Professor of Physics at 鶹ýӳ and played an integral role in the construction of 鶹ýӳHSG’s science lab. Dr. Berliner is also director of the newly formed 鶹ýӳHSB Honors College -- a program that offers select students an enriching cultural, educational, and religious experience.
“It is a privilege to be honoring Dr. Edward Berliner,” said Miriam Goldberg, chairman of the 鶹ýӳHS Board of Trustees. “He is a wonderful example of a committed faculty member who perpetuates our high standards and encourages our students to reach their greatest potential.”
Both students and Dr. Berliner are appreciative of their time in the classroom together. “I learn so much from all of the students and am constantly amazed at their insights and ingenuity,” says Dr. Berliner. “Because of them, I come into school each day looking forward to learning something new.”
