NORTH BRUNSWICK – The township cheered for a young woman who received accolades for her background in academics and cheerleading.

“Anybody who knows anything about this family knows they’re a wonderful, wonderful North Brunswick family. Very active and involved,” Councilwoman Cathy Nicola said prior to reading the proclamation.
Erin is a junior at North Brunswick Township High School. She is on the high honor roll with a 3.9 GPA.
She is a member of the National Honor Society, PUSH (Prevention Using Student Help) and the DECA marketing club. She recently attended the state competition for DECA.
