North Brunswick Township High School recently held a Jean Day to raise more than $500 to help a police officer and his family.
The younger brother of health and physical education teacher Christopher Waddell is a sergeant with the Atlantic City Police Department.
On Sept. 3, while investigating a group of suspicious people, fellow officer Joshlee Vadell was shot in the head.
Vadell, 29, was rushed to the hospital and eventually released, but his family is facing a long road as his wife just gave birth to their third child. Waddell asked the school to provide assistance since his brother is good friends with Vadell.
