Great schools or great parents--the Bick Effect

As of today, I've decided to coin a new term --The Bick Effect.  Millburn High School Senior Alison Bick has been named an Intel Science Finalist, an honor of truly huge proportions.  So Millburn does it again--proving the quality of the education in our town.  But wait, its really the Bick family who does it again, since Alison's older brother was also an Intel semi-finalist.  So great schools or great parents?  I assume the real answer is the mix of the two, but let's not forget that our exalted school system does well in part because of the students, and families, its working with. 


Congratulations to Alison!
