Do You Know This School?

Not a pretty sight for Cadets coming to Jersey City tomorrow. Let’s just hope it has been cleaned up because this photo was taken last week, March 29 to be exact. If it is in front of the school, is it safe to assume that the students were the ones who left these garbage? Do you know the name of this school?
Clue: It is on Duncan Avenue, between West Side and John F. Kennedy. 
Do you know now? If you get it right, you get an online “hi-five” from me.

I took this picture, and to me it looked like some vandal had emptied out a garbage bag from the school cafeteria, so I think the students are not to blame. But litter IS a big problem In Jersey City, compared to other places I’ve lived. It seems as if people do not care about their surroundings, like they do not identify with this place. I get the feeling that many people regard living here as either a temporary hardship they have to put up with, or they are stuck here for good and hate it. There seems to be no civic pride in much of Jersey City’s residents, despite obvious efforts by the city’s leaders to make this place more livable (the Journal Square makeover, for example).
Another thing that baffles me: I have seen store owners sweep the pavement, and all they do is sweep the garbage down the curb, or even in front of the store next to them. They do not pick the stuff up! What gives?
