Senior Lenny Giordano was talking during lunch about what he saw at Asbury Park High School last month.

"There's a lot less students in a classroom, and the schedules are very different," he said. "They have longer periods. Their lunchroom is smaller than ours. They also get a free lunch. Here we have to wait on line to get lunch. It takes a long time.

"I knew it was going to be different," the 18-year-old said. "It was pretty cool. It was different to see security guards in the hallway, and people there move more quickly."

He stopped for a moment and offered some of his barbecued potato chips to his partner from Asbury Park High School, junior Saufeeyah Purvis, 16, one of 24 Asbury Park students visiting Freehold Township High School Tuesday.
