During a kickoff ceremony on October 4, Town of Oyster Bay Supervisor Joseph Saladino was joined by Councilwoman Michele Johnson, Councilman Lou Imbroto, Councilman Tom Hand, Town Clerk Rich LaMarca, Assemblyman Michael Durso, 1st Vice President of the Superior Officers Association Edward J. Perkins and President of the Detectives Association John Wighaus.
Jericho elementary school renamed for former principal The Robert Seaman Elementary School was recently renamed the Jeffrey Ratner Robert Seaman Elementary School to honor Jeffrey Ratner, a former administrator in the Jericho School District. Jeff was named principal of the then newly re-opened Robert Seaman Elementary School in 1996. “From day one, Jeff touched the lives of everyone,” said Superintendent Hank Grishman. “He possessed an innate ability to make you feel more special than you really were. He quickly became an integral part of the administrative team and his input was invaluable.” Jeff retired in 2007, but his love for the students and the field of education brought him out of his retirement when he became an interim assistant principal of Jericho High School in 2017. He served in that position until his death in 2019. Family and friends gathered to celebrate the school renaming and remember Jeff, their friend. A video of the ceremony is available here: https://bit.ly/3Bpy3be.
“The Town’s Blue Ribbon campaign encourages residents to show their support for men and women in blue by decorating their homes, businesses, storefronts or trees with blue ribbon,” said Supervisor Saladino. Anyone who would like to receive a complimentary strand of blue ribbon from the Town of Oyster Bay can contact the Town via Facebook or call (516) 624-6380.
