East Islip Is First Long Island High School To Offer Stony Brook ACE Credits In Art
Beginning with the 20232024 school year, East Islip High School will be the first Long Island school to offer college credit to art students through Stony Brook University’s Accelerated College Education program. The ACE program offers academically talented high school students the convenience of enrolling in Stony Brook University courses taught in their high school, which can be later applied as credits toward a degree at Stony Brook or transferred to another college or university.
The idea began in 2021, after East Islip Director of Art and Music Dr. Rob Wottawa formed a relationship with SBU ACE Program coordinators through his work with East Islip’s World Language
Department. During the 2022-2023 school year, the art department reviewed its art course curriculums to determine which courses aligned with SBU courses and began developing a syllabus for Photography I and Digital Imaging and Design I. After a year of working alongside with SBU, East Islip was approved to offer college credit to its art students.
“I am so grateful for the opportunity to pursue my goals in graphic design and advertising and earn college credit here at East Islip High School before I graduate,” National Art Honor Society president Sophie Jensen said.
“I am excited that we are the first school district on Long Island to offer college credits for our art department,” art teacher Heather Toomey said. “It
is an amazing opportunity that Stony Brook offers college-level curriculum while students are still in high school, and I have the honor of teaching it. I look forward for this wonderful partnership and hope it continues to grow. I’d also like to thank Dr. Wottawa for assisting on this endeavor and being instrumental with his support and dedication.”
“I am so proud of the work we accomplished,” Dr. Wottawa said. “I spent countless hours on Zoom calls with Stony Brook curriculum specialists, reviewed and revised our work, and met with our teaching team frequently. We could not have achieved this opportunity without the work of Mrs. Toomey. She is dedicated to our stu

LEGO Girls Take On Innovation Challenge
The LEGO Girls, East Islip’s FIRST Lego League competition team consisting of John F. Kennedy Elementary School fifthgraders Jayne Elliott, Sonali Kamath and Antonia Rezza, started their season by researching this year’s FIRST Innovation Challenge of showcasing how best to
create an immersive report on a topic that they are passionate about. The East Islip trio chose to explore how museums and theaters work cohesively to tell a grand story.
Their project research began with a trip to the Oakdale Performing Arts Center to learn from the
cast and crew of “Into the Woods.” The team met with several members of the cast and crew, including the stage manager and music and set directors, and even had the opportunity to go behind the scenes to tour the changing room and costume area and view the set itself while it was being built.

and the lighting of the Town Hall cupola purple.
“Islip Goes Purple symbolizes our continued commitment to stand together, UNITED in memory of the lives lost, those in recovery, those struggling, and the families throughout the Town of Islip and across Long
Island impacted by mental illness, struggling with mental health, and those affected by a substance use disorder…and it does not discriminate, it can affect anyone, regardless of economic or social status,” said Islip Supervisor, Angie Carpenter.
“For the last 4 years,
Islip community members, business owners and community partners have been pivotal in the success of Islip Goes Purple, which is one way we can come together as a community,” said Supervisor Carpenter. The effort has grown throughout Nassau and Suffolk Counties, with
Brookhaven, Babylon and Huntington Townships following the Town of Islip and lighting their communities purple, along with Massapequa Park in the Town of Oyster Bay.
“Having elected officials from the Federal, State, and County levels joining us here today is testament
to the fact that substance use disorder, mental illness and caring for one’s own mental health are paramount issues at the forefront of what we as elected officials must be prepared to address and tackle,” added the Supervisor.

Islip Buccaneers Win 2023 Suffolk Senior Championship
On August 24, 2023, at the Brookhaven Diamond in the Pines Ballpark in Coram, NY the Islip Bucs defeated the Brookhaven Sledgehammers in a four-game sweep of the divisional playoffs. The Bucs rebounded from a tough first year in the senior league in 2022 going 0 -50 in their first year of existence. In 2022 the majority of the players on the team had not played competitive softball in almost 20 years. They suffered through injuries and a tough losing season. However, manager Bob Patch had the foresight that with some hard work and the addition of a few new players, the team would be more successful and could turn things around in 2023. The 2023 season started with some tough practices in the cold rainy spring months of March and April but the Bucs were ready for a more successful season. The Bucs went 29-19 during the regular season finishing in 2nd place and won four straight games in the playoffs to secure the division title. Team members

Lung Association Launches First LUNG FORCE Walk
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths on Long Island –and throughout the U.S. In an effort to end lung cancer, the American Lung Association is launching its first ever LUNG FORCE Walk Long Island at Eisenhower Park on October 7, 2023
LUNG FORCE initiative unites those impacted by lung cancer and their caregivers to stand together against lung
cancer. LUNG FORCE Walks happen all around the county as celebratory and welcoming events that provides critical funds for lifesaving lung cancer research, early detection initiatives and awareness. The New York City Walk, which took place in May, saw more than 1,000 people participate, raising over $275,000.
Registration for the Long Island event is open
631.226.2636
at LUNGFORCE.org/ LongIsland
“The Long Island community has been deeply impacted by Lung Cancer, and many Long Island residents have joined us for events in Manhattan and the Hudson Valley. This year, we are proud to bring our LUNG FORCE walk right here to Eisenhower Park where more families impacted by lung disease are able to participate,”
said Erica Masin, Executive Director at the Lung Association.
“Today, more Americans than ever are surviving lung cancer. The survival rate has increased by nearly 40% in the past decade—but there is still so much work to be done. On October 7 Long Island residents will come together to lighten the burden for people living with lung disease, honor the memory of
those we’ve lost, and lift up those who need our support.”
Nicole Sturiano, a resident of Ridge, New York and captain of Team Jeanine has helped raise over $50,000 and has participated in the New York City LUNG FORCE Walk since its inception in 2015. She said, “My sister, Jeanine, was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer at only 42 years old. After just
two years of fighting the toughest battle of her life, Jeanine passed away on December 1, 2015. Our team has been walking to carry on the legacy of my sister, to advance the effort to find a cure, and to bring awareness to lung cancer. I hope one day to see a world free of lung cancer so that no one has to suffer the way my sister did, and no one

The Foods You Eat Could Affect Whether Or Not You Can Donate
The foods a person eats before attempting to donate blood could affect whether or not he or she is allowed to donate. According to the American Red Cross, its staff members routinely check the level of hemoglobin in donors’ blood and platelets before they accept donations. Hemoglobin is a protein

in the body that contains iron and gives blood its distinctive red color.
Hemoglobin plays a vital role in human health, carrying oxygen from the lungs to nourish all of the tissues in the body. Hemoglobin levels are checked using fingersticks, and if hemoglobin levels are low, then donors will be
asked to wait to donate until their levels return to normal. So what does food have to do with hemoglobin? Iron is a part of hemoglobin and found in many of the foods a person eats. Iron helps people maintain their strength and energy, and it’s also necessary to help the body make new blood cells to replace the
ones that are lost through blood donations. The Red Cross encourages prospective donors to eat healthy foods that are rich in iron and high in vitamin C, as doing so can increase their chances of being accepted as blood donors and can aid in their recoveries after donating.

Association to defeat lung cancer, improve the air we breathe, reduce the burden of lung disease on individuals and their families, and eliminate tobacco use and tobaccorelated diseases.
