St. John the Baptist Diocesan High School has announced that their Spring Musical for this year will be Disney’s The Little Mermaid. St. John’s will be the first Catholic High School on Long Island to perform “The Little Mermaid,” as its rights were only recently released. Opening night is scheduled for March 4th but there is already a sense of excitement among the students, faculty, and staff. “We are very excited to perform Disney’s The Little Mermaid on stage! Our directors, actors, dancers and singers are practicing with great enthusiasm and looking forward to providing their audiences with their very best performances!” stated Principal Nan Doherty. The Musical Producer, Mr. Vincent Whitfield, also expressed his excitement over the production, “St. John the Baptist DHS is both pleased and excited to present the full stage version of Disney’s The Little Mermaid. This wonderful story of love, sacrifice and family will

take us on a journey from a prince’s ballroom to the exciting world that exists “under the sea!” We invite you to join us for this family experience with beloved songs, special effects, and delightful characters.” Two seniors, Miranda Cooper and Jillian Graffagnino, have been dual cast in the role of Ariel. When asked about being dual cast as Ariel, the two seniors stated,“It is very exciting to be playing the role of Ariel together. We are so impressed with everyone’s hard work and commitment so far and can’t wait to see the show come together.” Historically, St. John’s has enjoyed a rich tradition

of success with their Spring Musical. Several St. John’s graduates have gone on to perform in major productions all of over Long Island, on Disney’s Cruise Lines, and on Broadway. St. John’s performers are annually nominated for a variety of different Teeny awards, have received nominations to the prestigious Gershwin Awards Program in New York City, and have participated in the National High School Music Theatre Awards. All are invited to come out to see St. John’s production of The Little Mermaid at 7:30 p.m. on March 4th, 5th, and a 2 p.m. performance on March 6th.

Here’s Hoping Hope: A feeling of expectation and desire for a particular thing to happen. And so it begins. February, the month of anticipation, from furry groundhogs predicting the forecast to expressions of love and affection come Valentine’s Day. Is there anyone who isn’t even the slightest bit glad to bid January farewell? Apologies, once again, to anyone with birthdays, anniversaries and other notable milestones during this first month of the new year, the symbolic representation of all things new and fresh. With the possible exception of the few moments of New Year’s Eve celebrations which spilled over into the next morning, I have to

say that, for me, 2016 is severely lacking in positive spin. Sure, winter has spared us its wrath for the most part…save for one tiny twofoot helping of the white stuff. Still, the bitter cold and gray, overcast skies leave something to be desired. There is only so much hibernating and vegetating one can realistically do. (Netflix, anyone?) But here we are, turning the page – on the calendar and hopefully on life – as month two begins, providing us with yet another blank canvas to fill. Here’s to getting back to doing those things which make us happy, to not allowing the negativity of other individuals and situations dictate our moods, to rising above the monotony in search of fulfillment.

Here’s to hoping that February provides the perfect precursor to spring, and all the beauty and wonderment it brings. Plus, we have an extra day to take advantage of this year, a bonus opportunity if ever there was one. Now all we have to do is make use of it, and of all those clichéd philosophies we want so badly to believe in. Whatever it is you are hoping for, may you have the courage to go after it. Good things come to those who wait; but a pointed step in the right direction surely doesn’t hurt. Here’s to February, to frosted windowpanes and picturesque winter sunsets and the beginnings of revitalization. Oh, and of course Buddy the Betta’s 1st birthday. Priorities humans, priorities.

students from across Long Island, and Long Island University. Other attendees will include superintendents and prospective students. Joel, a strong supporter of the arts in public schools, wrote a letter in November 2015 to the Nassau BOCES Board expressing his support for LIHSA’s continuation. The Syosset-based arts program is funded by student tuition from public school districts. Enrollments have been declining for the last

several years due to the New York State property tax levy cap. Good teachers have made an impact on Joel. “I went to public school on Long Island and I am grateful for the music program and my music teachers for helping provide me the tools for which I have based my career,” Joel wrote in the letter. He hopes that his support will bring awareness to the need for rigorous arts education options such as LIHSA. The afternoon promises to

be freewheeling and funloving. Joel will be spinning yarns, playing music and offering snippets of advice to the aspiring musicians in the house. LIHSA instructors, who are all working professionals in the arts, focus on cultivating their students’ talents and building skills towards a career pathway in the arts. Major focus areas include dance, film, music, theatre and visual arts. Learn more at www.nassauboces.org/ lihsa.

Student Spotlight THE BLUE GLASSES SUBMITTED BY: COLLIN SLATTERY, AGE 11, EAST LAKE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Vrooommm! The sound of the car engine was all I could hear. I just got back from the eye doctor. Not good. I knew that someday I would get them, but now? I was only 3 years-old. I looked at my mom and brother. They were talking, but I could not hear them. My brother might have been thinking, “Now I have this loser brother with glasses.” I bet he would have said something but my mom would not let him. She simply wouldn’t. Then my mom took her phone out of her pocket and gave it to my brother. I saw him scroll down until the contact for my dad came up. I was starting to hear now, but faintly. My brother hit the “speaker” button on her phone. “Guess who is going to look even more handsome?” My dad guessed me on the first try. About five more minutes passed, and we were rolling down a “one-

way” parking lot entrance. I saw these menacing looking penguins out of the few inches of window space I had because I was so short. They were staring me down, those ugly penguins. I thought how silly I was to think those penguins are menacing. I thought how my eyes might be acting up or maybe the tinted window might be doing it. I looked up from the seemingly menacing penguins up to the name of the shop. It was called the Eyeglass House. Then we found a spot in the deserted parking lot. When I walked into the store, it was a room where I half expected there to be gas coming out of the wall like a torture chamber. It was a 6’x6’ room with a hat rack and a 2’x4’ bench. There was another door in front of me. I walked through the door, touching a dry, old, rusty doorknob. I looked to the left and saw two desks and at least 100 pairs

of glasses. I saw a bunch of chairs with a life-sized Mickey Mouse. I took a seat… “Slay-terry?” an old woman croaked. My mom, Aidan and I stood up and walked over. The old woman had bright purple glasses and nasty, old, ugly, horribly crooked teeth that reminded me of a beaver’s. She picked out three pairs and I disliked all of them. We tried on a green pair that I looked stupid in, a red pair that I liked the best, and heavy, vomit-worthy blue ones that had holes in the rims that kept the glasses on my face. The holes must have been there to catch a new fashion trend, but the only thing it was catching was strands of my hair. “I like these!” the nasty lady and Mom said. Moments after, we walked out with me wearing the blue glasses. I guess all stories don’t have happy endings.

If lead and copper concentrations exceed a certain level in more than 10 percent of customer samples, the system must take a number of actions to control the corrosion. The system is also required to inform people what steps they can take to replace lead service lines and safeguard their

water. All results of lead and copper testing are presented to Long Island residents each year in the Annual Water Supply Statement prepared by the individual water supplier and the tap water remains to be of the highest quality possible and safe to drink.

BE MORE POSITIVE, HAPPY, HEALTHY & SMART That is what you will learn by reading, Positivity! Unlike other books regarding happiness, this book builds a foundation on being smarter, obtaining the skills necessary toward gainful employment and managing money successfully. How can a person be happy if they do not have a good job, cannot give a good speech and cannot invest wisely? In the highly competitive world in which we live, a foundation must be built that makes people happy and healthy. The foundation starts with positive thinking and a healthy lifestyle but it should be coupled with continuing education and prowess in accumulating and managing money. This answers the question, how can a person be happy in today’s world. “Reading Positivity is a game changer for every reader. The unique wisdom and philosophy of life that Harry Edelson shares proves that life can be easy and joyful for everyone. Imagine a world if seven billion people lived by Positivity! Thank you for sharing this masterpiece. Harry Edelson has figured out true keys to a good life – which is the one common denominator everyone wants. And I know, because I’ve interviewed over 400 of the top CEOs, and I see a lot of wisdom and very successful people…and Harry has truly figured it out. What a gift you offer in this book.” ROBERT REISS, HOST & CEO, THE CEO SHOW “As Benjamin Franklin said: ‘An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.’ The wisdom in Harry Edelson’s book is like finding a great investment. It continues to grow in value and will pay dividends throughout your life. This is the same philosophy that the brilliant investor, George Soros, has advocated through his Open Society Foundations where I served as a Trustee for many years” JOHN W. ALLEN, INT’L INVESTMENT BANKER AND CHAIRMAN OF GREATER CHINA CORP “The interesting thing about Harry Edelson is that he is usually the smartest guy in the room and what is amazing, the happiest guy in the room. His book tells it all and can be easily absorbed by adults and students alike.” ELIZABETH KABLER, TRUSTEE, ANNENBERG FOUNDATION TRUST AT SUNNYLANDS, FOUNDER, NY CENTER FOR LIVING

Empire Girls State Islip High School junior Mimita Rahman was recently selected as the Rusy-Bohm American Legion Auxiliary candidate for the 2016 New York State Empire Girls State program, and fellow juniors Holly Iafrate and Marina Magoulas were chosen as alternates, awaiting an open position. Empire Girls State is a

Olympiad Invitational

Islip High School hosted its third annual Science Olympiad invitational tournament on December 12th, drawing teams from 55 schools from across Long Island, upstate New York, New York City, New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania. More than 800 students competed in events focused on areas in science and engineering, including the 23 national Science Olympiad events, the two New York State trial events and two fun trivia events. Currently the only tournament of its kind on Long Island at the high school level, this invitational event was sponsored by Long Island Stem Hub, Brookhaven National Laboratory, Molloy College and Stony Brook University. Stony EMPIRE GIRLS STATE - Islip High School Principal Michael Mosca; Rusy-Bohm Brook student volunteers American Legion Auxiliary Chairman Joan Smith; juniors and Empire Girls State honorees Holly Iafrate, Mimita Rahman and Marina Magoulas; teacher and RusyBohm member Renee Clock; Superintendent of Schools Susan Schnebel.

It is held annually each summer at SUNY Brockport. Candidates must be ranked in the top third of their class and

demonstrate patriotism, civic-mindedness, leadership and loyalty. “The ALA believes that educating youth about basic ideals and principles of government will help ensure our democracy’s survival,” said teacher and Rusy-Bohm member Renee Clock.

assisted with running and grading of the events The competition was tight, with the top five teams separated by a mere 35 points. First place out of 55 was Team A from Bayard Rustin High School of West Chester, Pennsylvania, with 143 points. Rounding out the top five were Princeton High School from New Jersey in second (156 points), Ward Melville High School from East Setauket in third (163 points), Spackenkill High School from Poughkeepsie in fourth (163 points) and West Windsor-Plainsboro High School North from New Jersey in fifth (178 points). Islip’s own three teams finished 25th, 31st and 46th. High school teams participate in regional competitions like Islip’s to earn a chance to reach

state competitions, held in March. “The national events held each year consistently change in an effort to stay current with the everchanging knowledge in the areas of biology, chemistry, physics, geology, mechanical engineering and technology,” said Matthew Christiansen, Islip High School’s science/ business chairperson. “In order to be successful, students must be able to work together in order to prepare for either the written examinations or the trials of their built devices. The invitational tournaments therefore help the attendees gauge areas where they might need further preparation before the decisive regional competitions.”

Cooperative Collections Patriotic students at East Islip Middle School’s Builders Club have continued to find ways to honor those who have served in the U.S. military, both veterans and currently deployed service personnel.

Most recently, the club worked cooperatively with middle school teachers Melissa Henderson and Barbara Huether, running class collections, creating cards and decorating boxes for two Marine Corps units overseas. Shipping was

provided by several parent volunteers and school staff members. The Builders Club students were also invited to American Legion Post 94 in Babylon, where they thanked the veterans.

The American Heart Association (AHA) wants you to GO RED on Friday, February 5th for National Wear Red Day to help shine a light on the number one killer of men and women heart disease. Companies, community organizations and residents are invited to get creative to make landmarks, main streets, buildings and homes “Go Red” to kick off February’s American Heart Month. “This is such a simple way to make a difference in our community. Every red heart, red ribbon or red dress in a store window reminds women, and all of us, how important our hearts are. Heart healthy should be our main priority in February and all year long to prevent our number one killer,” said Dr. Scott Schubach, President of the Long Island American Heart Association Board of Directors and Chairman of the Department of Thoracic & Cardiovascular

Surgery at WinthropUniversity Hospital. In addition to landmarks going red, thousands of employees will participate in National Wear Red Day by donating $5 to the Go Red For Women campaign. In turn, they will receive a red dress pin or wristband, and lifesaving heart health education. Some organizations will offer heart healthy lunch and learn programs, organize healthy walks, or offer healthier foods in vending machines or cafeterias. To sign up, visit www. wearredday.org or call the AHA at 516.962.0794. The AHA’s Go Red For Women movement focuses on women’s heart health awareness in February because far too many women are still unaware of the facts that heart disease is their number one killer--killing more women than all forms of cancer combined; or that the symptoms of heart

This lack of awareness means that more women than men are dying from heart disease and stroke. Go Red For Women’s goal is to save women’s lives. The good news is that more than 80% of heart disease events in women can be prevented by making EAST ISLIP HONOREE - Rep.

The AHA also encourages women to get their “well-woman visit” at their doctor’s office to help detect the early signs of heart disease.

Lauded by LISFA Eight exceptional music students from East Islip were selected for this year’s Long Island String Festival Association concerts, recognizing them as being among the top string orchestra players in Suffolk County in their age group. They were chosen by LISFA based on recommendations from their orchestra teacher and scoring results from last year’s New York State School Music Association Solo Festival. East Islip High School senior cellist Karli

Pipitone, junior double bassist Devin Thelemann and freshman violinist Victoria Keenan; and East Islip Middle School eighthgrade double bassist Peter Gerace will all perform at LISFA’s Suffolk Secondary concert, to be held January 31st at Ward Melville High School in East Setauket. East Islip Middle School seventh-grade viola players Noelle Naccarato and Michelle Mirabelli, and seventh-grade double bassist Mia Lembo; and John F. Kennedy Elementary School fifth-

grade violinist Keira Ann Tantillo played at LISFA’s Suffolk Elementary concert, held January 17th at Smithtown West High School. “We are so very proud of our hardworking orchestral students,” said Robert Wottawa, the district’s director of art and music. “This once-ayear opportunity provides our string students with the experiences of working with professional conductors and students from all across Long Island.”

A Little Bird

Send Us Your Best Pics To Be Featured

By: Alexandra H. Rodrigues

The little bluebird knew That hard would be the times ahead Impossible nearly to find crumbs of bread Already that little bird was weak When in my garden food it did seek All the other birds by now had flown south Fireplaces lit up in many a house. I stand outside, hear how the bluebird sings I can see how it flutters with its tiny wings It does not complain Nor harp on any pain. It still praises the universe with its song Confident that his God cannot do wrong

ISLIP - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 3, 2016 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

I would like to care for it and take it in here But it belongs to the outside sphere So I will try to make it stronger Help it to survive a good time longer. Bird food I got, knowing that bread is not right For the morning I put it out late at night Of a cat that comes around I am afraid Minced meat out of other birds it had made.

“Man & His Dog” - Gardiners Park Photo by: Denise M. Poveromo, Copiague

I had honest feelings for my little bird Which through cosmic waves I think it heard It found a bush where it was safe It took the cold so very brave. Its singing got stronger Its excursion flights got longer By spring it had proven it would not accept defeat With the flock of from south returned birds it did meet.

A Sunset of Hope By: John McGowan

Christmas is behind and winter is now But a beach at sunset renewed my vow To keep moving forward and not look back There’s good things ahead to keep me on track And if a bad day appears and rears its formidable head I’ll stay in the moment and think good thoughts instead As the sun lowers like a bright nugget of gold I’ll resolve to stand tall, resolute and bold.

In addition to the full database, there are also special searches for specific populations including veteran’s services, services for those who are developmentally disabled and their caregivers and informational updates during weather emergencies. This information, as well as a community calendar of events, can be viewed through multimedia platforms including Facebook and Twitter. United Way of Long Island coordinates the LI region and call center and the Middle Country Public Library maintains and updates the database that provides the information for the call center. Middle Country Public Library provides training to the public on using the database at the library or by special appointment for larger groups or organizations. Interested parties can contact Lori Abbatepaolo at abbatepaololori@middlecountrypubliclibrary.org or at 631.585.9393, ext. 295. For more information, visit www.211longisland. org or call 2-1-1 or 1.888.774.7633.

It also gave me a good opportunity to enter the Long Island’s Best competition and express my creativity.” “Our AP students are extremely hard working and dedicated,” said teacher Heather Toomey. “They are talented and creative, and participating in programs like this will offer them valuable opportunities that will enhance their college applications as well as provide them with creative challenges where they can express themselves

visually through their art. I was impressed by their critiquing abilities – they were professional and insightful. It was also really fantastic that the program provided everyone with free passes to visit the Heckscher Museum in person to view the artwork on exhibit.” “The Heckscher’s visit to our school was enriching and beneficial for our AP art students, introducing them to a variety of artworks currently on exhibit at the museum,” said teacher Dan Figliozzi. “I am excited to see what original works our students create in response to the works exhibited. This really is a great opportunity for all students to share and exhibit their work to a larger public audience.”
