Honors, Accolades & Praise The East Meadow Board of Education recognized the accomplishments of students, community and board members, as well as other achievements during their April 21st communication meeting.

Woodland Middle School Principal James Lethbridge and W. T. Clarke Middle School Principal Stacy Breslin acknowledged the March and April “Terrific Kids.” The Terrific Kids program is sponsored by the

East Meadow Kiwanis Club to recognize sixth-, seventhand eighth-grade students who constantly improve as individuals, students and members of the community.

Initiated by trustee Jeffrey Rosenking, the board established a new tradition to recognize the contributions of community veterans who served our country.

During the meeting, the board and central administration honored Michael C. Ambrosio with

the Distinguished Service Award for his service in World War II. Mr. Ambrosio, an East Meadow resident for more than 60 years, served as an Army Air Corps Regimen on B-17 Flight Fortress in the 447th bomb group and was a member of the Mighty Eighth Air Force.

Following this prestigious award, Vice President Marcee Rubinstein and trustee Brian O’Flaherty were recognized for their

additional training as board members. The board presented Ms. Rubinstein and Mr. O’Flaherty with the Board of Excellence Award for participation in the New York State School Board Association’s Recognition Program.

The East Meadow Supervisory and Administrative Association applauded the board for their continued efforts in service to the district throughout the school

strengthen the partnership with the entire staff to benefit the community.

In addition, the East Meadow Custodial and Maintenance Unit thanked the board of education for praising the work of the custodial and maintenance staff. The unit commended the board and acknowledged their dedication and sincere appreciation for the work the custodial and maintenance staff provide.

Third Place Fourteen art students from East Meadow High School attended the New York State Art Teachers Association’s 2016 Olympics of the Visual Arts program, held in Saratoga Springs, on April 21st, placing third in the

Photography category.

OVA offers students an opportunity to solve artistic problems using historical references, brainstorming, problemsolving and creative solutions in eight different categories: architecture,

Origami Project photography, fashion design, sculpture, painting, drawing, illustration and graphic design.

The district congratulates these students for their hard work and creativity during the competition.

Fifth-grade students at Shore Road in Bellmore gathered at lunchtime to support the Book Fairies organization. In addition to donating new or gently used books, students were given the opportunity to make two origami corner

owl, penguin, minion, monster or frog bookmarks for a $1 donation, one to keep and one to donate.

The project culminated after the students interviewed Book Fairies organization founder Amy Zaslansky for biography-

writing project. They also created and produced a commercial, taped on an iPad, promoting the Origami Project. The Random Acts of Kindness Club also collected books to donate to the organization.

Undefeated Again Salk Middle School’s wrestling team in Levittown completed their third consecutive undefeated season due to the hard work and dedication of 55 student athletes. This season’s highlight was a showdown between the Salk Seahawks and East Meadow School

District’s Woodland Middle School Jets.

A pin by Salk Middle School’s Michael Randazzo, followed with Salk victories by Thomas Szilagyi, Joe Apuzzo, Jason Dinh, Shane Lazina, Jimmy Mahoney and Ryan Bray put Levittown in the lead. Remarkably, Salk also

won every overall matchup against their opponents.

In addition, the dominant heavyweights were Dan Calderon, Louis Calone, Jason Razzo, Dylan Young and Joe Esposito.

The district congratulates the team on this outstanding season.

Arrive Alive Wellington C. Mepham High School students were driving recklessly in the back parking lot of the school, swerving, almost crashing into parked cars and just missing pedestrians. The simulations were all part of the Arrive Alive Tour to promote awareness about the impacts of impaired and distracted driving.

Arrive Alive, a drunk and distracted driving education program and simulator demonstration sponsored by the Community Parent Center, Bellmore-Merrick Central High School District and Mepham, is hosted in partnership with State

Farm Insurance and the Allyson Rosenblatt Memorial Fund.

Using a high-tech simulator and special goggles, the Arrive Alive program allowed 200 Mepham students to experience first-hand, the dangers of drinking and driving and texting while driving without the deadly consequences in a safe, controlled environment.

In addition to the simulator, the New York State Police brought the Seat Belt Convincer to Mepham to demonstrate the importance of always wearing a seat belt. The Seat Belt Convincer is an educational tool that

simulates a low impact vehicle crash. It allowed the students to experience forces, of up to five times their body weight, similar to that of a 5 to 7 mph crash.

“When it comes to car safety, wearing a seat belt could be the difference between life or death in a car crash,” said Wendy Tepfer, Executive Director of the Community Parent Center. “Driving impaired or distracted can be deadly.

Our goal is to keep our teen drivers safe. If we saved one life as a result of these activities, then we have done our job.”

Hope for the Future By: John McGowan

How have things gotten So confusing and strained?

Where is the answer to this societal pain?

Years ago, you stood on the left or the right A clear path to follow was always in sight Now times have changed The lines not as clear So much to ponder, so much to fear Will our next leader be the one Who can straighten the ship?

One who can bring us safely to port I’m hoping it will happen And we won’t come up short.

together we can do more

Lofty goals Dare I indulge Climb out on that ledge Throw caution to the wind Will I fall or will I fly No matter which My obsession to try Used to be easy Decisions to make But aging can daunt The bolder path to take In quiet moments I channel my thoughts Have faith – be confident Endless possibilities not to be fought Always keep reaching Knowing there is more Curious to what awaits behind the next door Yours for the taking Just look around Waste not a moment Finally...homeward bound

SAFE PLACE SUBMITTED BY: NYAH JONES, AGE 12, BAY SHORE MIDDLE SCHOOL

Green, Swaying lusciously, As it dances with the wind, Greener than a lime, And softer than, A cotton ball, Grass is a safe place.

Grass is a cushion, For the dirty, hard ground, When you fall, Grass is there as a pillow, To lift you up,

And make you feel safe again, Grass is a safe place.

Grass is a home, For tiny ants, Wiggly worms and flying beetles.

When you step or stomp on the grass, Think, You could be destroying, An organism’s safe place, An ant traveling, To get food for its

family, So just stop and think…

Grass is a safe place.

Grass is a blessing, Creates beautiful dew drops, Drip, drop, drip, drop, Drops that glisten, In the golden warm sun, On a bright summer’s day.

Grass is a safe place.

HIT THE JACKPOT?

On April 21st, all three schools in the Merrick School District participated in a full day of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math experiments.

The district’s STEM Day provided students with an opportunity to explore 12 STEM-themed stations where they collaborated, built and investigated with the help of Science Enrichment Program fifth- and sixthgrade students.

Students in kindergarten through second grade visited five stations including Structures, Ramp Racing, Mystery Box, Color Paddles and Bridge Design.

The “Structures” station challenged students to build the tallest building using recyclable materials. At the “Ramp Race” station, children conducted trials to see which ramp made their racecar travel the farthest. The group used their sense of touch to determine what items were inside each box at the “Mystery Box” station. While at the “Color Paddles” station, students wore “world of one color” glasses to sort through various colors to see how one color filters out the other colors.

Lastly, the younger students examined the durability of bridges by testing out various construction paper bridges using the weight of pennies.

Third- through sixthgraders explored seven advanced STEM stations including Rocketry, MythBusters, Structures, Forensics/CSI, Hidden Messages, Rube Goldberg and Engineering.

At the “Rocketry” station, upperclassmen created paper airplanes and hoop gliders to test the strength, distance and power of their

that abuse of narcotics such as painkillers are a gateway to illegal street drugs such as heroin.

“We encourage all Bellmore-Merrick parents and community members to help fight prescription drug abuse by safely disposing of unwanted and expired medicines,” said Wendy Tepfer, executive director of the Community Parent Center. “The drug take back program provides a safe, convenient and responsible way to dispose of prescription

drugs, while also educating the community about the potential for abuse of medications.

Additionally, the event helps the environment by discouraging people from using the typical disposal method, flushing unused pills or dumping them in the solid waste stream.

This keeps them out of the drinking water system and landfills.”

with Buddy the Betta

A Buddy for Buddy By: Jamie Lynn Ryan

Readers have been writing in lately, inquiring as to my whereabouts, my wellbeing, my latest exploits…

So I’m here, as requested, to fill you all in on my comings and goings – well, as much as one can come and go in the confines of a one-gallon aquarium, but you know…

The latest bit of exciting news – potentially, anyway – is my Human’s impending purchase of a friend for me!

Yes, that’s right, Buddy the Betta will soon be accompanied by the likes of a small, colorful (but not too colorful), aquatic snail.

I’m thinking purple, to

complement my gorgeous aqua fins.

The best part is that, in addition to having a companion for those ohso-long days when my Human leaves me to my own devices, my new little friend can also serve as a portable vacuum cleaner of sorts. With my larger residence, the maintenance can be a bit much, and I do like immaculate living quarters.

I’ve even picked out a name – “Squeegee.” Oh what fun we will have together, so long as he keeps those long tentacles off my delicate fins, of course... and away from my food… and off of my favorite bedtime leaf… and, well, we’ll see how it

goes. This could be shortlived.

Other than that, life in the bowl is pretty much status quo. I’m going on 15 months old, still as vibrant and beautiful (and humble) as ever, and my Human has graduated to feeding me twice a day – small portions, but still, I’ll take what I can get. It’s a good life – especially when Grammy comes to visit and makes kissy-faces at me.

‘Til next time, this is Buddy, anxiously awaiting the arrival of my new googly-eyed roommate.

Stay tuned for the next installment: The Adventures of Buddy & Squeegee in an upcoming issue.

HEARING HELP IS AN IMPORTANT DECISION

The Mandalay Elementary School PTA in Wantagh held its annual Special Events Day on April 22nd. Because this annual event fell on Earth Day, the activities were mostly geared toward celebrating the Earth.

In addition to wearing green and blue clothing, the students colored and designed footprints for a school mural and reflected

about how their footprint will leave a mark on Earth.

There were also assemblies, including the opportunity for students in grades K-2 to create Earth Day crafts from 100 percent recycled materials.

Students in grades 3-5 watched “Our Endangered Earth” and learned solutions to problems for making the Earth a better place to live for the future.

Eric the Reptile Guy also shared his reptiles from around the world, including Fluffy the 10foot snake and Wally the alligator.

Each student brought home a Hexbug, a robotics creature, and multiple take-home science experiments to work on over spring break.

Honoring Mother Earth Wantagh Elementary School first-graders, dressed in uniquely decorated Earth Day themed T-shirts, commemorated Earth Day through song, art and writing on April 22nd.

Under the direction

of music teacher Beth Marinis, the students sang about protecting the environment and the importance of recycling.

Family members were then invited to the classrooms where classes showcased poetry readings, Earth Day

posters and class murals, student reflections and art projects, indicating that the theme “Earth Day Every Day.” They also enjoyed special snacks of fruits, as well as a chocolate pudding “dirt treat” with gummy worms.

Marching in Full Bloom The W.T. Clarke High School marching band performed in the Washington, D.C. National Cherry Blossom Festival Parade on April 16th.

Spectators gathered in the streets to see

giant colorful helium balloons, intricate floats, celebrity entertainers and performers and marching bands from across the country parade down Constitution Avenue in honor of the nation’s

greatest springtime celebration.

The district commends the marching band for their musical talents and performance during the parade.

Don’t Stay Idle Long periods of time spent sitting idly can increase your risk of developing blood clots

in the legs, a potentially fatal condition known as deep-vein thrombosis (DVT). Simple and short

exercises while in route may decrease your chances of developing a serious medical complication.

Beantown Visit

Recently, Wantagh’s Troop 96 ventured off to Boston and camped at Camp Sayre, also know as New England Base Camp.

They started off with a visit to the Boston Museum of Science. While there, they saw an IMAX movie called National Parks Adventure and saw the various exhibits in the museum. Those exhibits included the Hall of

Human Life, The Theater of Electricity, Frogs: A Chorus of Colors and many others.

The next day, they hit the Freedom Trail.

Capturing Second

After finishing in first place at the Distributive Education Clubs of America State Career Conference, Sanford H. Calhoun High School senior Irene Kowalski traveled to the DECA International Career Development Conference in Nashville, Tennessee and took home the secondplace award.

Kowalski, who is currently the president of New York State DECA, selected the Start-Up Business Plan Event. The purpose of the event is to provide an opportunity for the participant to develop and present a proposal to form a business. The event allows the participant to House, The Old North develop and demonstrate Church and the Bunker a mastery of essential Hill Monument. While on Bunker Hill, there was a man dressed in period attire that explained what happened on Bunker Hill.

He even shot off a gun to show them how the gun worked.

The boys all enjoyed lunch at Quincy Market.

It was a fantastic, fun and educational trip.

knowledge and skills as they apply them to the analysis of a business opportunity.

It is the first year that DECA has offered this type of event that focuses on a Lean Entrepreneurship Model. Kowalski’s start-up is known as Generation, a bio-informatics company that stores genetic barcodes in a compatible format so that laboratories worldwide can collaborate more easily and efficiently.

“Generation’s main goal is to provide an interface for geneticists that helps them research effectively to come up with more personalized medicinal techniques in less time,” said Kowalski.

“Irene was well-

versed and extremely knowledgeable on her business model and her entrepreneurship skills truly shined,” added Peter Palazzo, a business teacher at Calhoun.

Irene is a member of the National Honor Society and enrolled in various advanced placement and college level classes. She has been a member of DECA since freshman year and plans to attend Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan this fall.

DECA is unlike any other club offered in high school.

It is a nationally recognized business organization that brings the work world into the classroom.

Levittown elementary school students and their parents were invited to attend District Music Night, held at MacArthur High School, as a first step in exploring this popular Grammy School awardwinning program.

“You have chosen wisely to have your students study instrumental music,” District Curriculum Associate for Music Vincent

D’Ulisse said to the parents.

“This is not just the study of music, but the coming together as an ensemble.”

After performances by the MacArthur High School symphonic band and orchestra, participants were invited to join the performers in the gymnasium to take an up-close look at the instruments offered. It was also an excellent way for

the students and parents to speak to the musicians and the music program staff.

Parents were encouraged to register their child for an instrument for the 2016-2017 school CAPTURING SECOND - Calhoun teacher and trip chaperone Marissa Levinson, year.

Cinco de Mayo Recognized At John F. Kennedy High School, the World Languages department is recognizing Cinco de Mayo in a variety of ways.

Melissa Schickler’s Spanish classes collected nonrecyclable wrappers from tortillas, chips and other food products typically consumed for Cinco de Mayo; this

coincides with a unit on the environment in her level 3 classes.

In John Reilly’s ninthgrade level 2 honors class, students have been working on cultural comparison projects about various celebrations in Spanish-speaking countries. Additionally, a presentation by Lindsey

Moser and Sydney Schwinger focused on Cinco de Mayo.

“They included information about how Cinco de Mayo is celebrated in Mexico and made cultural comparisons to our Fourth of July holiday celebration,” explained Renée Fallon, World Languages chairperson.

One Voice, One Message Ambassadors from the Bellmore-Merrick Central High School District’s “One Voice, One Message,” a districtwide, student-led think tank, stood before the board of education on May 4th, touting the program’s success and accomplishments.

“We made a lot of progress in a short time,” said John F. Kennedy High School senior Alex Dobosh.

“You had kids going back to their schools and talking about events and initiatives in the hallways to get others excited.”

One such event was a districtwide Day of Service, organized in conjunction with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday.

“This act was an effective way to follow in the footsteps of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.,” said Marco Hanna, an eighthgrader at Merrick Avenue Middle School.

Items were collected, sorted, packed and delivered to families in need, a collaborative effort between the district’s staff and 5,600 students.

“This process has made me a better leader, listener and helper,” said Liam Orr, a student at Grand Avenue Middle School.

Sara Samir, a student from Sandford H. Calhoun High School, praised the success of the recent OVOM 5K Run/Walk, which raised money for an organization that aides in bringing clean drinking water to people in developing countries.

“The success truly shows what BMCHSD is capable of achieving,” Samir added.

Created in March of 2014, student ambassadors from the district’s four high schools and two middle schools join together throughout the school year to address issues impacting the student body and

surrounding community.

“When the middle schools were included, it made us feel like our feelings and voices were being heard,” said Jillian Mayer, a Grand Avenue Middle School student.

They work closely with teachers and administrators to achieve ONE VOICE, ONE MESSAGE - Members of the “One Voice, One Message” district goals, thus Committee along with student ambassadors at the May 4th board of education meeting. fostering the “One Voice, Photo courtesy of: Bellmore-Merrick Central High School District One Message” initiative.

“We hope this has lasting impacts on these students,” said Superintendent John DeTommaso. “When you have a program like this that is self-generating, it works.”

It would seem so, as Tim Tracy of Wellington C. Mepham High School, noted that through this program, he has “learned that one small action can make an outstanding impact on society.”
